  • Configuration of the BIOS XW8600 for SSD and HDD

    Until recently, my xw8600 has been configured with the emulation of SATA under storage on the separate IDE controller Options.  250 GB hard drives connected to the SATA 1 and SATA ports 0 and readers of DVD RW Drive connected to 2 SATA and SATA 3 ports.

    I wanted to install a GTX240 Neutron Corsair SSD, but discovered when I changed the SATA RAID + DCIS emulation (to activate all 5 ports of SATA controller and optimize the performance of the SSD), the system could not find the boot drive.  I checked the startup command settings and found the slot drive HARD listed title module of memory into the attached USB printer HP Officejet 7500 a first and could not be changed.

    I decided to go back to SATA IDE emulation separate, remove the optical drive on SATA 2 port and attach the SSD it.  This facility is expected to start successfully; but after installing windows 7 x 64 on the SSD (Windows XP, x 64, still on the HARD drive), I found Windows 7 has been very very slow.

    Can anyone offer any suggestions or comments on how I can improve this situation?

    Thanks for any help, you can suggest.

    What is an installation of Windows 7 Pro 64 - bit of a retail installation DVD purchase, or something HP?  If I remember well Vista 64 was the latest HP OS with sold.  In this case you won't have to deal with a set of HP restore disks.  I would never do an "upgrade" of a prior installation of OS in W7.  I only do not clean install W7 on a freshly long-type reformatted hard drive or an SSD.  I buy my "system builder" OEM license W7Pro 64 - bit DVD/COA from newegg.com (you can find that many sources and approximately 140.00 each).

    Plan to do a clean install on this SSD from scratch and when you format before that settle does long formatting version, while it is booted from the W7 DVD.  That will take some time.  Or, if you have a functioning before the OS install on a hard drive, you can restore the xw8600 you can connect the SSD in the second or third SATA port and reformat (long version) management of records like this.

    The boot drive or SSD, Spinner, must always be connected to the primary SATA port, which in these workstations, is usually blue plastic, while the rest are a dark black.

    Make sure that your BIOS is later... There was a version for this and the xw6600 with a few months ago.  It is an important.

    Put the SSD in your favorite mount, hang it in the main SATA port, prepare the W7 DVD in the DVD drive (which should be attached to the second port SATA or IDE cable if it's a DVD ATA drive). Throwing xw8600, go straight into the BIOS and go to which you can change the SATA emulation.  Change that on "RAID + AHCI.  Save on the way out of the BIOS, and the workstation will now reboot usually requiring formal approval of the change F1.

    Demarrer start on the DVD, select clean install and things will be fine.  I usually set my boot order to start hard drive/SSD first and second optical drive.  Then, when I load an OS I just use the F9 key during the early start to switch to the DVD player for this single event.

    It's the key information: If you have correctly set to "RAID + AHCI" SATA emulation for the W7 installation process, then the appropriate drivers will not be loaded from the DVD on the startup disk, and you won't receive anywhere near your expected speed.  I helped a friend who had done exactly what you did, and when we corrected things literally double SSD performance scores.  I recommend that the reformatting/clean reinstall from zero here, because you want to really perfect the basics and the way he was treated initially can leave you with a few important questions.

    After you have things working with the SSD and the DVD player you can add in your other material sequentially.  I would like to make a reboot between each addition, just be very careful.  Some old HP DVD drives have a problem with W764 loading during the emulation of the SATA BIOS is set correctly and there is a solution for this, but you don't want from now this info.

    All the advice I have written in this forum about the xw6400 installs apply to the xw6600 and xw8600, including information on the upgrades of the processor.

    Let us know how things are, so that others can enjoy...

  • Tecra A9 - compatibility/AHCI in the BIOS mode

    The Toshiba Tecra A9 seems to have a serious lack of implementation of the BIOS: it has an Intel ICH8 - M - SATA controller capable of running in Intels so-called "handset Mode" that allows it to act as a controller SATA AHCI, a normal IDE controller or mix the two for various channels.
    The BIOS allows to adjust it to the "compatibility" - mode that seems to work correctly by running in the IDE for all channels mode, but the mode "AHCI" seems to be set up wrongly. AHCI is a standard for SATA devices that is widely used and the Tecra A9 defines only the hard disk to use SATA AHCI - optical drive CD/DVD-ROM rest in IDE mode which leads to conflicts of pilots as only one driver can access the controller in DMA mode - when the value of both SATA and IDE modes, two drivers are needed for one physical chip.
    'AHCI' in the BIOS must activate the peripheral subject connected to the controller is running in SATA AHCI mode, but as I already said, it is not. Only the hard drive will be displayed as SATA device.

