Satellite A200-1DN - the update of the BIOS for Windows 7

I am running 32-bit Windows 7 on a Satellite A200 1DN. I had battery problems (plugged in, does not support) and I understand that I have to update my BIOS. However I can't find an update of the BIOS for Windows 7, only Vista and XP.

Can anyone help? I should update with the BIOS in Vista? Are there other options to fix this battery? I already tried an ATX reset and uninstall method battery Microsoft ACPI compatible controls.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thank you
Ian

Theoretically, you can install Windows Vista to update Bios and return Win 7, then. Before you do, try this:

Unplug the computer from the power adapter and turn it on. Let the computer battery power until the computer turns off
Remove the battery. Using a soft cloth, wipe the battery packs connectors and AC adapters.
Reinsert the battery and plug it into the power adapter

also, have you had the same problem before installing Win 7?

  • Satellite A110 - update the BIOS for Windows 7?

    Hello. I found two drivers support page to your versions of BIOS for my Toshiba Satellite A110:
    01/21/09
    Update the BIOS
    Toshiba Windows Vista 32 bit 5, 40 - WIN World Wide
    01/21/09
    Update the BIOS
    Toshiba OS independent 2, 00 - WIN World Wide

    In 'other info' page on first bios there is a warning that this version is only for windows vista, and on the second page 'other info' he warns, that this version is not compatible for notebook computers equipped with Windows Vista.
    My first question is what this means? If I have OS Toshiba idependent 2.0 BIOS will not install Vista?

    My second and more important question is what version of bios should I install if I now use WINDOWS 7 32 bit?

    Hello

    > My first question is what this means? If I have OS Toshiba idependent 2.0 BIOS will not install Vista?
    You should be able to install Vista using BISO 2.0 but maybe your laptop will generate some questions
    So you need to update the BIOS to 5, 40 - WIN version if you want to use Vista OS.

    If you want to use Win 7 on your laptop then you must first install the Win 7 OS and then you should check out how Windows 7 is running

  • Satellite A110-180 - update of the Bios for Windows 7 and Linux

    Hello

    I want to change the following settings in my bios on my laptop satellite A110-180
    * AHCI for SATA
    Disable the IDE

    But none of these options.
    So I thought that maybe I should update my bios.
    I found the download page, but there are 2 options: Windows Vista or NO vista, but I want to dual boot windows 7 and linux.

    Which one should I download, or is there another option to change the settings?

    Thank you!
    Bart

    Hello

    Satellite A110 does not support these options (SATA AHCI).
    The update of the BIOS will not help you!

    Linux is not supported and therefore, you will not find any special BIOS for Linux OS!

    The two BIOS updates are for Win Vista or OS independent.
    Therefore, if you use other than Vista OS then you should throw the update of the independent BIOS to the BONE!

    But as mentioned above; both options will not appear after the BIOS update!

    There is no need to be rude!

    There is no driver HP Win10 for your PC as well, when you did the update that you were MS drivers - that offer only basic features.

    You do not Win10 BIOS update because HP does not certify your PC for Win10 and, therefore, has not produced any BIOS Win10 updated.

    HP has released no timetable for when, or if, they perform BIOS updates for older machines.

  • Satellite P30: When the drivers for Windows Vista will be available

    Hello

    I have a Satellite P30, who is quite capable of supporting Windows Vista and I installed it. Now, my problem is that I keep having problems with my graphics card, and Toshiba has not yet published any drivers.

    When should I expect any solution for my problem?

    Thanks for your time,
    Nuno Ramiro

    Hello

    I am afraid I have some bad news for you.
    I found this link which was published a long time here in the forum.

    It seems that it is an official list of the models of Toshiba laptops that support Microsoft Windows Vista drivers:
    http://support.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB7201SK002HR01.htm

    It seems that your laptop is not listed there. It seems therefore that the Vista drivers are not available for the P30 :(

    Try to google for the graphics drivers for Vista. Maybe you'll find something on omegadrivers.net or driverheaven.net

    Good luck

    Sounds like you don t know this BIOS, it's exactly the BIOS has nothing to do with the software or the operating system that you are installing.

