Satellite A200-130 - had black screen after BIOS updated

I have Satellite A200-130 I install a windows Vista OS with success and after that, I have saved all the driver I DOWNLOAD and put on a single folder... but then I accidentally open the configuration files of the BIOS that is "setup.exe" with the file "skae180a.rom".

BOS update starts automatically and I can't cancel it because my keyboard doesn't work simply do not. Then the update fails. I tried to restart my laptop using the touchpad and after reboot I just get BLACK SCREEN and HD led flash just once and my CD/DVD drive is displayed for 5 seconds and nothing happens.

Now my laptop remains the same... just 'black screen '.
Can someone help me on this matter? I really need this laptop to be repaired.

Hello

    Everything worked very well until the automatic update of Toshiba asked me to download and install the new BIOS update, I did. At the same session Windows and McAfee asked updated. I agreed to all. After all updates have been installed, turns off. The next day when I walk, I see only black screen. I also tried F2, F12 and drive recovery. Nothing happens!

    Any recommendation?

    Hey,.

    It seems that something was wrong during the update of the BIOS and so that you can t the computer unbootable. But I put t understand why you did the BIOS update. If everything works correctly, you can forget about this update. More if you do a BIOS update you shouldn't t run any other updates or programs that might affect the update of the BIOS.

    Anyway, in this case you can do nothing and you need professional help. Please contact an authorized service provider and guys can help you update the ROM module On the Web from Toshiba site, you can find a list of all the FSA:

  • Satellite C660D (PSC1YE) black screen after BIOS update

    I tried to update my Bios on my Satellite C660D portable (psc1YE) last week (big mistake).

    Something went wrong during the update and now when I power on I just get a black screen (LEDS and fan).

    After reviewing, the conclusion is that I damaged the BIOS that must now be blind flashed.
    So I got the hand on a 512MB memory stick, formatted using FAT through windows XP and used Wincris to create a startup disk after you have added the file bios.rom (renamed Bios.wph) which I extracted the last update of the BIOS on the Toshiba site.

    My memory stick has three visible files on it, Phlash16.exe, bios.wph and minidos.
    I plug laptop with battery, DVD player and power disconnected to stick, and hold Fn + B re-connection cable cable, turn it on.

    The fan whirs at full speed, and the USB lights up and flashes then for a minute, as if being read. No matter how long I let on, the fan will continue whirring and the USB is on and when I unplug and put in still works a black screen.

    I tried different sticks, (up to 4 GB with FAT32 format), programs of different startup (for example, the HP utility) drive but still no luck.

    Can someone tell me what I do wrong? I tried to look for a newer version of Phlash16 just in case that was the problem, but can not find one any where (mine is version 2008)

    All advice would be greatly appreciated even if it's just to tell me that I'm wasting my time because the pc is not repairable.

    I can't tell you if you waste your time or not because I n know if the motherboard ROM module is OK or not

    In most cases, it should be possible to reflash the ROM module using the BIOS crisis disk but this disc is available to authorized Toshiba service technicians and as much as I know reflash this methods is not always the same

    However, in some cases it might be possible that the mobo could not be fixed by disk crisis, it would be the worst case

    I recommend you to contact a certified maintainer Toshiba to check guys would be able to use the crisis disk and could test whether its possible to reflash the module ROM
    Is it not would be not possible well in this case you would need new motherboard :(
    But lets hope do ' t you need...

  • Re: Satellite L40 - black screen after BIOS update

    Hello world

    I have exactly the same problem, as shown here:

    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-euro...ThreadId=35156

    My laptop is a Satellite L40 - 150 (model PSL48E) it came with Vista and BIOS version 1.60

    I updated the BIOS to version 5.50, because I wanted to install Windows XP. The BIOS update process went well and the computer restarted automatically. After the reboot, I entered the BIOS (by pressing the F2 key). I pressed F9 to load the default settings and you exit the BIOS, saving the changes.

    Restarting the laptop and the screen is now completely empty. Nothing appears in it.

    I tried to remove and then reinsert the RAM modules, but it did not help.

    So, I guess the only option is to return the laptop to a service center?

    Why Toshiba do that? They are this deliberately or what?

    Kind regards.

    Hello

    I put t agree with Leolo and put I t too agree with you.
    The point is that there are tow updated BIOS for the L40.
    One for Win XP and one for Win Vista;
    But the two BONES work on with the two BIOS but some functions such as the FN buttons wouldn't work if you n t use good BIOS for the good OS.