    For me, this looks like a defect in the BIOS that needs to be repaired.

    Best regards
    Peter

    Hello

    I think that it s perhaps a default, but you done already encountered problems with the execution of the "compatibility mode" where the CD/DVD drive (IDE ;)) works in "IDE mode"?

    Do you have a few mistakes or something similar? If so, then it s probably REALLY a bug, but if not, maybe this 'combined mode' (I know what you´re talking about my old 875P Chipset and my ICH5 have the same thing) works correctly.
    In my machine (desktop computer with a DFI Lanparty 875P and northwood at 3 Ghz) runs in the "handset mode" so that everything works to make it compatible in "IDE" mode But I Don t a loss of performance.
    It s not as fast when I drive in pure SATA mode, but then my DVD won't work.

    So, if you have problems with the machine then I agree, otherwise "it s not a bug, it s a feature" ;)

  • Cannot Flash the BIOS on A100 (PSAA8E) - flash process freezes

    Hey everybody.

    I am owner of a laptop Toshiba Satellite A100-283 (PSAA8E-1DL044GR)

    I intend to move the CPU (T1350) to a T2400 dual core.

    Before I open the laptop to install the new CPU, I want to assure you that the BIOS will support it-so, I want to upgrade the BIOS to the newest 6.00 version on the Toshiba support site.

    The flash BIOS (S10V600.exe) file is a self-extracting RAR starts automatically the good process of WinPhlash.

    Unfortunately, the last step in the WinPhlash process does not start.
    Instead, the system locks up completely with a CPU usage to 100% (spinning fan at full speed).

    The new BIOS only if written to the BIOS chip since I hard-restarting the laptop and normally boot my linux system. The BIOS is always the version 2.00.

    My questions:

    -Any of you who have already updated the BIOS on this system knew what could cause this?
    -What operating system did you use to Flash the BIOS?

    I was running Flash on a WinXP SP3 LiveCD (Hiren Boot CD) utility, the file loading flash BIOS from a USB storage device (I don't have Windows and would like to avoid to get a new SATA drive and install a 'real' windows there just to upgrade my BIOS, but I would if it could be the only way to get the BIOS flashed)

    Your help is greatly appreciated, thanks and greetings from Germany to the rest of Europe!

    > Before I open the laptop to install the new CPU, I want to assure you that the BIOS will support it-thus, I would like to upgrade the BIOS to the newest 6.00 version on the Toshiba support site

    First update the BIOS won't help you if the old BIOS would not support the new processor.
    In General, you can only use the CPU that is supported by the chipset.
    As much as I know, that the new processors are not added to new versions of BIOS
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

    > What OS did you use to Flash the BIOS?
    Since the available BIOS version is based on the Windows version, you must use the Windows which has been pre-installed by Toshiba.
    In many cases, the update of the BIOS requires VAP (value added package) which is necessary if you are running Vista or Win7.

  • Re: Satellite A100-803 PSAANE won't start no-glued on the Bios POST

    Hello

    I have the following problem with a laptop computer to a customer.
    After having turned it on, it has the logo Toshiba rest on and everything is hanging there.

    After pressing ESC, there is a message: "NO TPN or TPN has problem.
    So, I think that the Bios broke down. How, I don't know.

    Trying to enter in the setup by pressing F2 system displays "enter the configuration" but nothing happens. He stayus on this screen.
    Is there a solution I can try to recover the Bios damaged from a USB or a USB floppy drive.

    I checked the Toshiba support site, there is a Bios Update, but it is a program that should be started in Windows so I can't use it.
    Anyone have an idea how I can recover the corrupted Bios.
    I have already removed the battery and the power and hold the powerbutton to for +-30 sec, but that does not solve the problem.

    Thanks for help out me.

    Hello

    You are right. There are, it's no BIOS which can be not started BOF on floppy or USB key.
    You must update the BISO running windows OS.
    But according to your message, it is not possible.

