Once BIOS updated by Satellite Pro U400-15N no longer works

Hi all

I got my BIOS update from toshiba Web site, when I used it to update my laptop, it crashed and now my computer doesn't work anymore, I tried authorized service provided, but they couldn't remedy! and said: I need to change my motherboard which is almost more expensive than my laptop itself, I'm sure you understand now that I have more warranty

What I need your support on is the following:

Can someone provide me with. ROM BIOS files for this model?

If this isn't the case, someone has any information of how fix?

If this is not available nor can someone provide me the model of this particular motherboard so I can order a new one?

Thanks in advance

  • During BIOS update by Satellite Pro A60 went down and did not start

    Hi all

    I have a Satellite Pro A60 and I've updated the bios. To halfway the update, my laptop came down and started Hasna´t since. It only give a couple of beeps (trying to tell me the bios is damaged, I guess) and turns off again.

    Tried to start with (~) key pressed (a tip I received from a friend), but without success.

    I live in a country where there is no available Toshiba dealer and I rather not ship the laptop for repair.

    Does anyone know how to fix this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    This doesn't sound good.
    If during the POST, the BIOS detects a problem, it will normally display an error message visual on the monitor explaining what the problem is. However, if a problem is detected before it initializes BIOS video card or a video card is not present or not detected then BIOS will play through the Speaker beeps to let you know there is a problem.
    Depending on the type of BIOS you have the BIOS can play beeps in a specific pattern to indicate what the problem is, or emits the signal even a few times indicating the problem.

    In your case, it is possible to s you used a bad BIOS or bad BIOS procedure. Both can damage the motherboard.
    To avoid such damage and mistakes, Toshiba published FAQ document.
    How to upgrade the BIOS on most of the units!

    That you should read before making updates to the BIOS!
    Unfortunately, I n t think that you can fix yourself. I think you should ask to help ASP.

  • Satellite Pro S300 - USB no longer works

    Hello
    I have a 6 month laptop Satellite Pro S300-100 and running Vista 32 bit. He got 4 USB slots, 1 handset that works on the left side and 3 USB2 connectors right side and these 3 suddenly stopped working. I tried different connections, memory stick, external drive, USB mouse, but they are all dead.

    I've tried deactivited and operated them, no change. I checked the ports and the response of the system are that they are involved.

    I had a similar problem earlier on a Tecra 9000 a few years ago and the replaced the motherboard.

    Anyone has a solution, please?

    Hello!

    Do you have the yellow marks in Device Manager?

    I think that there is a hardware problem. Contact an ASP (authorized service provider) to repair your laptop.

  • Satellite Pro U400 - 150 - display has stopped working

    Hello guys,.

    yesterday I used to turn on my laptop (Satellite Pro U400 - 14) and it worked fine but after 1 minute my screen stopped working. I tried to restart the PC, and it worked OK again. But I turn on my laptop today and it didn t work at all. Everything is OK, PC works fine, everything is good, but only the display is black.

    I Don t know what happened with my laptop. :/

    Is there anyone who knows the answer to this problem?

    Thanks for all your answers.

    > Everything is OK, PC works fine, everything is good, but only the display is black.
    Of course, this isn't all right if nothing appears on the screen

    Connect an external monitor to check if you would be able to see something on the screen?
    Do this! Usually you should use the FN + F5 to alternate between the monitor internal and external.
    If this is not possible and nothing could be seen on the 2nd monitor, the graphics card problem can cause this.

  • Satellite Pro U400-13D stops several times

    Hello world

    I only use the Satellite Pro U400-13D for office work. In the last days the laptop turns off without warning during normal operation.
    After a reboot, the problem recurs after a random time.

    This is known issue? What can I do about it?

    Thank you

    Alexander Lorenz

    Hello Alexander

    In General, this can happen on each laptop model and can be caused by different reasons. It can happen due to overheating or maybe some malfunction of the equipment.
    On this path, it is certainly not easy to offer accurate diagnosis or explanation why this happen.

    Have you noticed unusual behavior in front of your laptop turns off?
    Is it when some software is running?
    Portable temperature (surface where your hands are placed) is higher than usual?

  • The update of the BIOS on Satellite Pro U400?

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro U400 (PSU41E) running Windows 7 x 64 and I try to update the BIOS to version 4.70 to 4.00.

    Whenever I try to do it from Windows using WinPhlash which comes with the download on the Toshiba site it seems to freeze when you try to Flash the new BIOS.
    I connected as the local administrator, tried to use other programs flash and even tried to do from a USB flash drive with no luck.

