• Question about updating the BIOS for Qosmio G20

  I downloaded the updated the BIOS of my pc, not the Qosmio, the instructions say it will unpack into 3 files, one being a floppy disk installation. When I unzip on my desktop pc, it makes a file that s too big for a floppy and he won t unzip further because it locks up my pc.

  Is it safe to make it work on my desktop pc it can unzip then in the three files and this will affect my BIOS or y at - it somewhere that I can download the floppy part on its own to load on a floppy?

  Hello

  Just a question;
  You have downloaded the Qosmio G20 BIOS on the desktop computer, unpacked and now you want it please on the diskette in the floppy drive.
  Is this good?

  So now my suggestion;
  Firstly that the Qosmio G20 BIOS and other BIOS Toshiba cannot be updated using the floppy! This isn't traditional BIOS!
  The BIOS from the Toshiba page must be updated when the Windows operating system is running!

  By the way: you can unpack the BIOS on your desktop computer, but don t try to run all files, because the bad BIOS can damage the motherboard ROM module!

  Hello

  If your laptop has problems that cannot be resolved with an update of the driver if a new version of the BIOS could solve some problems. But as Sylvain said if the laptop works correctly you do not need to do any update of the BIOS because the incorrect BIOS procedure may damage the motherboard.

  Hello

  I agree with Andrew. Think twice before you take BIOS update. Is there a reason to do the update of the BIOS? Have you noticed a strange behavior with your laptop or the reason must be updated?

• Time to update the BIOS and firmware of remote management?

  I'll put up a 'new' ThinkServer RD630 (2954A6U). It was purchased for a project that never happened, and we are now dry and reuse to replace an old Office Server. The current firmware versions are:

  • BIOS: 2.05
  • ME: 2.1.5.73
  • BMC 1.7
  • IPMI 2.0

  Page 61 of the User Guide ThinkServer says, "update the BIOS on your server only if the new BIOS version specifically solves a problem you have. We don't recommend updates to the BIOS for servers that do not need. [...]"

  As far as I know, we have no problems. The system starts fine and runs Windows Server 2012 well enough.

  HERE'S MY QUESTION:

  Should I update the BIOS and firmware IMM (remote management) to the current version? Are there hidden problems, security issues or other concerns that it is worth?

  Other indicators of initial configuration that you can share with a new admin would be much appreciated, too! Thank you.

  With the help of the Lenovo Support, I was able to fix my problem where I couldn't get to the menu of the BIOS of the 630 RD (in F1) and all I saw was a cursor on the screen. I describe the procedure in detail here:

  https://forums.Lenovo.com/T5/ThinkServer-rack-mounted/BIOS-settings-blank-with-cursor-after-BIOS-UPD...

  Thank you to all those who commented above and especially to those who have sent me suggestions via PMs.

• How can I update my BIOS and DRIVERS

  I have problems with my graphics card and after talking to support AMD, I find that I have to update my BIOS. the brand is award Software International Version FB.   I passed the link and found a link BIOS AGENT PLUS, is it safe to use and it's FREE?   I let it scan and he told me that I should update the BIOS and several DRIVERS.

  If necessary I'll send info of SPECCY.  All of the above parameters are 6 years of age.

  Thank you!

  'Smart TV' is a term used to describe TVs that incorporate Internet marketing functions.  You can connect your 'smart TV' to your network home directly, without the need for an intermediate device.

  If you have already a device such as a Blu - Ray, Roku player, game console, etc., that can connect to the Internet and then to your TV (to provide access to services such as Netflix and other streaming media sites), then you don't need a smart TV - although from what I can tell, 'resourcefulness' will appear on the models more not just high-end models.

• Update the BIOS and system health report question

  I have two questions to ask you.

  1. I just bought a Quad DV6T-7000 a month ago. I'm unable to create a report of health system through the control panel > performance & information > advanced tools > generate system health report.  I get an error saying "cannot run" with no other information. It apparently came from HP in this way. Something has been corrupted? I have configured my laptop the way I like it and have installed all programs and applications of my previous laptop, so I hope that I don't need to do an installation of windows 7 to fix this. It is not really important. But it should work.

  2 HP Support Assistant automatically installs updates to bios, or is it something that has to be done manually? I am currently set to auto critical or important updates. There is an update of the bios (f.22 I think) available for my Pavilion DV6T - 7000 Quad Edition, however, I am wary to update my bios given the many problems that people have after doing an update their bios.  So far, HP support Assistant has not notified me of the update and I have problems with the problems it addresses. Should I be worried?

