  Following message appears first

  BIOS and THIS should be updated

  During BIOS update seems following message:

  My settings:
  -BitLocker is turned off.
  -No connection to a docking station
  -Windows 7 is installed
  -Boot mode is enabled? I guess that means:
  "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?

• Portege R830-very loud fan that runs until the machine hangs.

  My 3 month old R830 fan runs often and hard... and on a daily basis will remain running loudly until finally the machine hangs. .. What is very, very frustrating.

  Someone told me he had something to with the security of fingerprint software... go figure!... but anyway I'm eager to find someone who has a solution.

  As it is I think the machine is way over rated, because it is only an improvement of the SSD on the orginal R600, which, when it came out was the best in its class. A portable "high-end" disappointing from my point of view... and the so-called 'new' Z series looks a lot like the R600 with a SAME size SSD... so as it seems that I am stuck with this one, I'll try to find a fix for a very annoying problem.

  Hi mate

  Please check the settings in the Windows 7 power management!
  There you can optimize the CPU and cooling performance module this should help reduce heat dissipation and fan speed
  .
  In addition I recommend upgrading the Toshiba Fingerprint Software immediately to the version V1.0.2.32 or higher. In addition, turn off the power save option of fingerprint device in Device Manager.
  Device Manager->-> authentic Tec Inc AES1610-> the power management of biometric devices

  Here, you will have to remove the mark next to the option called allow the computer to turn off this device to save power. Disable the power saving mode will reduce the life of the battery, so you can check whether or not it helps reduce noise.

• Portege R500 - freezes and does not

  Hello!

  a few minutes ago my laptop fixed, that he was not answering anything, even a movement of the mouse and I could hear the sound strange from the lower left as something began to turn and then suddenly stopping with the 'yyyyk' sound and the CD/DVD drive is located on the right side so it was that for sure , but the sound was somewhat similar.

  After a minute or so of spinning and stop the screen went black, then he turned blue with a text very quickly so that I could read only that Windows found a problem the laptop rebooted and then flashed blue screen again, after that, it went black and I could choose only to repair using the Windows cd (but I left it at home so I could not) or start Windows normally, so I started it normally, and it seems to be great so far.

  The strange sound of spinning, I heard only once before but the laptop was just a bit slow but do not freeze or restart has occurred and it happened months ago so I thought it's nothing serious. The laptop is 6 months old, warranty, with the original software and I treat it gently (never fallen etc.). Nearest authorized is way far from my place and I can't be left without the computer right now (review session).

  What can I do to check the laptop by myself (I don't want to take it apart, I'm a girl)? Maybe some software that I could run and it will report errors? Any ideas what was that noise? The first thing I though about was the hard drive so I already started to save my valuable data...

  Thx for any help/ideas :)

  Such sound could be developed by the different parties.
  Usually it's not easy to say exactly what's wrong.
  In most cases we can only assume (as the pyoc1_1 of the user), but these are own personal suggestions.

  The strange sound could be developed in HDD or cooling module.
  As Luke proposed, the HARD drive can be tested using the Drive Fitness Test software but the cooling modules can be tested in only by a Toshiba ASP.

  I understand that the nearest ASP is very far, but I think you should always communicate with guys in order to get more details how to handle this problem. I mean the laptop is under warranty, so everything should be done for free.

  I highly recommend containing the ASP in your country.

• Portege R100 freezes - CPU fan is defective?

  I ' v was Portege R100s for a long time, maybe 7 years old, I am at my last one.

  I'll be back from it after eating and the XP screen froze, no mouse movement, CntrlAltDel did nothing. Press and hold the power button it stopped.

  Now I can start, but it freezes again in a very short time, a few minutes. I'm guessing that the processor fan is stopped.
  Not tht sounds good to people, it's a realistic possibility to cannibalize the carcass of my previous and hang the fan of my current group?

  Thank you

  Of course, it could be linked to the question of the CPU.
  If the CPU wouldn't be cooled correctly then the system can stop to answer.

  Are you sure that the fan has stopped working?
  If yes then the cooling module must be checked and replaced by the compatible.
  You may not use the cooling modules. It should be compatible.

  But to be honest, I think that the RAM modules need to be checked also
  In most cases, a RAM problem is more realistic as a defective cooling module

  My old laptop has stopped working because one of the RAM slot is faulty
  I delete a module and the laptop worked using a single module of RAM
  However, I couldn't use it as I wanted and I bought the new notebook.

• Temperature above 94 and fans of vives with open Adobe applications

  Hello

  Last week my fans were broadcast loudly when I HAVE PS or open. I even don't need to do anything complex, that the computer is running hot in the minute of the opening of the app. I downloaded TG Pro to check the temperature and my computer works less than 80 degrees without open the app and jumps to 97 94 or even with an open. I tried to turn CC synchronization settings. I tried to close all background apps (Dropbox, TG Pro, Dr.Cleaner). I tried to close other applications such as Mail, Safari, Suitcase Fusion, etc.. None of them seem to solve the problem.