    If you have no alternative but to contact the maintainer authorized Toshiba in your country.
    Guys should be able to help you. I presume that the technicians have access to the traditional BIOS version that can be updated using a disk.

  • Satellite Pro 4320 - update the BIOS

    Hello

    Can someone tell me how to upgrade the bios on a Satellite Pro 4320?

    I downloaded the update of the Toshibas files download area and read the instructions, but in vain.

    It doesn't seem to be a flash Bios of Windows for the 4320 utillity, so I just downloaded the zip file and place content (1 Exe, 1 tray, 1 Pdf) on a floppy, rebooted the laptop holding F12 but I got was 3 lines of text in German and a DOS prompt - I know that I downloaded from the site of English support because I did it 3 times now!

    Thank you

    Barry

    Hello

    It is a statement of the BIOS update:

    1. step:
    Use a (not bootable) 1.4 MB 3.5 "floppy and copy the BIOS files on it."
    2. step:
    Turn off the machine, turn it on by now pressed the F12 key
    and choose to boot from the diskette.
    For more recent machines, press the ALT key and the SPACEBAR
    The rest is automatic.

    If there is only a problem please read the information to update the BIOS on the Web site.

  • Z50-75, does not start after the bios update

    Hi all!

    I just baught Z50-75 with AMD FX7500, 8 GB of Ram and FreeDOS. I installed Windows Pro 8.1 and they shot a few drivers during the installation and I went to the view of Lenovo and downloaded all the rest (graphics, camera, etc.), after each installation the computer restarted normally and everything was OK The latest drivers I've seen on the site were originally from the BIOS and I downloaded those to and he started the installation, after which he said: "the system will now restart for the changes to take effect" and he did, but it wouldn't start after he did that show me this on the screen:

    And I tried both options (either with the Windows CD inside), but it just stays where it is, no effect.

    I can enter the bios and change the settings, but none of them seem to work because that's the maximum where it will go, the only difference is when I change from AHCI to compatibility mode, it restarts and I get a white screen, I have to use a button recovery to return to the image above...

    I appriciate any help kond, please give me some advice.

    Thanks for the reply!

    I solved the problem after updating the bios, communication between it and the disk hard drive had a few problems and is causing the boot problem. I solved with out the hard drive and install on another laptop, flashed the windows and installed the hard back in my Lenovo, and that worked.

    You tell the truth, I don't really know how it was the solution, but it worked, I guess that Flash just windows helped the hard disk to create the new connection to the bios, that the first was simply corrupted by an error during the update of the bios...

    Now, I know that the bios update is the last solution I'll never use, and of course, save all peace of data I had on the hard drive if possible.

    Hi AxshunJaxun,

    I thank very you much for your detailed and helpful response.

    I had already tried all of those, but your screenshot of a Win7 installation has helped me tremendously.

    You see, I tried to install the original version of Windows Media Center Edition (MCE) 2005, which corresponds to the label of license on the underside of the laptop.

    So after seeing your post I threw a Win7 disc in the drive and tried to install it, just to see how the installation program.

    Not surprisingly, the Win7 installer detects the disc perfectly but report it as being on an advanced interface for AHCI.

    Unfortunately, I don't have an additional license for Win7, so I am forced to persevere with Win MCE.

    So, now I'm at the stage of trying to force the installation of Win MCE program to see the HARD drive by installing the 3rd AHCI driver.

    For the moment, I have the installer of Win MCE see my external floppy drive but I can't find the right drivers for the HARD disk controller. Installing Windows reports that "the txtsetup.oem file is not found.

    I tried to download and run the Intel SATA AHCI Controller driver file to http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-39535-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&os=228&product=3255527&sw_lang= , but it fails with the error 'error Windows N. 5 access is denied. Disk error n. 69 on track 0, head 0 "or"the current image format is not supported by the drive.

    EDIT: I used WinImage to unpack the disk image file and manually wrote the files on a diskette.

    Thanks again for your help, it seems to have worked. Will update again when the installation ends.

  • State of the hard drive, the 'Frozen' value in the bios, no registered password?

    My ACER Aspire 5733 shows the HARD drive as 'Frozen' in the bios and, of course, does not start to her.

    There is no administrator password or user saved, but it shows the HARD drive as "Frozen" in the security of the bios screen.

