Re boot in the BIOS updated

I have a thinkpad edge type: 03017gv SN: LRFCW2. Yesterday I was updating the BIOS and the machine hung up for 4 hours during the update of the bios. Finally I turned it off.

Now, I can't start the machine.

Nothing happens when I turn on the machine! No flicker of movement or record screen. Is there a way to turn it?

Neil has soon

You brick machine, you will need to send it for warranty repair and get a new motherboard fitted.

  • Satellite P200 - after the BIOS update I can't start the machine

    After the BIOS update I can't boot the laptop because the system doesn't recognize the relecommunicarions password.

    Before updating the password is 0000.
    After when I try to set the password incorrect password start apeeras

    The BIOS password can only be removed from an authorized service provider. So I think that there is no other way.

I am now no longer able to boot up the laptop at all, all I get is the power light on and the hard disk light flashes, I hear the spinning CD/DVD drive, but what is not screen anything, I don't think this is the start.

    Is there a way to fix this without taking it to a store/engineer, BIOS recovery?

    The laptop is a Satellite L350, I opened the laptop to try to reset the CMOS by removing the card mother battery (not sure if it would have helped), but as much as I know it doesn't have an or I'm not.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Hi Andy,.

    Hmm... If the BIOS update failed, you can't do anything because only an authorized service provider has professional diagnostic and recovery tools to redo an update.

    So in my opinion, you must contact a service provider authorized in your country. Get in touch with the guy and ask for help. They will tell you what to do now.

    Here is their list:

  • Explanations requested before the BIOS update

    -Portable is in stand-alone mode.
    -Laptop is plugged into the mains.
    -Laptop computer must be in boot mode and not recovery mode.
    -Remove all PC cards. »

    Can someone explain to me the meaning of phrases "laptop is in autonomous mode" and "the laptop is plugged in" because I do not understand?

    I don't speak English very well so use very simple words, please.

    Hello

    It's very simple.

    Regarding-> "laptop is in stand-alone mode.
    Some series of laptop computer can be connected to the docking station.
    If you want to update the BIOS on this laptop please make sure that the laptop is not connected to the docking station in the BIOS update process!

    Regards-> phone is plugged into the mains
    The laptop can run either with the power of the battery or can be plugged into the mains (AC adapter).
    During the BIOS update process the notebook must be connected to the power adapter and do NOT use the battery!

    Hope I could clear some misunderstandings.

    Hello

    Hmmm what to say. Sounds not good and in my opinion, looks like you have successfully updated the laptop computer with a bad BIOS or something went wrong during the BIOS update process
    Are you sure you used the right BIOS of 110%?

    It seems that you will not be able to fix this problem yourself, without any additional help from the laptop technician.
    In most cases, the BIOS has to be flashed again on the particular way

    For me it s clear, you will need to contact the ASP to get rid of this problem

    Best regards and good luck

  • 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.

  • Satellite L450D - nothing else happens after the BIOS update

    Hey,.

    It of strange that the BIOS update gone wrong, because I already did several times and never had a problem did you run background applications they probably blocked the update?

    Anyway, what you can try is to remove the battery and the AC adapter / CC for a few hours. Then reconnect and try to boot up your laptop.

    In the worst cases the ROM module needs to be reflashed, but an authorized service provider can help you get rid of this problem. :)

  • ZV5000 - want to get the BIOS update but do not have Windows

    Hello

    just got my trusty zv5000 AMD out of the closet and intend to play with Linux on it.  At the moment there no bone because the HD has not, although I noticed that the BIOS is a former F.21 and would get to you last F.35.    Unfortunately, it seems that I can only do the update of the BIOS if I am running Windows.

    Wondering if there is a bootable ISO or floppy image available that I can use to do the update.  I prefer not to have to locate a copy of Windows, install on a new HD just to update the BIOS.

    Thanks for any help on this

    • Copy the executable update BIOS for USB
    • Connect a portable flash drive
    • Power laptop and Windows 7 install cd boot
    • go into the Windows Recovery Tools command prompt
    • change directory to the USB player
    • Run the executable file
    • Utility to update the BIOS works well

  • Satellite L300-1 has 3 - after the BIOS update, I get a BSOD

    I have a Satellite L300 1A 3 MODEL PSLB8E. I decided to update the version of the BIOS, thinking that he can resolve my issue of ethernet controller.

    But after the update, my laptop goes on infinite blue screen of death. How can I recover from this injury?

    Can someone please help.

    Hello

    Did you choose the good BIOS update for your model? Was it for Satellite L300 PSLB8E?

    What code you get BSOD?

    After the BIOS update you must always load the default settings. Maybe a bad BIOS setting is causing this BSOD.

  • Can't do the BIOS update for Portégé R500 (PPR50E)

    I have a Portege R500 PPR50E with Vista Business pre-installed model. I am wanting to move to Windows 7 and so initially I want to update the BIOS of 1.5 to 1.6. I got the correct file from Toshiba (bios-20080325071859 containing P0058v160.exe), but when I try to run the application, it fails with "this computer is not supported.
    I checked several times that I downloaded the file for the R500.

    Can anyone help?

    Hello

    That s strange.
    Did you change something on you installed Vista?

    In different cases, the BIOS cannot be updated because some essential tools such as the common modules for Win XP has not been installed.
    If you are using vista you don't need common modules but I recommend reinstalling the VAP.
    Then you should try to rerun the update of the BIOS.

    Otherwise use the recovery disk and computer laptop back to factory settings.
    After the laptop has been set to the same State as on the first day of purchase, you can run the BIOS update.

  • Tecra A11 - 11N - after that the BIOS update programs not loading now

    My model is Tecra A11 - 11N. I ran the BIOS update and now some of my programs, including ITunes, Nokia Ovisuite, payer VLC etc. are not running. I tried to uninstall and reinstall them, but same problems.

    In any case to come back before upgrade?

    Hi evangny,

    I also Tecra A11 in front of me and have installed latest version of BIOS but this didn't affect all installed programs. BIOS and installed programs are different.
    What you can do is load the default settings in the BIOS after the update.

    Can you be a bit more detailed?
    What exactly happens if you try to start these programs? You get an error message?

    You use the version preinstalled Windows from Toshiba?
