Portege M400 - where to find the Bios 3.80 changelog
Hello
is there a place where I can find the changelog of the version of the bios 1.80 to 3.80? should I upgrade?
-do you have any experience by changing the fan? mine makes sounds that belong not here...
-How long in your experience can take to get a response from toshiba support by e-mail? IM waiting 3 days now... :(
Thank you
Hello!
I can t find a log of the changes on the Toshiba site also but why do you want to upgrade the BIOS? In my opinion a BIOS update should only be done if you have problems with your laptop or something else.
Never touch a running system! ;)
Before you exchange the fan you need to clean using a jet of compressed air. This could blow the dust from the cooling fans, and you should do from time to time.
Good bye

Where to find the Bios for Satellite M100-221 unofficial
Where can I find the bios unofficial for M100-221? My bios has too few parameters.
Unofficial BIOS?
What do you mean with unofficial BIOS? All downloadable versions of BIOS are official versions of BIOS!Do you know that the update of the BIOS is a bit risky! Isn't it?
The incorrect BIOS may cause damage to the motherboard so you want to use a non-official BIOS on you laptop?I don t think so

Portege R400 - where to find the old BIOS?
Hi all
I inherited a R400 Prototype of one of our guys to laboratory here at the office and made the mistake of flashing the BIOS to 1.5 of Windows.
Now, I get a black screen and a power indicator light flashes.
The old BIOS was 0.6 and I can't seem to find one or even a version prior to 1.5 on the web.Anyone happen to have a pointer to the older versions? Maybe on an FTP server, so I can try to flash?
Thank you
Mike
Hello
Official website of Toshiba, you can download the latest version of the BIOS. In addition it of not possible to downgrade the BIOS.
In any case, to downgrade the BIOS, you must contact an ASP. They can downgrade the BIOS with an earlier version if you wish.
On the Toshiba site, you can search with ASP:

Portege 3440: Where to find the recovery disk and drivers
First of all Hello to all,
This is my first post and I'm afraid, it is a bit of an oldey.
I came in possetion of a Portege 3440 netbook with cd players and external floppy drive.
The problem is that the cd player works via the NIC port (I think it's pcmia?)
I'm a surfer of money so not sure.Anyone know where I can get the drive system for this machine and how to install the drivers etc.
I am hoping to get to the top and running with win2k but will come back on if communal win98se.Sorry this is so long, but hope you can help me.
My deep gratitude in advance to all.
Hi mate
It's very old portable machine and I'm afraid that you would not be able to order the recovery for this laptop m disk.
You will need to install the Windows operating system using a disc of Microsoft.On the European driver Toshiba page, you will be able to find the drivers and software for this laptop.
You must choose Archive product Type, because the old drivers are placed in the archives.You will find USB - FDD driver. When you connect the USB floppy drive to the laptop it is ask for a TEAC (mainly in Europe) driver or a driver of YE-data (mainly Asian). Please check which of the drivers you need by connecting the laptop floppy drive to download the driver.
You will also find companion diskette. The accompanying disk contains programs to configure computers Toshiba installation information and to test the equipment. It also contains files and utilities that allow you to get the most out of your Toshiba computer.

