• Problem installing BIOS update on the satellite U series

  Installation of Toshiba TEMPRO informed me there's an update of the BIOS (published April 7, 2010) must be installed.

  When I received this notification I downloaded the .zip file and extract its content - BIOS_UPDATE_V170.exe-, but the execution of this file, I got a popup error saying < file "c:\". ' is not accessible >. I decided there must be a bug in the installer that will be corrected in time, so I have nothing and waited.

  Today, I received another notice that the BIOS update was available, but even once, I get the same error. My c:\ folder seems OK!
  The BIOS file is in C:\TOSHIBA\ARSENAL10_10G_BIOS_UPDATE_V170_WIN where I extracted to (having initially tried to run my downloads folder, I thought I'd try also, but it seems to make no difference).

  Can anyone offer any suggestions? Any help is greatly appreciated.
  If not, how can I get advice from Toshiba?

  See you soon

• BIOS update fails on Satellite P100-429

  I had a bad flash on my Satellite P100-429.
  The utility crashed which left me with a bookend. Not happy

  I ve created a floppy crisis recovery disk & bought a USB floppy drive after a lot of internet hunting for info.
  Problem is that I need to check on the exact key combination for my laptop to the crisis recovery mode reverie.
  Power on I have the usual symptoms, LED flash, power for CD-rom, click on power of floppy etc...
  I just need to check the correct sequence for the combinations of keys.

  Can anyone help?
  Win - f, victory-b, f - fn, fn - b, victory-esc, fn-escape doesn t seem to work for me

  The waiting time for floppy drive boot after combination etc?
  Help!

  Hello

  I n t have experience with these tools of recovery of the BIOS because I think it s a little too risky. There is no official way to recover a BIOS and I don t want to destroy the whole ROM module.

  In my opinion if a BIOS update n t successful, you should go to an authorized service provider. Contact a technician for laptop and explain your situation. The technician can try to reflash it and they have more experience. I think that this should t be a problem to connect with one. ;)

  Good luck!

• Problem with external monitor when used with the Satellite P100-434

  I'm trying to use a Vizitron L - 151 monitor flat screen connected to the VGA port on the back of my Satellite P100 - 434 (PSPADE)

  I find that the screens seem to periodically - feeding cycle windows resize themselves and then the screens settle down again. This happens with the laptop and the external monitor.

  I've updated the latest available BIOS V4.20 (November 2, 2007) I use 7.15.11.6369 NVIDIA GeForce Go 7600 driver version. I'm under the edition of Vista Home Premium to standard build.

  I even resorted to the use of the dvd system recovery to rebuild completely the laptop and the problem persists. In Device Manager I have generic Non - PnP monitor and below that I have a generic PnP monitor I tried and it is not possible to get specific drivers for the monitor Vizitron L-151. * NOTE * I saw dxdiag that the external display is identified the Non - PnP device

  The display configuration that I'm trying to use is to have my laptop as the main screen with the external display on my left as an extension to the desktop. In display config my computer screen appears as number 2 with the additional display in the poster as a device 1

  While typing this my screens have made this three times and the last time, this IE7 window installs itself to the external display in restored down to size.

  If anyone has a glimpse of it, I would be very grateful. There are no problems when the external display is deleted.

  _I can reproduce this problem on demand_ by uninstalling the monitor Non - PnP Device Manager.

  Sorry, mate, but you ad confuses me a little and be hones I m not 100% sure what you take on
  You have some problems with the resolution of the external display or what?

  I've found another thread on the setting of the external screen as main screen:
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/message.jspa?MessageID=96263#96263

  According to this statement:
  > In display config my computer screen appears as number 2 with the additional display in the poster as a device 1
  It seems that the external monitor has been on the main screen and display books internal as external.

  I recommend you change this settings and to use books appear as 1 and the external display form 2.

• BIOS update failed on Satellite P100

  Hello! I have a Satellite P100.
  Yesterday, I updated the bios with the latest version launch windows Xp. But unfortunately windows crashed with BSoD (blue screen) during the update process.
  Now I brick my laptop. When I try to turn it on, the power LED light but that all.
  What can I do to solve my problem?
  I am in Israel, and they are no Toshiba support.
  I fell alone... help me
  Help me..
  h....

  Hello

  Sorry, he says, but there is not much to do. You will need to contact the ASP (authorized service provider) in your country for assistance.
  If you are a lucky man, motherboard maybe isn't the damage and the ROM module must be flashed only.

  You will also find the Toshiba AEP in Israel.
  Please check this page of Toshiba and search for ASP in Middle East-> Israel

• Update on the Satellite P100 (4200 RPM at 5400 RPM) HARD drive

  I had my laptop game Satellite P100-347, abandoned for a while now and want to give it to my little brother. This laptops come with 4200 RPM HARD drive and I would like to know if it is upgraded to a 5400 RPM / MIN 320 GB finally fails the system or am good to start!

  Thank you!

  Unfortunately, there is no public document on update on this model of laptop HARD drive and I can't say for sure but I believe that there should be any problem. If anyone post here own experience about these updates buy the HARD drive and test it.

