Satellite A100-PSAAN: can I update the Bios of PSAA8 model?

Can I put the Bios of A100-PSAA8 on a model A100-PSAAN?
REASON
I get the message that there is error of TPM secure entering (missing or disabled), hollow, I have this TPM in the Security section of the Bios, but I can't change.

Please ADVICE

NO, you can t!

The bad BIOS or bad BIOS update procedure can damage the motherboard.

I read you first thread and it seems like you get the TPM message because you downgraded the OS from Vista to XP!

  • Satellite L500-1XC - error while updating the BIOS

    Hi, just download the most recent update BIOS but there is an error everytime I try to update to come... "uefi bios winflash over 210 ac of 10% battery attached"

    Connected AC and battery not charging but tried to leave and remove too. Current bios 1.60
    I tried to find a BIOS flash utility but no permits. BIOS default loaded and tried in safe mode too.

    Any suggestions?

    Hello

    I think that's the problem because the battery is not completely charged so you can't update the BIOS. Can you charge the battery when the laptop is turned off? I mean you can see the battery LED and if the battery is charged it changes the color of the orange in white or green (it s mentioned in the user manual). Can you confirm this?

    On the other side, it would be interesting to know why the BIOS update is important to you. Problems with the computer? If it is not updated the BIOS isn't important, you can forget it. Never touch a running system ;)

  • Satellite Pro 6000 - how can I update the BIOS?

    Hi all

    I have the problem that my laptop does not start 9 of 10 times with the message: * block 1 BIOS is damaged, call your service man.

    I want to update BIOS but for the Satellite Pro 6000 I can only find an update the BIOS from Windows. But my laptop does not start! Rarely the machine starts, but when I try to update the BIOS, I get the message that I already have the latest version of the BIOS

    My questions:
    * Is there a BIOS update file that is a BIOS floppy? (for example the Satellite Pro 6100 has 2 BIOS files, 1 Windows and 1 making a floppy disk)
    * Is it possible to update the BIOS with the same version of Windows?

    Or perhaps there is another solution for this problem? Has no need to update my BIOS?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I agree with Luke.
    The rom Bios module seems to be damage.
    Either it must be replaced or flashed again.

    But you won't be able to do that! The update of the Bios on the Toshiba page focuses on winning and you will not be able to update if the windows are not running.

    You last chance is an ASP that could check the BIOS ROM.
    As I said, most high, maybe new reflash module Rom help but cela can be answered simply by an ASP technician who checked this.

  • Satellite L40 - 14 d: can't update the BIOS

    Hello

    I have laptop Satellite L40 - 14 d.
    Two months ago, I Flash my BIOS to version 5.40 successfully. But now, if I run updatebios.bat (5.50), the system will reboot, but after 1 second laptop each stop. We did update the BIOS. I tried many version of BIOS for my laptop, but without success.

    I have Windows XP installed.
    PS: sorry for my bad English, I'm from the Czech Republic.
    Thanks for any response.

    Hello

    First of all I ve an interesting question;
    Why do you want to update the BIOS? Various problems with the laptop?
    Usually if the laptop run without problem then a BIOS update is not necessary

    However, I downloaded the BIOS and first firs winflash.exe file package, I noticed!

    First you must uncompress the BIOS correctly.
    Then prepare the laptop for the update (AC adapter connected, don t run 3rd party applications and disconnect all external devices).
    Finally, you must run the winflash.exe to start the update of the BIOS and NOT the .bat file!

    Good bye

  • Satellite A100 does not start after the BIOS update

    Hello

    I downloaded the update to the bios toshiba A100 PSAA8 on the toshiba site and applied using the procedure of updating the bios from windows XP MSE. Restart after the start of the update stopped at the toshiba start screen.

    At startup the screen by pressing ESC watch text mode. The message indicated it confirms the update of the bios version. POST messages are:

    _________________________
    Genuine Intel CPU
    No TPM or TPM has problem
    1015 M system RAM passed

    Press to enter in SETUP
    _________________________

    Pressing F2 just clears the last message in line and then no change is found.

    The laptop comes with windows XP media center edition. I don't know why the TPM secure is enabled. It is possible that toshiba is available with the module of TPM enabled in bios updates that logbook. If this is the case, they must clearly identified as 'not applicable' upgrade for machines that are not relevant.

