• Portege R600 - cannot update the BIOS using Win server 2008

  Hi all.

  Pls help...

  I tried to update my bios to the new version, but I can't.

  I just downloaded bios update of the toshiba site for portage r600 for my model number (bios update 1.80 - winner), I unzip the zip, run the exe, but error popup came:

  Package for the TOSHIBA BIOS ver.3.2.9
  Unsupported product type is installed.
  Package BIOS BIOS Version: Ver.1.80
  Current BIOS version: Ver.1.40

  So my question is what am I doing wrong? I'm trying to update my bios from windows.

  is my version of windows: windows server 2008 Enterprise Edition x 64 SP1 (don't ask why, I just have to run Server 2008)

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Your OS windows seems not to be the Windows which was preinstalled on your Portege
  You cannot update the BIOS by using the windows server 2008 Enterprise Edition x 64

  You will need to put the system which has been pre-installed by Toshiba

  Good bye

  BIOS and THIS should be updated

  During BIOS update seems following message:

  + An error occurred during the preparation of the updated environment. You have not given permission to run the update. +

  My settings:
  -BitLocker is turned off.
  -No connection to a docking station
  -Windows 7 is installed

  "Close all open programs, shut down windows and then turns off your computer."

  Any idea what is the problem?

  Hi ML

  Stupid question maybe now but why do you want to update the BIOS on this, I think, fairly new laptop model?
  Have you noticed a few issues or hardware issues?

• Tecra M3 PTM30E - cannot update the BIOS

  Hello

  I can't install my new Bios on the Tecra M3 PTM30E-09X01LEN system.
  The message says: not supported.

  Why?

  I put t he understand.

  Hello

  First of all, I want to ask you why you want to update the BIOS?
  You have some problems with the laptop that could be solved by the BIOS updated?

  Also what BIOS you use and where did you find and download?

  The Tecra M3 PTM30E seems to be a European model and the BIOS must be placed on the European driver Toshiba page.

  I checked the page and there are two versions of the BIOS;
  BIOS 1.20 - WIN-FBCF is only for the models with filter virtual control of Angle (FBCF)
  The BIOS 1.50 - WIN is for models WITHOUT filter the virtual control of Angle (FBCF)

  Seems that you used the wrong BIOS!

• Qosmio G30 PQG31E - no driver XP 32? Cannot update the BIOS?

  As usual, obtained a computer laptop, but no recovery CD :(

  Got 32 installed XP (my Microsoft contract does not MCE) but a lot of missing drivers. Driver Toshiba page has all the drivers for XP MCE, XP 32 has only BIOS update, Bluetooth, HD - DVD firmwares, the virtual sound and drivers WI - FI!

  So I tought "Vista on this issue", but I checked the compatibility XP with Vista DVD I got a 'need to update the BIOS' (always a 1.40-2006/03/10)!
  My problem is that BIOS update always returns "this computer is not supported! Laptop has only one account, this isn't permissions problem, perhaps because many drivers are not present? Can I update the BIOS in safe mode?

  What now? Am stuck with a brick of Qosmio? Without controllers LAN to say the least, I can't not fact! Drivers XP MCE does work on XP 32?

  Any thoughts?

  Hello

  I found all the Win XP drivers for Qosmio G30 PQG31E!
  On the European driver Toshiba page, you can find the Win XP MCE drivers
  XP MCE drivers are the same drivers for Win XP Home or Pro.

  There are also some BIOS 3, 90-WIN and this BIOS is operating system independent. In other words, it works with Win XP and Vista...

  To update the BIOS the common Module must be installed
  You can find also on the European driver Toshiba page!

• T420 BIOS 1.34 cannot update the BIOS

  Hello

  I am running UEFI BIOS 1.34 (ECP 1.11). Lenovo is delivered 1.37. I burned a CD with 1.37 to update my BIOS, but the utility tells me that an update is useless. I want to update the BIOS, because I have problems during startup when I connected USB devices.

  Anyone know a good solution?

  Thank you.

  I would like to download the BIOS and burn another CD and try again.

• E6510 - cannot update the BIOS

  I need to update my Latitude E6510 BIOS patch A01.1 new. When I run the updater it starts, restart the portable computer but nothing happens. The BIOS is always on A01.  I can't launch the BIOS A02. Why does this work? Y at - it a way for the patch to work.

  NOTE: I'm sure this is the right file. My service tag to select downloads.

  BIOS A03 fixes this issue. Can now update the BIOS in Windows 7 64 bit.

• Portege A100 PPA10A - update the BIOS to boot from a USB device

  Hello

  I have an old Portege A100, model: PPA10A-0002LP, but I can't seem to find this model on any Web site of Toshiba, closest I've seen is the "PPA10A - 0002 L'.

  I am wanting to know if there is a BIOS update that will allow me to boot from a USB device.

  The question I have is that I need to reinstall Windows, but the CD ROm cannot read disks.
  This network PXE boot, but I'm new to this sort of thing and have absolutely no idea what to do here.

  Any help would be great,

  Thank you

  Hello

  Portege A100 seems to be developed solely for the Australian market.
  As you say it is a model number Portege A100 PPA10A - 0002L listed on the Australian page of Toshiba Portege A100 PPA10A-0002LP belongs to the same series which is PPA10A
  So in my opinion, the BIOS should work too.

