• Combination of keys start crisis of victory for Satellite L850 - 1 k 0 - no boot after BIOS FLASH

  Hello!
  Someonw does know which key boot combination work for the L850 - 1 k 0?
  I flashed a modded bios that works first, then the settings changed for the graphics card, stop and here's the laptop with black screen (to the external monitor VGA or HDMI).

  Now I try to reflash original BIOS (6.8 InsydeH20) with wincrisis (which should boot from usb, which would be indicated by the led flashing on the usb port), but there are certain key combinations that is held over the power that differ: I tried with the ones I found Googling for similar models, Fn + Esc Fn + Esc, Windows + F, Windows + B, Fn + B - but nothing has worked, no activity to usb.

  If someone know the combination of work as this model L850 - 1 k 0?
  I have not found something looking for it online!

  Help would be very appreciated!

  Thank you!

  Hi TIMMTOMM,

  Were you able to start the original bios?
  My Toshiba l850-1w9 PSKDNE is the same as yours, (only difference drive HARD and OS), I did not start a bios from USB and I do not know the combinations for her but there is an article about how to start the bios modded on the net, but I don't think they will be posted here. Simply search for bios modded to the l850 and leave aside the 1 k 0.

  And just a quick guess you did install a modded bios to activate the video card integrated CPU, so you can use it to Miracast, or something like?

• T400 died after BIOS flash

  Windows (7 x 64), I tried to update the BIOS.

  He treated and after that it restarted to close unexpectedly.

  Now, after turning on the laptop it beeps twice and that's it.

  Nothing appears on the screen.

  Tried to download the bootable BIOS flash CD, but unable to start than at the Lair of the BIOS.

  I guarantee, but I think I have to send the machine in another country (im in Hungary) for weeks, I ask so as there may be a solution for this... but I 'google' for hours on the subject.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hi cbodis,

  I'm sorry to hear the BIOS update failed, but I think that your only option in this case is the service. I'm sure that there are no other choice to fix it on your own if the BIOS is damaged after a failed BIOS updated.

  Are you sure you want to send the computer to another country? I'm sure that the computer can be fixed in Hungary. They will probably replace just the motherboard. You can call the following number and ask about the warranty/service: 36-1-382-5500

  As for the future, I recommend that you update the BIOS by downloading the ISO image, burn the image and boot from the CD to update instead of Windows Update. I know this will not solve the problem, but I've heard more issued after only an update of Windows over the use of the ISO so maybe a good idea for the future.

• I get BSOD after Bios flash, can connect in safe mode.

  Hi all

  I use a laptop HP DV3145 DX, OS is win 7 Home Basic (it came with the laptop).

  A few days ago my screen started to behave erratically. The lower part of the screen is blurred and was unreadable. So I have updated Bios with the HP support assistant.

  After I flashed the bios, I could connect to windows, but every time I log on to the windows it crashed (BSOD) after 30 to 60 seconds.

  I could connect to the computer in safe mode

  That's what I did

  1. connected in safe mode and disabled all startup program (used Msconfig), with the exception of microsoft. This did not help.

  2 activated the player HP_tools disk management and I see the Bios, Bios_new file is there.

  Now, what should be my next step? I want to factory reset as my last option, I have a lot of settings, digital certificates, backups of phone in this machine, those who are important to my work.

  I think to Flash the Bios to the previous version to see if that helps. Now, I don't consider myself a very experienced user. So if anyone can tell me how to Flash the bios to the older version, I'll be grateful.

  I would also like to hear any other suggestions, others may have.

  * PS: I can't update windows drivers (I've updated about a month ago), because the 3 G dongle that I use is not having recognized in safe mode.

  Thanks in advance,

  Magassa

  You should not have flashed the BIOS. Updating the BIOS is not a magic solution to all the problems. You must perform as the first response to a problem with your laptop because it adds an element of risk.

  You should use the diagnoses instead. Press the power button and immediately press the ESC key. In the start menu, choose to press the F2 key to invoke diagnostics. Perform a system test, a test of memory, a hard drive test and a test video.  Let us know what are the results of the diagnostic test. The image is a more recent version that is installed on the hard drive of your laptop, but is still pretty similar.

  

• Vista does not start after BIOS flash

  I recently flashed my BIOS for my Presario SR5152NX by Vista after having downloaded the file directly following from the HP site:

  http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=PV-66758-1&LC=en&DLC=en&cc=us&product=3436821&OS=2093&lang=en

  He seemed fine, because he then asked me to restart my PC, I did.

  When it restarts, BIOS seems to be fine but once, he's trying to get into windows Vista, it will NOT start, and instead, I get a BSOD with the following STOP error message:

  STOP: 0X0000007B (0XF789E640, 0XC0000034, 0X00000000, 0X00000000)

  I tried searching for this error, but I do not get a clear answer to what it means.

  In addition, by choosing 'use last known Configuration' always produces the error, and I can't get in any security mode in the start menu.

  I can't enter in Vista, please help.

  I have solved my problem, but please keep this up for the other reference...

  It turns out that the error has to do with a "BOOT DEVICE" error. Once I read that I feared it might be a faulty drive. This was not the case.

  It seems that after the BIOS has been flashed, he changed the order of loading on my readers, and so it hurts than as a master. I guess expected Vista are on it and wrong. What I had to do was go in the motherboard configuration by pressing F10 on the diagnostic screen, and I had to spend my disk drive to configure the Vista disc as the main (has priority on the others), using the + and - keys on the numeric keypad.

  EUREKA, now charge well Vista again and the BIOS is updated correctly.

Ive tried all the buttons to go to "safe mode" but it does not work. can someone help me?