    The BIOS on the Toshiba page is not defective. But of course, it is always possible that something will go wrong during the BIOS update procedure because the BISO update is always risky!

    One of my friends has updated the BIOS on this laptop and everything went well!

  • Satellite A200 (PSAFCA) does not work after BIOS update triying

    Hello

    I was hoping if someone could help me pls.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A200 (PSAFCA).
    Recently, I tried the bios update and while I flashed the bios I forgot to plug the laptop into the current and the battery was flat at half way through the flashing.

    Thus the laptop now won't post when I turn on and all I get is a white screen.
    I was wondering if someone could pls advise me on how I can get the old bios back or even a method of flashing it if I put the bios back in so I can at least get a message to display on the screen.

    Any help that you provide would be greatly appreciated as I am at a loss.

    Thanking you in advance

    > while I flashed the bios I forgot to plug the laptop into the current and the battery flat at half way through the flashing.

    Well buddy, the cell must always be connected to the mains during the execution of an update of the BIOS! This is very important!
    Now it looks like the update of BIOS didn't t run and finish correctly and the ROM module seems to be flashed incorrectly.

    Unfortunately, there is no other solution to communicate with ASP guys and ask for help! They should be able to help you.

    But note; in the worst cases, the ROM module is unfortunate and the motherboard needs to be replaced.

    Good luck

  • Yoga 2 Pro Black Screen after Bios Update

I followed the instructions on playing ran me the .exe, one click on next/ok until you restart the laptop and if I'm not mistaken a menu red with a progress bar appeared. At this time, I left and when I came back a few minutes later, the laptop is on, the lighting of the screen was on but the screen was black, the backlight of the keyboard was also turned on and everything else was off. Lights on/near the switch indicating if there turned on and connected to the AC are off.

    It was like that for more than 30 minutes now, no sign of progress. This happened to someone else before? I'm not very keen on must turn off or unplug the laptop while flashing the BIOS, but at this point there is not much else I can do.

  • Satellite A200: Some collapsed devices work after BIOS update

    I've recently updated my BIOS to V2.60 on my Sat A200
    but ever since I have apdated BIOS some hardware components stoped working.
    So I decided to use the product recovery CD but it no longer works.

    Whenever during the loading phase of the system breaks down and I get a blue screen mentioning a file called CLFS. SYS in the root of the problem

    Is there a solution to my problem?

    Hello

    What Sat A200-xxx you have exactly?
    In my experience, there are different versions of BIOS for different operating system.
    The Vista and XP needs the different BIOS!

    But I wonder why the Toshiba Recovery disk not working anymore?  :|
    Usually, you should be able to not recover the system no matte what BIOS was installed.

    Have you tried to format the HARD drive first using another disc for example like Win XP?
    Check it!

    I think you need to format the HARD drive again and then should try to recover the laptop using the recovery disk

  • Re: Satellite L675-10 t black screen after disassembly problem

    Hi all

    I recently had some problems with my L675-10T overheating, even when I was with a big fan of cooling for the games.

    I realized that the problem resulted from blocked exhaust and dust and it is why, after reading and watching the many tutorials, I opened my laptop computer successfully and all cleaned up.

    The temperature dropped to 20 c and I was happy.

    The next night, however, took my laptop and headed for the living room, and it will stop.
    Black screen and nothing passed. So I ran to the internet and found this solution, it worked btw.

    1. turn off your computer
    2. unplug all wires (including energy)
    3. disconnect the battery from the bottom of the computer.
    4 re - connect the power cable. (the battery should not be in the computer)
    5. turn power on. The screen works. Choose start windows normally. (if you get this screen)

    The thing is, the same thing happened to me this morning as well.
    Twice in 2 days and im a little worried I did something wrong during Assembly of the laptop or something. Any ideas? Or do I keep accountant with the above solution?
    Looks like a mess of power upwards of sorts.

    Thank you in advance.

    Hello

    I assume that this question has not happened before you have disassembled the laptop. Right?
    To be honest this similar issue happened to me to. The portable light not (black screen) after I'm entered in the mode 'sleep'. However, this happened only once

    It s hard to tell why this happened to you it of not impossible that you have damaged something for disassembled the procedure.

    However, the fact is that the warranty is not valid more because you opened the laptop. That is why any approach (especially parts replacement) to solve this problem would cost money.
    So ultimately it s your decision: a technician visit to downtown to see the pieces of equipment or keep your stay with the workaround mentioned above.
