LV RT2010 on PXI-8145RT - cannot upgrade the BIOS

Hello

My lab has a pair of PXI systems controlled by 8145RT PXI and LabView 2010 because we have not upgraded for awhile. As far as I know, this controller should be usable with LV2010 RT.

However, when I try to install the software on the target using MAX, I get a message informing me that the software I would like to install (LV - Rt 10.0) is incompatible with the operating system loaded on the machine. The ethernet driver install without problem, for what it is worth.

When you try to upgrade the BIOS, I first got a message that the controller contains the version 10.2 and 10.3 version is available on the host. If I try to follow the upgrade procedure (jumper W2 bridged, of course) the controller sees a bit of business network, reboots, gets a little more traffic, and then MAX tells me that the update has failed.

I can see that the flash update program was transferred to the target and set as the boot executable, but clearly it was not entirely successful. Can anyone help with this? I upgraded to 512 MB CF card (which he has no problem using) and RAM 64 Mo - I didn't have an old 128 MB SODIMM autour. What is the problem? Starting with redirect series will help something? I have to build a null modem to make this work.

For anyone in a similar situation.

In the end, I decided to downgrade to LV2009 on my development machine and try things again. With the help of LV2009/LVRT2009/MAX4.6, I was able to upgrade the version of the BIOS on both of my controllers 8145RT - correctly we from 10.2 to 10.3 and 9.1 to 10.3. After that, I was able to install RT2009 + DaqMX + another need of the components on the controller for which I had updated size RAM and CF. There is not a lot of memory to spare, but the controller starts in LVRT(9.0/2009) and I have successfully deployed an application to test on this subject.

My application may require an upgrade to faster hardware in the end, but the 8145RT must stay a usable under LV2009 for simple tasks controller. I suspect that LVRT2010 would work, now that I got the BIOS upgrade, but I'm not inclined to test this right now.

As for the original question of the update of the BIOS fault, I'm pretty sure it is a bug in MAX 4.7.  4.6 MAX had no trouble to initiate an update to the exact same version as 4.7 was trying (10.3); I suspect that MAX 4.7 have not properly configured the CF environment to start the flash update program.

Hope this helps someone.

  • Satellite A500-1GL - cannot upgrade the BIOS

    Hello

    I tried to upgrade the BIOS on my Satellite A500-1GL (PSAR9E) for awhile now, but a dead battery so I can not go beyond the security check at the beginning. Is it all of the way around it, like I'm connected with current alternative, so I don't see what the problem is! Could I have possibly self-extracting zip files.

    Any help would be appreciated as this is very frustrating!

    Hello

    I think that you will not be able to update the BIOS, if your battery is dead.
    Victory based BIOS update can be updated from Windows system, and there is a security option that allow you to update the BIOS only if the laptop is connected to the power adapter and if the battery is charged.

    You can update the BIOS using a traditional BIOS version, but as far as I know that Toshiba service partner could do that.

    If you have two options:
    Purchase a battery in order to update the BIOS by using win according to BIOS version or you will get in touch with an ASP in your country and will ask you to update the BIOS by using the traditional version of BIOS.

    But the BIOS update is necessary to you?

    I have a laptop with the old BIOS version and I don't have that day even if the new version has been released.

  • Cannot upgrade the BIOS for my Satellite A300

    When I want to update my bios 2.70 victory, there is an error and the program said that it couldn't find the file bios.wph. So I can't update my BIOS.

    Thank you for your help.
    Vehbi Tirnakli M.D.

    What exact error message appears?
    And more importantly, have you unzipped BIOS files, after downloading? If not, do so and try again.

    Depends on the updated version of the BIOS on what operating system you are using. I assume that you installed Windows XP if you are using version 2.70. For Windows Vista, you must use version 1.30.

    Please check the good versions of BIOS.

    AZ_scuba_dude, welcome to the forum.

    There is no update software/BIOS for Win7 for the computer.  It is unlikely that there will be a developed.  However, there is a BIOS update for XP.  You will need to do a system restore to the original configuration that includes XP.  Once this operation is complete, you can update the BIOS to version: 3.19.  You can do the update using the executable file (sp35100.exe). Although she did not mention anything about what makes the upgrade of the processor.  Here are the Specifications of the motherboard of the computer.  In the processor upgrade information section, it lists the updates that supports HP.

  • Upgrade the BIOS laptop won't stop

    Hello

    I have a HP Pavilion Notebook 17

    Product number: E0J89UA #ABA

    64-bit Windows 8

    I got a message to upgrade the BIOS.   I did and now when I click close it acts like it is going and the screen goes black but the power light stays on with the light for the F12 airplane mode.  When I opened the laptop, the light is still on.  I can't click with the mouse or press the windows key to wake him up.    I held down the power button to stop it so I can start it up.  Starts fine with no problems.  Does not even say that windows is not shut down properly.

    I also had to do the upgrade several times with the BIOS.  It's the F.21AP1 Version when it's time to upgrade the first that he was supposed to restart and it does not.  When I went back to the HP Wizard, it appeared that I needed to update.  It no longer.

    Thank you!

    Because it is not turn it off, you can try to disable all items that load at startup, check if maybe a program running in the background is preventing it from closing properly. Follow the instructions here: prevent opening software programs when Windows starts (Windows 8)

    If this fails, you might be able to restore the BIOS using this method: restore the BIOS

    Let me know if it helps.

  • Upgrading the BIOS on a Tecra M10 but without MS Windows

    Hello!

    My Tecra M10 runs OpenSolaris. No windows on this machine. Question is how upgraded the BIOS on this subject? The only file that I found to download is a Windows executable file...
    Another way? Such as the creation of a CD or a USB drive?

