Re: How to run the update to the BIOS of the DOS - Satellite A100 PSAA8A command prompt?

I'm having some trouble with my GF Satellite A100 (PSAA8A). When installing a new HARD drive with a clean install of XP, I flashed by chance, one of the BIOS when installing drivers. Its kind of bricks now.

Using a floppy disk CD boot, combined with the update of the V6.00 BIOS, I goes to a DOS command prompt, but not sure where to go now.

Under * Tradional BIOS update *.
See the link: [http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/faq.jsp?z=234&service=EU&from=faq_selection&CFID=B IOS & FID = TRO0000000b07]

It is said:
+ 1. Extract the zip file containing the BIOS upgrade to a temporary folder. +
+ 2. Three subfolders will be generated in the temporary folder. "docs", "update - 3.5' disc', 'Update - CD - R or CD - RW +.
+ 3. Insert a 1.44 MB diskette formatted in the floppy disk drive. +
+ 4. Run the *.exe file in the folder "" Update - 3.5 disk ". Follow the instructions on the screen. A BIOS update diskette will be generated. +

But there is no 3 folder. There is only a single called S10VWF that contains Winphlash etc. (see photo url). As far as I know, I can only run Winphlash Windows environment due to its GUI. Then what should I do? Help!

Hi Brett

There is a little thing that you have forgotten or supervised.

The BIOS you downloaded is a version of BIOS to WIN. It s not traditional BIOS update!

The description published in your ad describes the update using the traditional BIOS.
But the Toshiba driver page only provides updates of BIOS based VICTORY. The BIOS can be upgraded only from Windows operating system running.

Please don't mix these two possibilities of updates!

  • Satellite A100 PSAA8E: Cannot boot from USB after Bios Update

    Hello

    I downloaded the latest bios (v6) for my satellite a100 (psaa8e) and after the update of the old bios, I noticed that I can not boot from USB. Is there a way to restore the old bios or will this problem solved?

    See you soon

    And before you can update the BIOS you were able to start the bootable CD from the external optical drive USB drive facilities?

    To be honest I really don't believe it. Try to connect USB FDD and you will see that the FDD is recognized and you will be able to use it as first boot device.

  • Lean how to run the stop code when the highest level VI ends

    Hi people.

    I am a newbie of LV with 30 years of experience in embedded SW engineering.  I searched for how to run the stop code when a VI of highest level ends.  I found many examples, but they are horribly complicated.  A little birdie told me that such a model of simple design should not be so compilicated.

    My application is an application of high tension control to disable all HV checkpoints when the SW ends.  My VI code is running in a while loop with a stop button that leads out of the loop.  I can easily accomplish my requirement by programming with a sequence of plate that runs after the end of the main loop.  The technique of flat sequence does not work when the user clicks the Cancel button in the toolbar of façade, more than that market when the user clicks the close button of the application (X button) when you run the exe application.

    Can someone tell me please a simple technique, the code example that can show me a lean and elegant way to accomplish my task?  It doesn't have to be an obvious solution (for example a stop induced watchdog seems simple enough).

    Thank you - John Speth

  • How to run the Extendscript .bat file?

    I have a file with some instructions .bat and I want that it runs from Extendscript.

    How to run the Extendscript .bat file?

    I tried execute(); order and it seems that .bat ran but no result, but when I double click on the .bat file all worksout very well.

    How used runtime.exec () extend the script?

    Can I communicate with Java JDK thru ExtendScript and run commands such as runtime.exec ()?

    can someone please?

    You can do it like this:

    var batFile = new File("C:\\path\\to\\my\\batfile.bat");
    batFile.execute();
    

    Note that this will only work if your system is configured in such a way that by double-clicking the .bat file runs it in reality.

    You can also use

    system.callSystem()
    

    but note that this is only available in AE.

    or modify the JavaScript code for:

    Hello Nri,

    What value does P18_SCHOOL_ID?
    If you look at the State of Session (toolbar) developer. If that does not have a value, it's your problem.

    You can create a calculation before the process that gives the correct value. (In one case more often, you have a report and when you click on the link change that id is activated and you see the recording in your form)

  • Satellite A100 PSAA8: How to order the Toshiba XP-> Vista upgrade CD

    Hello

    I just bought a Satellite A100 (psaa8)
    I found that a document indicates that I can move on to Vista and a link but it does not work.

    So can you please help me with this, I got bored of XP.

    I read that some members ordered a free vista CD.
    Can you tell me how to order and it is good or bad?

    Hello

    Remember that this offer is limited by the date! I think you're too late dude!
    But why you're bored? The XP is the OS really friendly and fully compatible with all 3rd party devices!
    Vista needs a lot more use as XP and runs slower than XP. If you want to play games on your laptop, I would recommend staying with XP! All games run faster under OS XP!

    You know the Vista Customization Pack? This allows you to use XP but it looks like a Vista.
    You know, the whole images, icons, etc. will transform the look of Vista.

    It s nice and for people who wants to change the old XP style new style Vista ;)