    I found similar messages around the forum without convincing answer.

    Is it possible to fix this without sending? Even if it turns out to be affordable, it make much sense to pay for the problems caused by toshiba.

    Hello

    Please don t blame someone for you mistakes ;)
    As far as I know that only a few sets of laptops come with TPM.
    If you want to do an update of the BIOS on the models at TPM, you will need to contact the ASP!

    Looks like you used a bad BIOS or bad BIOS update procedure.

    The Toshiba page a BISO update the documentation that describes how to upgrade the BIOS on each series laptop!
    You will find on the page of the Toshiba driver compatible BIOS and information over a large number of details!

    > Is it possible to fix this without sending
    Don t think so, and therefore, you will need to contact the Asp help!

    Good luck

  • Satellite A100-756: no option in the BIOS to change the CPU usage

    Hi guys,.

    recently bought a satellite A100-756 laptop with core duo of intel clocked at 1.86 Ghz. When you look in the BIOS (version 2.00) the only options allotted to me is to dynamically the CPU frequency mode are 'always low, or dynamically switchable. There is no option to set the processor to operate at "still high". my friend who has a 2 years old satellite said that, on its model, there is the possibility to "still high".

    Toshiba HWSetup also lists only the mode options for dynamic as either «always low or dynamically switchable» cpu frequency I was wondering if anyone has done to put the option to always high, or if there is an update the Bios or software Toshiba that would allow this option for 'high alyways?

    Congratulations for all help people!

    Hello

    As you may knew that the Toshiba Power Saver tool is preinstalled on most Toshiba laptops.
    This tool allows to change the CPU, the speed of processing, cooling method, using standby and hibernation, etc.

    To change the speed of the CPU or the cooling method, you will need to enter the energy saver, then select the basic settings tab.

    PS: All these settings can be configured for a different power profiles. Therefore, you must configure the settings of the profile that you will use for most of the time.

  • Satellite Pro A120: Need to update the BIOS after upgrade CPU

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A120 and I need to update the bios of a change in cpu cause.
    The laptop works very well, but for some reason any with the new processor fan runs always full.

    A lot, I searched but found nothing.
    The model number is PSAC1E-0QL04CG3 of ideas where I can find the bios?

    THX in advance,
    John

    Hello

    First of all: update BIOS doesn t help you.
    Why do you think that BIOS update should help reduce the activity of fan?

    I guess that your new processor is faster. Right?
    So it offers more performance and this leads to higher heat dissipation... so finally the CPU must be cooled and this can be done only if the cooling module would turn faster you agree with me?

    By the way: the update of the BIOS is on the page of the Toshiba UE driver. Since the satellite Pro A120 is very old series, you will need to search for drivers in area Archive (Type of product-> Archive)

  • Satellite A100-386 - how to upgrade the BIOS?

    Hello

    I wanted just to update my old Satellite A100-386 with 4 GB of RAM (2x2gb Crucial) instead of 1 GB, as I am now running Windows7 Pro 64 bit instead of the original XP 32.

    I read that I had to upgrade the BIOS as mine is v2.00. So, I downloaded the last of them.
    It seems to be an automatic upgrade of BIOS (S10V600.exe) as mentioned on the site Web of Toshiba.
    But when hit the .exe, I have a box of error message saying:
    "LOADPEDRV. "EXE: could not start the service.

    My question is: do I have to be 32-bit OS to run the upgrade of the automatic BIOS or is it possible to Flash the BIOS with a Windows7 64 bit OS run?

    Thanks a lot for all answer as I found no 'how to' in search on this forum.

    Best regards
    François

    Hi FPSim,

    Who said that you need to update the BIOS to upgrade RAM? The maximum RAM capacity depends on the motherboard and chipset and not BIOS.

    Official website of Toshiba, I have seen that the model supports 4 GB of RAM so the BIOS update is not necessary. Increase the RAM and everything is ok.

  • Equium A110-276: can I update the BIOS when installing Vista?

    I don't know where to post this...

    "I have a clean install of Windows Vista on my satellite A110-276. I have to update the BIOS or not? Is - mandatory/mandatory BIOS update?

    Hello

    It seems that Toshiba has released a special version of the BIOS for Windows Vista.
    If you want you can check it on the page of the Toshiba driver.