  Thank you, appreciate your making this feature expert day!

But it should work. , You can run the System File Checker to see if there are problems of file system.  Open a command prompt with admin permissions and type sfc/scannow, and then on enter. The files of your operating system will be inspected and the files that are supposed to be corrupted or damaged will be replaced with fresh copies of the repository own Windows file.  If this does not resolve the problem, then I suggest that you run Windows update. There may be an update that resolves this problem

Should I be worried? I recommend not updating the BIOS if everything works. Updated the BIOS, just because you can, this is certainly an adventure risky for most people.

  Does your laptop have a UEFI environment.  This in fact safe update the BIOS if you decide to do.

   

  You can set the HP Support Assistant to install updates or to notify you when updates are available.

  I recommend that you do not set automatically update anything. My preference is that the Windows operating system and the laptop / desktop only doing what I want to do and when I want them to... That way I don't get surprises not unexpected and mysterious death blue screens or black screens.

• Question of updating the BIOS for Qosmio F50 - 10 k

  Hiya:

  + This Bios update adds functionality to your system. +
  + (BIOS stands for Basic Input and Output System. This program is stored in a chip memory dead on the motherboard. +
  "+ When the computer turns on, the BIOS is launched to perform various functions to start). +

  + For detailed updated information, please refer to Toshiba-setting to update BIOS Information +.

  + Toshiba - 2.00 - WIN32 Qosmio F50 +.

  It will work on toshiba F50 - 10 k, Windows xp, sp 3?

  [Notebook-> Qosmio-Qosmio series > F-> Qosmio F50 | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_bios.jsp?service=EU]

  Post edited by: kirekk

  Qosmio F50 - 10 k belongs to the series of PQF55E.
  If you want to update the BIOS, you will need to use the BIOS exactly for the F50 PQF55E series.

  The European driver Toshiba page provides BIOS for Vista 32-bit and 64-bit OS.
  But this does not mean that you cannot use the Win XP

  I think you can use the Win XP but the fact is that the BIOS has been optimized for Vista and not XP

  The BIOS update should work also on XP, but in some rare cases the update cannot be performed and in this case, you will need to the Toshiba preinstalled the operating system in order to update the BIOS

• Question of updating the BIOS of the Tecra M10

  Hello

  I own a Tecra M10-10 q (abbreviated model: PTMB1E)
  I received a few days ago an automatic alert of Toshiba TEMPRO to inform a new BIOS driver.

  After downloading and extracting the .zip file, I launched the executable: P0065v190.exe
  Asked me to confirm that I want to date of current version BIOS BIOS package version 1.90 1.50

  When I click on 'Yes', I got a popup window titled: "TOSHIBA BIOS Package version 3.2.9!
  with between other precautions, the following statement:
  "Disable BitLocker Drive Encryption in Windows Vista before updating the BIOS"

  A google search on what is "BitLocker Drive Encryption" and how to disable it, informs that it is under the heading 'Security' in the control panel.
  However, I can't find anything like "BitLocker", when I click on 'Security' in the Panel!

  So, I cancelled the update procedure. But I like to keep my system uptodate!
  What should I do? Where to find the BitLocker? How to make a such BIOS update?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  Windows Bit locker drive BitLocker is a data protection feature that is available ONLY in Windows Vista Enterprise, Windows Vista Ultimate and Windows Server 2008.

  If you don t have one of these versions of Vista, then a Bilocker is NOT available on your preinstalled system!

  With regard to the update of the BIOS;
  I'm always that notice; never change a running system; so, if the laptop works properly and without problem a BIOS update is not necessary that s my personal opinion

  See you soon

• UPDATE THE BIOS AND HARD DRIVE

  Hi, I'm going to do a clean install of win. 7 home Premium and I would like to upgrade the Bios and installing a hard drive SSD 120 GB and 2 GB of ram.