  The only time in the past that the computer and the fans ran this hot when I was rendered video in Premiere Pro.

  Any suggestions?

  Hello

  Please see High CPU or power use when Adobe Creative Cloud is idle on Mac OS 10.11

  Hope that helps!

  I have a speed HI PA3916A-1PRP port replicator for my R830.
  Whenever I start the laptop in the port replicator, the display settings for the screen of the laptop and external monitor goes back to some default that I didn't have before.

  Rang of Toshiba, and they said there is no update for the Replicator port, but suggested, updating the BIOS on the laptop, but that was already the most recent.

• Portege R830 - need to value added for Win8 64 bit package

  Hello

  I have a Portege R830-1 and I am very disappointed with Toshiba.

  I have the function keys working on the first month of windows 8. whenever a windows update broke that for me and after that the kys function no longer works.

  I reformatted the pc, I have tryied all what I found on the web, but the only thing I found is the added value of the package or the memory card controller is missing. I tried to install and reinstall all the versions, but it seems to be 32 bit and no 64-bit version. So I have to wait for the next release of PVAT

  Windows 8 was released many months and I think that the problem is not difficult to solve.

  Is it possible to return the function keys to live?

• MacBook Pro freezes and restarts when holding

  My Macbook Pro (MacBookPro9, 1 or MD103LL/A 2.3 GHz, OSX 10.11.4 i7) Decides to freeze and restart when lifted with the metal part under the trackpad and around it. It also does the same thing if I let my elbows on the same premises. What may be problem causing it? The machine already fell from anywhere and so, but suddenly decided to act strange. I opened the cover back after this problem and cleaned of dust or debris but did not find a noticeable amount either. The HARD drive has been replaced by an SSD at the Apple Store Amsterdam (Leidseplein) about 3 years ago and the problem has occurred for about a year.

  I would speculate that there is a bad internal connection.  Can you reproduce this every time?  If so, you may be able to locate it.

  Try an Apple Hardware Test.  It could offer a clue:

  Note that an error free AHT is inconclusive.

• Dell XPS 8900 System Desktop Computer "freezes and crashes.

  Recently, I bought a desktop computer Dell XPS 8900 with system Windows 7 professional responsible pre OP. The first thing I did was to make a list of list of all components of the system, the date and version of each. Then, I went to the Dell website, enter the number of computer and created a list of all the updates from Dell for this computer. Then I downloaded and installed all updates component except the update of BIOS that was the same version but there was no date for her.

  I have known hang ups and freezes since the beginning of the use of this computer and I keep having the same freeze and hang ups.
  With the number of complaints for the same problem, regardless of the operating system, you'd think Dell management and sales would recognize that there is a legitimate problem with this computer and assign their engineers to research the problem and issue a recall or a fix to the XPS 8900 users. I am a long time professional computer with more than 45 years in the it community. I always trusted Dell and their products recommended to family and friends, but also contacts in the it community and potential buyers. Dell can either acknowledge the problem with this product, and take appropriate corrective action or they can ignore the problem that won't go away, but the buyers of Dell products will be when the word gets out. I feel more comfortable buying or recommending Dell computers or for anyone.

  I am a computer programmer as well.  I seriously think to change my loyalty to another brand like HP.  It of outrageous they basically ignore the question, without taking into account my emails and means "Well" in phone calls.

  Hover over the HP forums if you think it's better there.  Lenovo also has their forums. So tell me what all the roses 'out there '.

• Dell Precision T3500 doesn't work and fans of becomes strong :(

  Hello

  My Dell Precision T3500 work not at all,

  When I run it, the CPU and the GPU fan fan becomes abnormally strong

  And nothing happens on the screen

  And I have this error (3-4) on the front of my case code
  in the user manual, this represents a failure of memory
  

  but I checked all components
  RAM-power - GPU - CPU
  It's all the worknig on my other computer Dell Precision

  I need help :(!

  If the memory is good, and the processor is good, after having tested on another machine, your motherboard needs to be replaced.  Part of the problem may be the processor slot or maybe it's the memory slot (because the first location NEEDS to be filled, it does not matter if the first location is only bad or if they all failed at the same time - if one does not work, no one else can be used)... whatever it is, the only difficulty you a new motherboard.

  If you cannot start your system, you can't Flash your BIOS.

  One last thing, you might try... Remove ALL (readers, cards, extension, mouse, keyboard, etc) the system except for the processor and a barrette of memory in the first place.

  Try another "last" thing... clear BIOS/memory NVRAM.  If there are no jumpers on the motherboard, and then disconnect the system, remove the battery, hold the power button for about 10 seconds, replace the battery, plug in and turn on.

• Port Replicator to the United Kingdom will work with US Portege R830?

  I guess you're meaning that this port replicator
  http://www.Toshiba.co.UK/discontinued-products/pa3838d-1PRP/

  It is mentioned that this Port Replicator is compatible with Portege R700 and Portege R830 series.
  European, along with Americans and Australians are very similar to each other so the port replicator, must be compatible.

  But I guess you need an AC wall adapter for plugging the European system in the United States