    If I take the drive hard on and restart, it is not, as planned, when I put it in, reboot, go directly to the bios, it now shows the status of the HDD as "Clear" as the other password two States. BUT if I then reboot, instead of from Windows, it shows no bootable devices. Then when I check again the bios, the State of the hard drive is back in '' Frozen '' and two other passwords are always 'Clear' as before.

    Does anyone know how to fix this?

    I tried a few reboots, and even with another hard drive installed, he always does this.

    I have corrected it.

    He kept returning to the State of 'Frozen' on the hard drive even after the recommended Acer fix found here:http://acer.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/32674/~/bios-password-frozen#_ga=1.262809484.160920...

    After trying the procedure, he always returned to '' Frozen '' on the first restart during the installation of Windows.

    So what I did that.

    When I came back to the State where all three passwords security read "Claire", for the very next reboot, I updated the bios to the latest version. I used the pure BACK method.

    After stopping when the bios update has been done, the 'Clair' State was still intact. I * think * rest of the State of "Clear", as long that you go directly into the bios after that, and the problem was that it was not saved when you plan does not directly in the bios. On the next reboot after update bios, I started to install windows and THIS time after update BIOS, the first reboot during windows installation has NOT led to a State "Frozen" hard drive.

    So I think there may be a bug in the bios of last second for this camera, because it doesn't seem to be able to actually save the State of the hard drive correctly password.

  • Dead laptop after the BIOS update. How can I restore original BIOS?

    Model: HP Pavilion m7-1015dx

    Original OS: Windows 7

    Current operating system: 64-bit Windows 8

    Problem:

    I tried to update the BIOS by using this file:

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-124651-1&cc=us&DLC=en&LC=en...

    Release: 2013-10-08
    File name: sp63801.exe [1/1, 6.56 M]
    Version F.29

    He gave me a Blue Screen of Death and the computer restarted. After the restart I only get a black screen, the fan comes on but there is no text and no way to access the BIOS, or the start menu.

    The led caps lock starts to blink twice, then stops for 1 ~ second then blinks twice again and again, indefinitely. This, according to HP, suggests a failure of the BIOS Corruption.

    What I tried:

    I do not have the HP recovery partition, so I tried to install the two update of UEFI BIOS HP SoftPAQ and HP UEFI support SoftPAQ environment on a FAT32 USB key named HP_TOOLS. I tried these tools separately, at the same time. I tried them with 3 different bios downloaded from this site. I hold the button windows and B, then turn on the computer. Nothing happens. I tried Fn and B, holding them for different periods, there are no beeps, no text on the screen, nothing. The led on the USB key blinks ten times at the beginning and then stops, then starts flashing caps lock. I tried to put the .bin file in different folders in the USB port, including the root, same result. No.SIG file is in the bios I downloaded.

    I am on mobile, excuse the errors. What Miss me?

    The message here by 'jayvastani' seems to work for many. The only thing different from his post a year ago would be to skip step 4. The rest should be all you need. Good luck!

  • Windows 7 installation recognize SSD or HDD after (rate?) Update the BIOS

    Brief statement of the problem

    After a failed BIOS update (computer is turned off during the update), the computer would not start, indicating that it could not find an operating system.  I tried to reinstall Windows 7, but the installer does not recognize one of my hard drives or SSD internal here which was installed Win7 and my boot drive is - that it recognizes my external my book Duo (backup) but that doesn't help me.  The SSD and two internal hard drives still appear in CMOS and Partition Wizard, however.  How can I get the installation of Windows to recognize my hard drive, so I can repair or reinstall Windows?

    Note: I borrowed pieces of this post that I found on line since December 2015 since the circumstances mirror mine near each other.  In this case, the answer that seemed to work for the poster should go to Dell support, download the latest SATA RAID drivers and put them on a USB stick, then load them in when requested by the Windows Installer.  I tried to do this, but, assuming I have the right drivers, nothing appears in the same installation of Windows area after loading in the drivers the most recent that I found and put on USB from Dell.

    Specifications of the computer

    Desktop computer Alienware Aurora R4, at Alienware March 2013 purchased
    CPU: Intel Core i7 - 3820K @ 3.6 GHz
    RAM: 16GB Quad Channel DDR3
    Hard drive: 2562 GB SSD (SAMSUNG ATA SSD PM83 SCSI Disk Device)
    Secondary (storage) hard: 2 TB internal installed at the factory (Western Digital)

    Tertiary HD: 1 TB (I installed myself, since I had an extra, Setup has worked well for years)
    GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660
    OS: Windows 7 64-bit (not sure if Premium version?) family

    Readers are not in a RAID configuration.