  Hey,.

  Can you start in safe mode when you press the F8 key?

  If you don t have a recovery disc and can access t the start menu Windows Advanced, you can try a normal Microsoft Windows disk to reinstall Windows.
  All the drivers and tools that you can download from the Toshiba page.

• Satellite L300 refuses to boot after BIOS update

  Hello

  L300 my girlfriend was terribly dragged so we decided to format C:. We did it with the XP restore disc that came with it.

  Then we had to update the drivers. We started the installation of upgrading the BIOS on Toshiba driver site, disappeared for a while and when we returned, the computer has restarted itself.

  He has been stuck in a cycle of the screen "loading windows" and one with a lower bar that says press F2 for this or F12 for this. Tried all the options in the start menu, not even safe mode works.

  We have tried to reformat with the previous method, by inserting the XP CD and by holding down the 'C' button when starting. We get the familiar "Windows Setup" screen, and it seems to load all the files from the CD windows installation. But when we come to the installation, we get a blue screen error message. "A problem has been detected and Windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer...". Technical information: * STOP: 0x0000007B (0xF78D254, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

  Nothing seems to work, please help! We really want to save the images on the disk D: partition.

  Hello

  Try to configure the BIOS to the default settings.
  You need to access the BIOS, and there you can set the default value.
  Please check if you can install the operating system by using the-> AHCI and compatible SATA mode.
  If you are using AHCI to include the SATA drivers. If you are using compatibility mode, then SATA drivers are not necessary.

  If you want to get access to the HARD disk before you install the operating system in the C partition, then I would recommend to start the laptop using a Windows Live CD WinPE and BartPe.
  Both are live CD what don t need an installation, you must boot from this drive only to access to content on the HARD drive.

• Satellite A135-S2356 won't boot after BIOS update

  I have Toshiba A135-S2356 and am having the same problem.
  Mine started to do after I was I had problems with only 2 of my usb ports work.

  I saw a topic on it and there was a link to update the system bios, http://laptopforums.toshiba.com/t5/General-Technology/My-Satellite-A135-S2356-is-having-USB-port-issues/m-p/17285, through this site.

  I clicked on the link and downloaded the update. Once I clicked on install the computer froze and I couldn't restart at all. The only way was for me to take the battery. Once I have the battery in I tried to return to power and that's when this current question has started to happen.

  If the update of bios fried my hard drive?

  When the BIOS update is interrupted for some reason any of the BIOS chip will be damaged and result starting laptop doesn t at all.
  I'm afraid of nothing that you can do everything alone. :(
  Please contact the nearest authorized maintainer and ask for help.

While this story is one warning to others: the bios upgrades are shit!

  Andy
  (I write from my Ibook now)

  Hi Andy,.

  I sympathize with your problem, the BIOS updates are extremely risky procedures and I normally only suggest to them when there is a known problem that will correct the BIOS update.

  We hope that your ASP will flash your BIOS with a working BIOS chip since it will be much cheaper than the alternative of replacing the motherboard.

  You will see many messages recommending that a BIOS update should be performed in order to correct all sorts of problems, but in reality a BIOS update should be made only as a last resort.

  I hope that things work out well for you.

  Kind regards

• T500 takes 15 minutes to boot after bios update

  symptoms:
  It takes about 10 or so minutes to reach the thinkpad press f1 to set up the screen, after that it gives me a screen that tells ME is initializing, it is after an update of the bios and later roll back bios. two updates to the bios give me the same result. functions of sleep also seems to not work, once im in my t500 windows works normally.

  what I did:
  In addition to rolling back the drivers Ive unplugged / replugged the cmos battery and off AMT. Ive also ensured that all my drivers are up to date.

  machine is a performer of 2081-cto on win7

  someone has an idea of what I can do? I still have a warranty but I would like to fix myself so I don't have the time.

• Cannot boot after BIOS update

  Hi, I recently bought a laptop Inspiron 5000 series, and because the touchpad control was just horrible I did a check for updates and upgrades. The update includes an update of the BIOS I plugged the laptop and ran the update. When it restarts, it failed. All I see is a boot failure:

  The family Realtek PCIe controller error. Media Test failure UNDI. No found boot device.

  I couldn't do a safe boot, but when I tried to get around the boot legacy and UEFI boot it will start.

  I am quite unhappy that a BIOS update (version 1.1.9 was the old version and 1.2.2 was new) caused this. The laptop is only 4 weeks old if I want to get this resolved.

  What should I do?

  You need not Mech system program.  This is what DellCares told me to do it on Twitter:

  Turn on the machine, key to tap F2 on startup Dell logo, it takes you to the BIOS screen. Go to the "Startup" tab, select "start list Options", change the option to "Legacy" to "UEFI".  Restart the machine, it should load correctly in Windows.

  -----

  I must point out that many others on twitter had already told me to try the same thing.  A person has explained why this has happened.  He said upgrading the BIOS changed the start to the legacy option when we UEFI.  Enter the BIOS and change this back solved the problem, so he's probably right.

• Notebook G71 won to boot after BIOS update on HP site

  I just updated the BIOS on my notebook G71... I downloaded the update from the HP site and it has been updated V20 to V23.

  After the update, the system became an automatic restart and now it does not move before the initial startup screen that shows HP and "ESC to return to the Start Menu" logo at the bottom. I tried the ESC key, but nothing past then is except that it says "esc... pause start." Nothing anyway. Now I can't reboot my system and it is dead. Help, please. Steve

  Unplug the power cord, remove the battery, hold the power button for a total of 30 seconds, connect AC only, see if it will load windows now.