  If there is a problem, you can send the HARD return drive.
  This info can be useful for other members of the forum. Because of this, please post the upgrade result.

• Try to get the HD-DVD player to work on the Satellite P100-463

  Hello world.
  I bought this baby the weekend and since I am struggeling trying to get HD-DVDs to work on it. I added the HD_DVD xbox 360 drive, but Power DVD Software Advisor continues to say that the graphic card 9Geforce Go 7900) drivers must be updated to read HD-DVD content. Now, there is no available such as newer driver installed (84.0?)

  Can someone please advise if the card supports protection hdcp anyway? Maybe my problem is another source.
  Thanks for the tips.

  Wait do you use player designed for the Xbox in the Satellite P100?
  Hmm, I m surprised that this device is compatible with the Toshiba laptop.
  Anyway, as far as I know you need a special DVD player to play and watch HD-DVD on the laptop.
  A simple WinDVD does not support the new HD-DVD.

  By the way: I know a Toshiba model that shipped with the HD_DVD drive.
  It was a Qosmio G30 DVD HD model.
  I found a new Nvidia GeForce Go7600 8.3.2.7 Version graphics card driver update in the download section of driver on the Toshiba site
  But I put t know if it s compatible with your card...

• A few questions about his, BIOS and drivers on Satellite P100

  Hello

  Just bought the Satellite P100-188, thought I'd go with a top brand machine, however, on commissioning I am a little concerned about the quality of the speakers who tend to sizzle and distort. If right or wrong I thought that Harman Kardon would deliver the goods. I tried the reset options in the Panel, but being a novice when it comes to search in the "engine room", I'm worried I have settle something important or worse clear settings. Can someone advise.

  NVidia also uncertain whether to update the drivers if early machine bought this week, I notice an update of the driver is available, the driver that is currently installed is version 8.3.2.0.

  Can anyone tell if the BIOS updates are also needed, once again an update 2.10 is shown available but with a WARNING of WTH UPDATE message. This sort of thing is far beyond my understanding of computers, so I would be grateful for anyone offering a perfect beginner tips.

  Hello

  The quality of the sound on the speakers depends on the design of laptops and laptop performance. As far as I know the speaker are a bit smaller than on multimedia laptops.
  If you want to change some of its settings Iwould recommend to go into the control panel and you should find the Manager Realtek HD sound effects. Here it is possible to change an option in the demo audio 3d.

  You also asked for a graphics card driver. You know that driver graphic Toshiba are not similar to the nVidia drivers. In addition the original nVidia drivers are not designed for the use of the laptop but for desktop PC.

  The update of the BIOS is not a simple thing. If you use bad BIOS or update procedure wrong so it is possible that you may damage the motherboard. So if the BIOS update is not necessary, you shouldn't t do.

• Satellite P100-473 - suddenly the screen turns black

  Hello

  Since a few days, I have a problem with my Satellite P100-473 (with Vista Home installed recently + teamspeak only) after you have installed the latest version of Nero (maybe a detail)
  and do not know how, all of a sudden the screen went black.
  I so reboot and still black but the laptop properly started, the screen is activated (light up/down).
  I'm trying not to switch the display on an external monitor (VGA and DVI) no signal.
  I remove the battery for a few minutes.

  After a lot of irritation I gave it a week, I am again yesterday and after two tests display return with an error (such as a debug message), I forgot to note due to the excitement... ten minutes later same problem again:'(.)
  Yesterday before restarting the screen, I wait to start completely > type my password > sound > wait a minute > and type ESC / enter key at random.

  Can you please help me to find the source of this problem and maybe the solution to solve?

  Thank you very much for your future assistance, I hope you understand my pathetic English
  Best regards

  Hello

  Wait. You said you use external LCD and an external LCD related to this laptop.
  Do you use an external monitor Samsung, and maybe have you installed MagicTune software on your laptop?
  Please check this box.

  As far as I know software Samsung MagicTune can permanently disable the integrated computer Toshiba LCD display screen. Why?
  Because the MagicTune software is designed for use with desktop computers that do not have a built-in LCD screen.
  If your integrated LCD display has been disabled by the MagicTune software, you will need to make an arrangement for repair with a Toshiba authorized Service partner.

  But I hope that you have not installed this software.

• HP Elite 8200 CMT: Bios Update after the update of Windows 10

  Hello, I've updated my HP Elite 8200 CMT from windows 7 to windows 10.

  In the HP driver download page, there is no updated BIOS for windows 10.

  But I noticed that it is has updated BIOS for Windows 7.

  The question is, can I use it on Windows 10?

  And generally to load OS updates to the BIOS?

  Hello:

  You can remove the base flash BACK of the package of BIOS file folder, simply copy the contents of the file flash BACK on a USB stick formatted with the FAT file system.

  Plug in a USB flash drive, restart the PC, press the ESC key to get the options menu.

  Select F10 system configuration to access the BIOS.

  Select the file menu > control system ROM Flash.  Select the USB flash drive.