  Anyway, I doubt that the BIOS update will add boot options.

  Usually the BIOS supports booting from CD/DVD drive, drive HARD, LAN and USB FDD.
  It should be possible to boot from a boot disk using a USB FDD drive.
  I doubt you'd be able to boot from USB WEIRD since this Portege A100 supports an internal CD/DVD drive.

• Can Vista on Portege A100 - I update the BIOS?

  Had a go at this facility, and everything is well outside the installation of value-added package - the main thing I want to make it work is the function for the brightness of the screen keys and connect a TV.

  I understand that the upgrade of the BIOS can contribute to obtaining of the installed VAP (I'm getting an ID ERR NOTINSTALLTVALZ), I know that Toshiba will not directly support the A100 for Vista, but is there a BIOS I can install that works? I think there could be a similar machine that works in Vista or maybe just a BIOS A100 that will suffice?

  Thank you very much!

  Hello

  May I ask where did you get the Vista Package value added for Portege A100?
  I didn t find this value-added package on Toshiba Europe site.

  There are only 3 files for Vista. One of the files is BIOS v1.60 - WIN, which seems to be independent of the operating system.

  With regard to the BIOS;
  You should know that the update of the BIOS is always risky.
  If you use the wrong version of BIOS or bad BIOS update procedure can damage the motherboard!
  and as you probably know the motherboard is one of the expensive laptop parts!
  It s not worth it to try something that can damage the laptop. You know

• HP Pavilion Elite HPE-270e cannot update the bios

  HP Pavilion Elite HPE-270e desktop PC

  Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

  I have a problem running the sp49903.exe that contains the last update of the bios for my pc. My antivirus is disabled, no other programs are running, I am logged in as administrator and also tried to run as administrator, but that I always meet the same problem. It runs and I click Next and then I agree with the terms of the license agreement and then click Next and then I get an error message: (the contents of this file cannot be unpacked. The executable file that you are trying to run has been damaged. If please get another copy of the file, verify its integrity and try again.)

  My latest version of bios is 5.28 and I'm trying to update to 5.29.

  Software downloads & Driver - HP Pavilion Elite HPE-270e desktop PC

  you try to download a new copy of it?

  I did and it worked.

  try to download and try to install on another PC and see if the error is the same. It will not install on another PC, it checks to see what the BIOS is the first. But the error you report no has nothing to do with the BIOS, it tells me the downloaded file is corrupt and since I just tried to download and install and it worked, it tells me the file on the server is good.

  Good luck

• Portege R700: Cannot use the two SVGA HDMI on the Port PA3838E-1PRP Port Replicator

  Dear all,

  I have a Portege R700 series (PT311E) and a high speed P/N PA3838E-1PRP port replicator.

  Today, I tried to connect two external monitors on the VGA port and the second HDMI port replicator port.
  Unfortunately, I was not able to configure the laptop / duplicator to * work with external monitors stand *.

  Do not work in this way portable stand and port replicator becomes useless.
  Although it is a default installation on other products manufactured without drivers and special parameters will be needed, I hope that in our case a key combination or a driver may resolve this problem.

  To be even more precise, I don't want to also use the laptop screen. I want to just connect laptop closed and turned off in the duplicator, to turn on the laptop the power button of the port replicator and to have the image on two external monitors.

  Thank you for your quick responses,

  Best regards

  Cristian

  Hello

  What R700-xxx you have exactly?

  How to connect two monitors? Are the two monitors connected only to the Port Replicator or is one of the monitor connected to the laptop and the other monitor is connected to the duplicator?

  Could you please post this?

  I'm not quite sure of HDMI and Port Replicator (PA3838E-1PRP) but many laptops equipped with support DVI dual video output (VGA and DVI) port using Advanced Port Replicator III (PA3314E-1PRP) or Advanced Port Replicator III more (PA3474E-1PRP).
  But this is only possible if the laptop itself supports the simultaneous use of RGB & DVI too.

• 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

• Satellite A500 - cannot update the BIOS (error message)

  Hello

  I have a PSAR3A - 02U002 Satellite A500 with BIOS version 1.9 is installed.

  After reading several forums, I discovered that there may be a BIOS (v2.0) update available to resolve the current problem, these Satellites have with overheating cooling switch down.

  Excited, I have tried to install the new BIOS - this is what I get:

  "There is an error occurred, please check below the elements."
  BIOS version more than 200.
  Battery capacity more than 10%.
  AC is fixed. »

  First of all, my BIOS version is 190, no more than 200. Second, I find it very difficult to believe that the battery must be less than 10%. And third, I don't see what that remove the power supply cable will do.

  Please note that this update of the BIOS found on Toshiba's European website, but v2.0 claims to be a worldwide release. I then checked on the Australian site and there is no BIOS for my model. I don't know how to interpret this contradiction.

  Help, please!

  Hi umm_excuse_me,

  So I think that BIOS update is not available at this time for you. European and Australian models have different model numbers, so I doubt that the update of the BIOS is always the same. The pieces of equipment may also be different.

  In your case, I would wait until the BIOS was released on the page Australian too.

  By the way: where did you read that this update was release in the world?