    But if your Vista runs correctly on the computer laptop with the previous version of BIOS you n don't need to update the BIOS.
    I recommend updating BIOS, if any odd operational behavior will appear.

  • Split 13 x 2 can't update the bios

    I have a new split of HP 13 X 2 computer laptop / tablet. I have upgraded to Windows 8.1. Tried to update the system BIOS but it fails. I have Kaspersky Anti-virus turn off when you run the update and my account is Administrator status. Evry time I try and update the bios, I get an error "failure" and said copy update has failed. What should I do to fix this?

    Just flashed manually with a USB key. Appears the utility tries to copy the update to the bios on hp/efi/bios on partition 2, but I can't find how to go from Windows, even with hidden folders to display. The update tool the wish was easier and you can specify where you put the update from version 'dumbed down too low to be useful.

    Steps to Flash manually:

    1 use the bios tool to copy the files to a recovery USB drive. It will create a Hewlett-Packard folder. In BIOS and the BIOS update, but the update f19 falls within the bios/current.

    2. with your PSU AC plugged, reboot the computer. Once the screen goes black, start hitting ESC.

    3. even if it seems you can arrow down and press ENTER to select F2, press the F2 key... without the function key.

    4. Insert the USB key, select the firmware, bios update, select the usb drive and navigate to the folder of the bios/current.

    5. you will be asked if you want to update the current bios of 16 to 19. Click bios update (forget what it actually says) and sit down and let it do its thing.

    6. restart. If you have enabled as I do of bitlocker, now you must pick up the keys. After that is done, then you have a F19 X 2.

    Have not used enough to see if 19 solves this problem of the touchpad, but refuse to do workaround above.

  • Satellite A60-106: Question about updating the BIOS and the BIOS Flash

    Fact the BIOS Flash update the BIOS or that requires a different file. I've updated a Satellite A60 BIOS to 1.9 but am not sure if cela flashed the BIOS as well.

    If this isn't the case, where I could get a file to Flash BIOS for satellite A60-106?

    Hello

    Sorry, but you question is a bit confusing.
    The update of the BIOS flashing the ROM module I put t know which version is installed before upgrading the BIOS, but if after the upgrade, a new version of the BIOS appears then the procedure was a success.

    The good BIOS and how to upgrade the BIOS information you will find on the page of Toshiba.

  • Satellite L310 - I can not enter the Bios settings

  • Can I update the bios with software for windows vista?

    I have a HP Pavilion a1747c desktop computer and I need to update BIOS for virtualization technology. However the update the BIOS only supports Windows Vista, and I have Windows 7. Can I still updated it somehow?

    Yes, you may be able to extract the actual BIOS file of the installation package compressed and use a flash routine appropriate for flashing BIOS under another operating system, but you do so at your own risk. Any damage to your computer by using this process is at your own risk and you take responsibility for it.

  • How can I update the BIOS without using a CD?

    Hello!

    I recently decided to update my RAM from 2 GB to 4 GB. After installation, I started my computer to find that it would not recognize the new memory. After doing some troubleshooting, I decided to try to update the BIOS, like the 2010 version. I have downloaded the update to the BIOS boot CD implementation of lenovo, burned a disk and restarts, I found that the boot order has no CD contained thereon. Here's the catch: I do not have the supervisor password. It is a mobile phone in hand, and I tried to find the password nothing is done. It's the current boot order: USB key, hard drive.

    My question is, can I create a BIOS update disk using a USB key, or update the BIOS of another way?

    I understand that it is impossible to recover the supervisor password without having served (that I prefer to not do, even if I have to return my Crucial RAM)

    My system features:

    ThinkPad L512

    BIOS version: 1.04

    BIOS date: 2010-3-26

    Controller of Embeded Version: 1.01

    Windows 7 32 bit

    Thanks for your help.

    Welcome to the forum!

    Two things here:

    (a) If you run the system update, it should offer the latest BIOS for your machine as well. I never did on a protected device, so it may or may not work, but perhaps worth it.

    (b) I doubt the ability of the system to recognize the new RAM has something to do with the BIOS. Much older than your ThinkPads will take place 4-8 GB of RAM with an old BIOS, older than your machine initially.

    Good luck.