  Desktop PC

  5226Model #: CQ5226UK
  Product #: VS273AA-ABU
  Serial No.:[personal information deleted]
  Software Build #: 94WEv6PrA3
  Service ID #: 111-709
  PCBRAND: Presario

  3200AAJS-60M0A0 320 GB WD HARD DRIVE

  Intel pentium dual core 2.6

  PC built Sept 2009

  I looked at the Hp site but could not find an update for my bios.  Mobo is Foxconn Eton 1.0 and the Bios is FRIEND 5.05 25.09.2009

  A scan utility (Bios Agent) indicates that there is an update, but they require payment for flashing the bios.  In case I have some concerns, and many would prefer to download Hp or Foxconn.  I looked on the sites Web from Foxconn and FRIEND, but they require a lot & a lot of information that I don't have and don't know where to find them. I was hoping someone might have the same PC to give me information.

  Also to install the disk SSD drive I brobably would need an adapter to allow the reader to 2.5 inches to fit into the drive 3.5 "bracket. Apart from this, the connectors on the SSD drives all seem to be the same.  is this correct please or will it take a SSD and a specific to my PC case and my existing hard drive adapter.

  Thank you

  Hi thanks for your help, advice and information: my PC was purchased in January 2009 is a little more than 4 years.  The upgrade would cost 130 pounds. I could not buy a decent PC with 4 GB ram and an SSD for under £500.   I do not download music or movies, or make more than a small base video editing so I'm sure that with these improvements, there will be more than enough for me.

  One thing doesn't bother me.  It seems that when buying a PC Bios updates are available for the first 2/3 years, but not thereafter.  It would not have occurred to me to look for an update of the bios, during this period just simply because I thought that they were issued only when necessary to take into account improvements and new technologies so thanks for that. you live & learn.

  I'm trying to teach me the 'nuts & bolts' repair and fix PC problems and I guess that's the main use for my PC.  Experiment with a new £500 Pc would scare me to death.

  I'm on Linux Ubuntu 13.1 without any problems on my PC Dell 9 years and XP Pro on my HP Pavilion 13, so maybe I can do my Compaq last a little longer.

  Once again thank you very much.  its part of the process of learning.  see you soon

• Satellite X 200-219: Question about updating the display driver?

  Sad tales I've heard talk about manufacturers of laptop never updated to gfx card drivers apply to toshiba?

  Any info on the question of whether an update for their SLi systems drivers display is on the horizon?

  see you soon-

  The fact is that display driver cannot be updated daily as for desktop computers. Priority by the manufacturers of cell phones is worrying about the operation of the equipment. Using new graphics card drivers will be forced to run faster and better that offers better graphics performance. The result is essentially an overheating and may end with a faulty graphics card.

  In this case, the card mother together must be exchanged and it costs a lot of money. So, I think that no one can say with certainty when the next pilot will be available.

• Satellite A100-599 - question about updating the display driver

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A100-599 with a NVIDIA 7600go graphics card and I like most of you Bioshock game crashes because of some problems with the graphic card drivers, no pb... Meanwhile, NVIDIA has released some new patches for the Forceware and after I double checked the database of the Toshiba driver support I've seen a new version in the list of display driver for WinXp.

  One of them seems to be 13/09/2007. I have downloaded the drivers, installed them and then I checked the details of the driver in the Device Manager list and to my surprise the details say that the drivers are since 2006. I reinstalled the drivers and the same thing appeared. I checked the XML that was in archive of drivers and surprise... the drivers really are the 'old' of 2006. So my question is this: you have the display drivers for my model that work for Bioshock :D

  Best regards, Marian

  I Don t know if we. I think it would be took a long while to ask every single user: Hey, you have a few drivers for blackmodjo? Ah, come on, please. Some of them... ;)

  No, I have a better idea. It s like to cook a meal. Ingredients: DriverCleaner Pro and the www.laptopvideo2go.com site and... your your your TAAA patience

  To get a good 'bio' meal shocked just follow this recipe:

  Reach
  http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/
  read before doing anything (YES, even before you continue to BREATHE) the FAQ section on this site (RECOMMENDEDRECOMMENDEDRECOMMENDED)
  and then download the drivers. Do it, Yes...

  Then download drivercleaner by searching on www.google.com and THEN read their manual before doing anything else (Ok, you can continue to breathe..)
  After reading the manual you will be something like:

  1. program start, do something, restart the machine
  2. start in safe mode, from this program, deleting... yadayadayada
  3. install the new driver
  3. reading of Bioshock
  4...
  5. No... 6 thank. me and give me your first born... ;)

  So by cutting about 40% of my humorous things and following the constructive technical instructions from me, you will be able to play bioshock.

  Welcomes :)