    History of troubleshooting

    After nearly three years of use without problem, my fans were really loudly all the time - even at rest and I rarely do anything intensive CPU/GPU.  According to the information found online, I downloaded and installed the latest version of controls thermal/Alienware Command Center.  Who has not solved the problem of fan and makes thermal controls were not give readings that the more - basically said that the pump of the CPU had failed and that all shows as 0 degrees Celsius.  The information provided by the support forums, I decided to upgrade the BIOS (from v.7 to v.11) using updater downloaded from the Dell support site [perhaps a bad idea, in hindsight, I must admit, but same manual fan controls were not helping the issue].

    As the PC has been reset during the update of the BIOS, the computer fans started running at a very high speed - much more quickly that I had never heard before.  I was afraid that my computer was damaged, but I let go still for a long time.  After about 5 minutes, I foolishly forced a shutdown of the computer.  [Yes, I know, it was really, really stupid - well based on the fact that my computer does not boot up to BIOS and from what I've seen elsewhere online it seems the BIOS update went through, although with messed up settings.]

    After that, the computer would not start.  The error message indicates missing BOOTMGR.  I downloaded partitionwizard on the idea that it was a problem of partition/MBR and, of course, both my SSD (marked as "boot + active") and a secondary drive have been marked active. I did the second disc "inactive".  Assistant Creation of partition also shows not all of my readers, including their scores, correctly.

    In troubleshooting, I had also used my Alienware installation disc and tried to repair or reinstall Windows.  In all cases, the Win7 installation/repair program found no any operating system or hard drives. When I went to the prompt from the installation disk and tried DISKPART "list disk" or BOOTFIX. EXE, they only listed my MyBook external Duet (which I disconnected since then and now no discs see)-I've never seen the internal boot SSD or either of the other internal readers everything in Windows 7 install the program. Using various BOOTFIX. EXE options such as /fixmbr and /scanos help not - they complete "correctly" really quickly without effect or tell me that there is no OS.

    Now when I try to load up, I don't you the message BOOTMGR but rather get a topic that there is no current boot device and how I should insert the bootable media.

    I then tried to reuse the Alienware Windows 7 disc to reinstall Windows 7, but the installation program could not even find a hard drive.

    I also tried to install Windows on a USB bootable, but had the same result.

    Can I enter the CMOS configuration very well.  I can make and save changes to it very well.  It seems normal, and it correctly lists all three internal hard drives.  POST also correctly lists all of my hard drives.

    I saw the reference to change its RAID settings in the CMOS Setup, but my only two options are RAID or ACHE and none who changes the situation.

    I'd be fine with Windows 7 reinstallation on the SSD drive (would rather not do that, ideally, but it's just a disc of starting with some Steam games on it so easy enough to recreate). I don't have my documents among other internal readers backed up but I have not seen anything that makes me think that these readers have been affected, just that I have to get the recognized internal disks somehow.  As simple as somehow becomes the right drivers loaded in, and if so, how do I do that (previously, I downloaded all three files that lists by Dell under "storage device" and "drivers" option of the Setup disk to load on the support page and unzipped on a USB and used in, but that does not in the operating system appears so installation/repair access)?  Or am I missing some other step?

    Please let me know if screenshots or more information would be helpful - happy to give them once I am home and back in front of this computer.

    Thanks in advance!

    The value of the BIOS:
     
    SATA Mode = AHCI Mode
    = UEFI boot mode

    Win7-DVD, Win-8-DVD, or a Win-10 USB flash drive should start now. Use the one-time-starting F12 menu.
     
    For Win - 8 or install Win - 10, if the SecureBoot option is available, it probably should be activated.

    Connect only the Boot C: drive for now.

    Install only on a blank disc (no existing partitions, OEM, or other).

    And if the UEFI Mode does not work, you can always try to MBR (Legacy BIOS).

    If the SSD is detected in the BIOS, it is a good sign. However, if it continues to not work anywhere, you need to plug into a USB tester or external USB enclosure and connect the computer to work... to test for signs of life.

Maybe you are looking for