    Thanks in advance,
    Gilles gravel

    And what files you want to save on a CD or USB stick?
    Long since Toshiba doesn't offer traditional BIOS update but only the Win version.
    What you can try is to contact nearest Toshiba authorized maintainer and ask for help.

    They have access to the database of Toshiba and I imagine that they can help you with the update of the BIOS.
    You can also exchange of HDD, recovery of installation image, make sure BIOS update and put old HDD with solaris back. Maybe some friend of you HARD drive and you can borrow for this purpose.

    Tecra M5 cannot enter the BIOS to change the setting too boot from cd first

    I bought on ebay and the seller sold me a dubious version of xp so I want to format and install my own at the start he said:

    The Intel Boot Agent GE v1.2.31 initialization
    KE - E05: the LAN adapter's configuration is corrupted or has not been initialized. Boot agent cannot continue

    Hello

    The message looks like you tried to boot and install Windows LAN

    If you want to change the boot order, I recommend pressing the F12 key, immediately after that the laptop was turned on!

    A new start menu should appear, then you can choose the reader of CD/DVD (ODD) and a boot device.

    Also by pressing the C button should allow you to boot from the CD inserted, bootable.

  • Tecra M3 - cannot update the BIOS

    Hello

    I have a Tecra M3 (PTM30E) and TEMPRO says they are 2 updates of bios for the computer.
    I downloaded, but when I run it I tells me that the computer is not supported. How to upgrade the BIOS?

    Best wishes

    Michael

    Why in the hell do you need a BIOS update?
    Only because the Tempro said that there is a new update?

    TEMPRO sends only a notification that a new file has been downloaded
    It s not a recommendation that you have so far!

    So if your laptop runs without problem don't update anything!

    I always took this advice; never change a running system! And it of really wise counsel

  • Cannot Flash the BIOS on A100 (PSAA8E) - flash process freezes

    Hey everybody.

    I am owner of a laptop Toshiba Satellite A100-283 (PSAA8E-1DL044GR)

    I intend to move the CPU (T1350) to a T2400 dual core.

    Before I open the laptop to install the new CPU, I want to assure you that the BIOS will support it-so, I want to upgrade the BIOS to the newest 6.00 version on the Toshiba support site.

    The flash BIOS (S10V600.exe) file is a self-extracting RAR starts automatically the good process of WinPhlash.

    Unfortunately, the last step in the WinPhlash process does not start.
    Instead, the system locks up completely with a CPU usage to 100% (spinning fan at full speed).

    The new BIOS only if written to the BIOS chip since I hard-restarting the laptop and normally boot my linux system. The BIOS is always the version 2.00.

    My questions:

    -Any of you who have already updated the BIOS on this system knew what could cause this?
    -What operating system did you use to Flash the BIOS?

    I was running Flash on a WinXP SP3 LiveCD (Hiren Boot CD) utility, the file loading flash BIOS from a USB storage device (I don't have Windows and would like to avoid to get a new SATA drive and install a 'real' windows there just to upgrade my BIOS, but I would if it could be the only way to get the BIOS flashed)

    Your help is greatly appreciated, thanks and greetings from Germany to the rest of Europe!

    > Before I open the laptop to install the new CPU, I want to assure you that the BIOS will support it-thus, I would like to upgrade the BIOS to the newest 6.00 version on the Toshiba support site

    First update the BIOS won't help you if the old BIOS would not support the new processor.
    In General, you can only use the CPU that is supported by the chipset.
    As much as I know, that the new processors are not added to new versions of BIOS
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

    > What OS did you use to Flash the BIOS?
    Since the available BIOS version is based on the Windows version, you must use the Windows which has been pre-installed by Toshiba.
    In many cases, the update of the BIOS requires VAP (value added package) which is necessary if you are running Vista or Win7.

  • Satellite A100-386 - how to upgrade the BIOS?

    Hello

    I wanted just to update my old Satellite A100-386 with 4 GB of RAM (2x2gb Crucial) instead of 1 GB, as I am now running Windows7 Pro 64 bit instead of the original XP 32.

    I read that I had to upgrade the BIOS as mine is v2.00. So, I downloaded the last of them.
    It seems to be an automatic upgrade of BIOS (S10V600.exe) as mentioned on the site Web of Toshiba.
    But when hit the .exe, I have a box of error message saying:
    "LOADPEDRV. "EXE: could not start the service.

    My question is: do I have to be 32-bit OS to run the upgrade of the automatic BIOS or is it possible to Flash the BIOS with a Windows7 64 bit OS run?

    Thanks a lot for all answer as I found no 'how to' in search on this forum.

    Best regards
    François

    Hi FPSim,

    Who said that you need to update the BIOS to upgrade RAM? The maximum RAM capacity depends on the motherboard and chipset and not BIOS.

    Official website of Toshiba, I have seen that the model supports 4 GB of RAM so the BIOS update is not necessary. Increase the RAM and everything is ok.

  • Upgrading the BIOS on Satellite A80?

    Hi all...

    Just got this dynabook TX or Satellite A80 and reformatted it in English of the Japanese text, my new OS is XP.

    The update of the BIOS?
    What is the use of the update?
    I have to update all of its utilities?

    Thanks in advance for your response...

    Hello

    First that you check if drivers Toshiba published on the page of the European reader supports the A80 series available to you.
    Drivers on the page are designed for the PSA80E series.

    If you changed the OS to the English version, I need specific XP drivers;

    > How to upgrade the BIOS?
    You must first check if the BIOS is compatible, you can update the BIOS operating system. You will need to run the BIOS file in the Windows operating system.

    > What is the use of update?
    This Bios update adds functionality to your system.

    > Can I update all its utilities?
    If you have need of all, you need to install all.