Portege M400: Could not update the BIOS after installing Vista
Hello
I have improved my M400 for Vista.
I am trying to install all drivers Vista of Tosh. According to the instructions, the first thing to do is to update the bios.
So, I download the bios (v3.60) on the site and run the .exe, but he tells me that I need the common modules.
The only common modules that I can find on the Tosh site are for XP.
Can anyone help?
Thank you
Steve
You will probably need to update the BIOS before installing Vista on the laptop.
Then, you could install Vista again. -
Satellite P100: Where to find the BIOS 2.4 to get rid of overheating
Hi all
Well well, it is for anyone who has had problems of overheating on the p100 or other such fan disturbances in vista or xp.
Here is my story:
I bought a new p100 on seven 6th with Vista preinstalled and I found that I couldn't play because A) there was the problem of "stutter" B) my system overheats protection to stop the automatic to do.So I spent a week of research forums and the bowls of the internet trying to find solutions for that.
The first most liley solution I found was to downgrade to XP, so I did... and that fixed the problems of stuttering during playback of dvd and while palying games!However I have had overheating issues (I could only play games like oblivion for 10 minutes then boom).
The temperature of my system has been peeking at as 75 to 85 degrees, obviously this is not good. So I phoned a support technique toshiba and they told me to take it in an ASP and the look.Well, it's a problem for me, because the nearest EPA is 4 hours away by rocket lol jk but it is plan Z.
So I looked more deeply into the darkest recesses of internet forums...AND I THINK I FOUND THE ANSWER!
However, this requires downgradeing to the BIOS version2.40 who, after a week of research, I have been unable to find! :(
So my question... my please. Can someone tell me where I can find this particular version of the Bios?
If you have had similar problems, like that I can post a link to the forum (I've not worn to hand at the moment but I can get it if anyone wants) which I think has the answers but you should have a pretty good understanding of computer systems to try these fixes. I weeded ut who changes the ACPI settings does not work (for my system anyway)
Any help in locating BIOS v2.4 will be greatly appreciated
I wish you much luck, but I'm a little pessimistic about finding the old version of the BIOS. Please check this forum a bit better by using the advanced search option. I'm not 100% sure but I think I read the similar topic some time ago. Maybe you can find the user who wrote this version of BIOS. Check her profile here and write on his e-mail address, if any.

Portege M400: Where to find Windows Vista 64-bit
Hello!
I've owned a Portege M400 for a period of 3-4 months now, and I wonder if there is even one person out there who managed to get this laptop computer working under vista 64-bit.
I finally got bluetooth drivers to work, after the arrival of drivers available. But the following list does not work or I have not found drivers that work.
-The buttons below the LCD
-Accelometer (and all the utilities like screen rotation or to do something about tilting machine)
HARD disk utility - protection (I installed Vista drivers, but they totally destroyed the machine and I had to restore system did not start after the installation of windows)
-Fingerprint readerAnd I could live if I couldn't get buttons and accelometer to work, but still it would be great that the computer laptop everything would work.
I'm starting to lose hope and I am already planning to install pirate Vista 32 bit in this laptop... Because it seems that it was a mistake to buy 64-bit ultimate. Some drivers Toshibas indicates they are pilots 'vista', but they do not yet work with the 64-bit version, which has little frustrating...
In any case if someone could help me I would appreciate it a lot! Because I'm getting slowly frustrated with this problem with vista 64-bit.
Thanks in advance
I really understand you, but there is nothing to see! Toshiba Vista 64-bit drivers are not available on the Toshiba page. Nothing!
Of course, you can use a Vista 64 bit on laptops, but you will get not all 64-bit drivers. Maybe more later but not at this time!
So either you will switch back to Vista 32 bit or you need to use this notebook without 64-bit drivers. But this is not recommended
Greetings

Portege M400 unable to find the new 320 GB HARD drive
Hello
I'm moving my 80 GB HARD drive to a new WD 320 and research questions. Although I've updated the Bios with the latest version of the disk hard is not down to any operating system when it is in the main HARD drive Bay. The weird thing is completely visible in the removable Bay. Is this a configuration issue, I am missing or is the machine not reconise the 320 GB drive because that is the essential motivation?
Any help or pointers would be great
Thank you
Hey Buddy
In my opinion, your new HARD drive cannot be recognized because of the size of the HARD drive.
The 320 are simply too. I think that the laptop would be able to use a 100 GB or 120 GB of HARD drive but the 320GB are not supported.So change your disk of 320 GB to a smaller size and try again.
Good luck

MaxHi maxresti,
Normally you can download the latest version of the BIOS. This means that you won't find any older versions on the Toshiba site.
To get the old version, you should contact a service provider authorized in your country. Guys can reflash the old version in a few minutes.
On the Toshiba site, you will find a list of them where they are.Good luck! :)