    Can someone please help me and explain how do I update the BIOS?

    Hello

    > tried to use other flash programs
    Never use other flash programs! In the worst case, you could damage the ROM module and then it must be replaced. Use only the program flash Toshiba that is tested and designed for laptop and the version of the BIOS.

    The update of the BIOS program is also designed for Windows, it s a Windows Update program.

    Satellite Pro U400 wasn t comes with Windows 7 so I guess you did your own installation. Value added package is required for the update of the BIOS program and can be downloaded on the European driver of Toshiba download page where is your laptop model:

  • Satellite Pro U400 - BIOS update gone bad

    Hi all!

    I've updated the BIOS on my laptop and something was wrong, just not now a computer screen.

    I went to see the Web for Chris Bios recover.
    Have over 20 versions, but so far without success.

    My biggest problem is: I can't save on floppy disk 2 MB BIOS. All attempts to create a
    Flash or SD ended in failure.

    The laptop is: Satellite pro U400 PSU45E

    Please help me... the laptop reads the floppy in BIOS with little experience (the ones that come with Chris Bios 500Ko - 1000 KB) begins with a normal boot beep signals supposedly provided a definition blocks then baar times short beep and nothing to do...
    There must be something... BIOS BACK small size, emulator USB... BIOS to be torn down, so it is possible in charge from USB, SD...

    Every idea can be useful!

    Thank you very much

    Excuse my English

    f the subject isn't here, please redirect mderatora
    This is my 1 post here

    Hi mate

    Unfortunately if something was wrong during the update of the BIOS, then you won't be able to solve this problem without the help of a technician of the ASP

    I hope that the ROM BIOS module is not too bad
    In the worst case that the mobo is damage but maybe it s not damaged

    However. You must contact a local ASP and must ask for the manipulation of the Fryer!

    Good luck!

    Basically, the other day I noticed the keys 3 and 5 were not work next to the f3 key (meaning I now have to go into the settings of brightness, whenever I want to increase it). I thought "I'll just reboot and see if that fixes anything" and he did... temporarily. I have to restart every time that I've lost the ability to use these keys, but now it does nothing.

    > I asked this question on the Microsoft forums and I've learned to run the troubleshooter of material (did not help) and if defective, to search for the latest drivers for keyboard - I seem to have the most recent for my model, as from Toshiba Web site does not list the keyboard updates.

    It seems that this opinion is not from Microsoft staff, but some users of the forum.
    You should know that the drivers of keyboard (developed by Microsoft) are still part of the Windows System. Any Windows OS you use, the keyboard driver would be always installed as part of the OS. This means that the drivers of special keyboard DON T exist but system uses own driver...

    You can check the functionality of the keyboard in USB external keyboard.
    If external keyboard works properly, the internal keyboard is malfunctioning and must be replaced.

    If the external keyboard does not work properly too, then I recommend you to recover the laptop using Toshiba HDD recovery. Otherwise, there could be question of motherboard (keyboard controller).

  • Re: Satellite Pro U400-160 - freezes when copying larger files or videos

    Hello:

    I have a Satellite Pro U400-160 and a VERBATIM external hard drive USB eSATA combo.

    If I turn on AHCI mode recognizes the drive, but when copying the video files or large file size, the system is frozen. However if I remove the mode AHCI works correctly. I have the version 9.8.9.1023 Intel (r) Matrix Storage Manager and my laptop BIOS v4.0 and Windows Vista Business.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Normally the AHCI mode has nothing to do with an external HARD drive. It is only important for the internal HARD disk if you install Windows.

    Anyway, you have installed all the updates of Windows for Vista?
    In addition, you should test another external HARD disk or with another cable.

  • Satellite Pro U400 - cannot install VAP on Vista 64-bit

    Hello
    Since I bought 4GB of RAM for my Satellite Pro U400 PSU45E, I installed vista Business 64-bit, with all drivers and bios 64 bit found on the toshiba site.
    easy, with the exception of the "value added package 1.1.19", whenever I try to install I get: error "failure of GetProfString."

    I installed every driver and utility for 64-bit, but still the same...
    Everyone has experienced with this?

    Without VAP, I can't use the Toshiba power saver, worst profiles I can't go back because I did a new install and deleted the recovery partition!
    Please, someone help!

    Hello

    VAP contains all the modules necessary and you n t need to install other tools in order to install VAP
    I think that it s a Vista may issue you should do a clean install, then you must update the Vista for the last State.
    After have installed all the patches Vista, try to install VAP and other tools.
