Satellite A-L50-1CU PSKK6E - impossible to update BIOS

Recently bought a Satellite L50-A-1CU. tried to update the BIOS with the version downloaded from the Toshiba site BIOS_V190_WIN.

What happens is that I get a small windows saying "C:\". » ???
Seven polling points are part of the message. By pressing the OK button on the closed window and nothing else happens. Tried to download it again several times, but with the same results...

The laptop has been preloaded with Win 8.1 System.

Have you changed anything in the configuration of the system?
Did you remove any Toshiba Software in the past?

Please check twice if the driver of Toshiba (to Win 8.1) system has been installed correctly!

If you have changed the system that is to say to Win 7, be sure to what Toshiba has added economic package for WIn 7 is installed!

It is very important, because both applications from Toshiba are essential to perform the update of the BIOS Toshiba

  • Satellite Pro L670-18F - pilots missing after updating BIOS

    I have a Satellite Pro L670-18F and I recently updated the BIOS to version 1.5, recommended by the site, but now my internet speed is VERY slow and I have some devices in the Device Manager without drivers related to the bios (from Googling) and so I realized that the bios has been a problem.

    Does anyone know this laptop came with to downgrade the BIOS version? Also, if I reinstall windows will I receive a new bios version or will it would not affected?

    Hey,.

    Did you download and install the correct version of the BIOS of your laptop? Satellite Pro L670-18F belongs to the series of PSK3FE AFAIK, so have you chosen BIOS for this series of model?

    In addition I recommend you load the default settings in the BIOS. Just press F9 key if you are in the BIOS Setup.

    If you reinstall Windows, the BIOS will not be affected. BIOS and Windows are different, you will always have the latest version of the even you change your operating system.

  • Satellite L50: Win8.1 disabled after updating BIOS

    Hello

    I ve upgraded my BIOS of L50 Satellite to the latest version. Then windows disabled and can not enter the product manually key. Can't do the phone activation too.

    When I click on activate Windows, it just goes to the start screen. I ve tried to restore the system and it's the same thing. Any advice?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello Sergio
    I don't know what L50 do you have exactly, but if your laptop comes with preinstalled OS, I recommend you to reinstall the OS using HARD drive recovery option and check this once more.

    Can you please send your L50 exact model number?

  • Satellite A-L50-1CU-cpu/gpu issues

    Hello everyone,

    On my Satellite I have frequently igdkmd64.sys BSOD (Display driver stopped responding and has corrected). I know that the message, designated drivers intel, so at first I thought that I had to update them, but the rest of the problem.

    Now, after a few months, I got notice that the problem appears only when my laptop is plugged ac.
    When I am running on battery everything works fine.
    The difference between the power and the battery is the mode of intel, in fact if I change the bios setting 'Frequency CPU' dynamic 'Dynamic' to 'Always low' I can run my laptop on the current without any problem.

    I found a similar problem on some old toshiba laptops (https://forum.toshiba.eu/showthread...starts-anytime). In their case, it was a problem with the hardware with the NEC/CATHERINE capacitor.

    So ultimately, I would like to know how to solve my problem cause I want to use all my 3.4 GHz processor.

    Thanks (sorry for my bad English)

    Hello

    I wonder what graphics driver Intel did you use for the update?
    Have you tried the driver posted on the Intel website?

    The processor supports the Intel HD Graphics 4600 and you can get the latest driver 15.36.21.64.4222 of page Intel
    https://Downloadcenter.Intel.com/Dow...7-8-8-1-64-bit

    Here, you choose the win64_153621.zip (ZIP package)
    This allows you to install the driver for the device would allow Manager using the "Advanced" installation procedure You will need the driver folder "unpacked" and the system would automatically take the drivers

  • Satellite A-L50-1CU-BT cannot find other BT devices

    Hello

    Today, after months, it was the first time I tried to use bt to transfer files to a mobile phone: bt is active on the l50 and two different mobile phones (android and they are visible and can connect and transfer files an eachother).
    But the L50 is discovery of devices in a loop "without end", without knowing the phones... and the phones are not the L50.

    Filter packets Atheros bt is the last (and only) of toshiba.
    Any idea?

    Thank you
    Marco

    Are you sure that BT has been activated correctly?
    Please check in:
    Charm bar (win key + c) parameters change pc settings pc and devices Bluetooth BT/OFF switch

    Before you do activate the option of BT in the settings of your device (smartphone).
    Note: the use of Android smartphone, you must check the option that makes the smartphone visible to other devices.

    In which case it won't work, I recommend to uninstall the Atheros BT filter driver package, then restart the system and install this package once more.
    Please ensure that raw mode isn't enabled!

  • Satellite A500 - 1 G 0 - impossible to update the monitor driver

    I installed http://support1.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/display-20100608161152.zip standard nvidia driver, but shows me device PnP standar with standard microsoft drivers and a frequency of 60 Hz
    Win 7 home.

    I think there should be print drivers and 75 hz frequency on screen

    Post edited by: Lias

    I think you think wrong. :)
    Why do you think that is 75 Hz for display?

    I have two laptops new and two of them have 60 MHz displays. Please note the two of them are installed with the original Toshiba recovery image so I can say, display driver 100% right.

    LCDs are standard parameters 60 MHz and it cannot be changed.

    I put t know what is for you the standard driver, but it turns out that your laptop is supported for Win7 64-bit only and right nvidia display driver you can find HERE.

    If I'm right, you try to use the same driver. This means that the driver installation was not completed successfully.
    What is the entry in Device Manager?

    By the way: why you need to install this driver again?

    BTW, in the standard memory configuration, can I free memory locations? Or I need to remove the standard memory, substituting it with 2x8GB?

    I don't have this model of laptop, but if it has video HDMI port means that your laptop can offer excellent output video in HD quality.
    In my opinion, you should speak with your local dealer and explain the situation so I hope it can help you choose the best monitor for you. I can also imagine you can take your laptop with you and test it before you buy it.

    According to specification for portable computer, your computer can be upgraded up to 32 GB (4 memory locations).
    To upgrade RAM, you can use the memory modules to follow:
    2GB DDR3L - 1600 - PA5104U-1M2G
    4 GB DDR3L-1600-PA5104U-1M4G
    8 GB DDR3L-1600-PA5104U-1M8G

  • Satellite A-L50-1CU - no separate for the headset and speaker volume sliders

    Why there is no possibility to control the volume of the headphones separately? I risk my ears (seriously) every time I use headphones, due to the low efficiency of the speakers...

    Any suggestion?

    To be honest I do not understand your problem. You can control the volume level using the F9 and F10 keys or Windows volume mixer.

    Reduce the volume level before you connect headphones and speakers and I hope that there will be no risk to your ears. ;)

  • Satellite Pro C850 Wi - Fi lost after updating BIOS

    Will you please help if you can because it's ridiculous for Toshiba released a update that actually loses some of the functions to portable computers, especially the main function of a laptop that is portability.

    Thanks in advance