  The PC will see the files on the flash drive.  Follow the instructions to update the BIOS screen.

  In this way, it makes no difference what operating system you are running.

  A very important point... I read the last 2.29 installing BIOS causes problems with the W10.

  There is a post on the forum about who...

  http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/business-PCs-workstations-and-point-of-sale-systems/HP-Compaq-8200-elite-SFF-slow-reboot-time-in-legacy-BIOS/m-p/5654549#M12815

  I use v2.28 on my HP 8200 Elite CMT and have no problem at all on W10.

  I have read that post and decided to not update the BIOS to v2.29.

• Problem of Tecra M5 BIOS update

  I downloaded the file from the Toshiba site and now have P003Fv370.exe. Race that happens just with "update of the BIOS is not supported OS, unsupported operating system or service pack is installed". I was under the impression that it was independent BONES? Please help, I need to update to stop it crashing and blue screening me every half hour. I have already installed the value-added package.

  I have a Toshiba Tecra M5 PTM51E
  Running Windows 7 Enterprise
  Current installed BIOS is version 1.70

  I also read somewhere on the installation with a USB key, if someone could help I would appreciate it. Thank you.

  Post edited by: deleting
  Just tried again and it says "Could not create"C:\TOSHBIOS. " UPD file! "I don't know what is happening more.

  Hello

  The P003Fv370.exe is a package.
  Right click on that package and select unpack here.
  Now you should see the other folders inside this .exe package.

  From my knowledge, it takes a file that starts the BIOS update.

  If it won't work, I guess you need the original preinstalled system Toshiba update BIOS.
  The other hand I n t think that BSOD appears due to the old version of the BIOS.
  I guess that the update does not solve the problem.

  Maybe the BSOD appears due to a problem of critical software or hardware issues so would be really interesting to know if the same thing happens with the help of preinstalled Toshiba system

• Updating the BIOS is dead the satellite Pro P300-1AY

  Hi all

  found this forum and really hoping that he can help me!
  I bought a satellite Pro P300-1AY two years ago, it cost me £900 nr so I thought it would be worthy of a purchase.

  A year ago the USBs stopped working, I do it every working solution I could think of anything will do, finally gave up and learned to live without USBs!

  However, a few weeks ago, the laptop at the start stop, I didn't get was the black screen. Probably a video problem I did all the memory check hard drive everything else, however, it was only an intermittent problem, I found if I he tilted on the side she would begin, another thing to live with!

  But two days ago, I heard that if I've updated the BIOS, it could solve all my problems. so I went to the Toshiba site, found the BIOS updated and downloaded, but to halfway through the installation, the laptop froze and I couldn't t he put it off and had to take the battery out to turn it off!

  And ve you may have guessed, he's now won t start. Even its worst, LED lights, and if I put a disc in the cd I can hear it whirring, but that s it.

  Is - this irreparable? I ve heard of priming of the cd with the original BIOS with a combination of keys or I'm hoping against hope?
  Ty for your time in reading :)

  Hello

  > Is it irretrievably? I ve heard of priming of the cd with the original BIOS with a combination of keys or I'm hoping against hope?

  Well, usually the BIOS could once again be reflashed, but you would need a traditional version of the BIOS update.
  This version is available for Toshiba FSA.

  So you will need to get in touch with a local ASP technician that could reflash the Rom BIOS module.
  Eventually, after this update the specifications would be stable.

  Good luck

• Update BIOS password on the Satellite P200

  Hello

  I had a model number P200 laptop computer satellite PSPB6E-03G02TEN fongr in the last two months.

  On the navigation of the Toshiba support and dowloads I looked up my model etc number to see what that downloads were available. Is he saying there were several updates and the other that it was an update of the bios. As the current bios was for 2007 and it was for 2008, I thought I might as well upddate.

  Being a beginner and not realizing how the bios is on a computer - and there is nothing to say it needed an expert--I have conclusive to download.

  I thought it was going well and he came to my computer to restart. However, when it happened it says it need a password and did doesn't have a clue what they were talking about. The recovery disk has failed.

  I contacted Toshiba and I now have to take the laptop to a Toshiba service repairman here in Poole, Dorset.

  I am now worried in case I've done something that invalidate my warranty.

  Why Toshiba do not send these updates if they can do this damage in inexperienced hands. I'm angry at myself and would not have hit with a barge pole if I had know the importance of the bios. I know that I will never touch it again.

  Would appreciate some sympathy.

  Hello

  I understand your situation. You´re worried but not just for you, also about Toshiba why they release these updates for important parts of a computer that do not work correctly.
  Don t worry, you do nothing wrong. Your warranty would be invalid after that. The repair will be covered by the warranty of your machine and after that nothing cannot be revoked or not valid. So Don t worry, the guys in the shop/repair service center will fix this and I hope that you´re not worried to do a BIOS update next time.

  I promise you it happened only once and you don t have doubts if it will never happen. I mean, I have computers laptop toshiba for years and I have never such problems. With this bios password, I found a big problem the first time Toshiba and I hope that they won´t remake such a failure.

  Welcome and good weekend