  • Don't play age of Empires 3 on the Satellite A200-1DN

    Hello
    I have a Satellite A200-1dn with 1.5 GB of ram and an intel gma 950 / 945gm express chipset family.
    The problem is that the age of empires 3 requires a minimum of 64 MB of video ram. Mine is 32 MB.
    I've heard from the dvmt (dynamic video memory technology) and I was wondering is anyone know how to change it to the max?
    I heard that you can change CMOS, anyone know how to acess cmos? My bios version is 1.30. max dvmt may go up to 224 MB of video ram, that would be great.

    Please answer soon, thx

    Hello

    Generally, a user must read the MANUAL before asking these questions. But while you already here I can tell you how to access:

    Press F2 right after the power of the machine (when you see the toshiba logo) whereas there should be the option you want / need.

    Did you already check if you have the latest version of the bios installed? It would be a good idea to do so:

  • Is it possible to update the BIOS for the Satellite A110 (PSAB0) and Windows7?

    Hi all

    I recently installed Windows 7 on Toshiba Satellite A110 (PSAB0).
    The version of the system BIOS is v1.30
    I want to Flash the BIOS for you last version v2.0.
    This version is released in January 2009, before the introduction of Windows 7.

    There are two versions of the BIOS download, one "for Vista only' and one 'OS independent.
    I think I have to go to the operating system independent.
    Link: [update BIOS | http://www.toshiba.nl/innovation/download_driver_details.jsp?service=EN&selCategory = 8 & selFamily = 192 & selSeries = 236 & selProduct = 661 & STAS hortMod = 478 & language = 1 = 12 & selOS & selType = 4 & yearupload = & monthupload = & dayupload = & we eDate = null & mode = allMachines & search = & action = search & macId = & country = 24 & selectedLanguage = 12 & type = 4 & page = 1 & ID = 66230 & DISO =-1 & driverLanguage = 42]

    Independent of the OS has warning: + "this Bios is NOT compatible for notebook computers equipped with Windows Vista!" + "

    So here's my question: this BIOS version is compatible with Windows 7?

    Thank you very much!!

    AJ.

    Hello

    I think that this BIOS (v2.0) is not released for Windows 7 and that it has also not been tested with Windows 7. This BIOS has published 21.01.2009 and Windows 7 was released on July 22, 2009. However, on the other hand it s not mentioned that this BIOS is not compatible with Win 7.

    But the fact is that only Windows 7 doesn't is NOT supported on this laptop.

    Windows 7 drivers are not out on Sat A110, but this does not mean that you couldn't install Win 7 on this device. Of course, you can install the Win 7 system, but Toshiba does not provide any Win 7 software for this series.

    Back to BIOS update:
    In your case I would try not to update the BIOS if the laptop works properly.
    Why? Because the update of the BIOS is still a technique sensitive and you could damage it the motherboard if something goes wrong during the update of the BIOS.

  • Update the BIOS for Satellite U400-10O required

    Hello world

    I have a SATELLITE U400-10 oC (PSU40E-00R00EG3). It is an old product, but once I always love use regularly.

    Recently, I bought a battery for this device upgrade. Unfortunately, it does not recognize the laptop. The work of the battery, but I don't you all information about the charge level. I tried various tricks 'reset' (removing ACPI Microsoft in the list of the drivers installed, running down the battery completely etc..).

    I think the BIOS might be exceeded and I'd like to update. Unfortunately, the Web of Toshiba site does not list updates for him more. Still, someone has access to updates the BIOS for this?

    The BIOS is a Phoenix currently to version 4.70.

    Hello

    N my BIOS of opinion has nothing to do with it. Battery can be replaced, and if you use compatible batteries they should be recognized correctly. Here is the list of all compatible batteries:
    PA3534U-1BAS/BRS
    1BAS/PA3536U-1BRS
    PA3634U-1BAS/BRS
    PA3635U-1BAM/BRM

    Purchased one of these and original Toshiba product (label Toshiba) or a product without a name?

  • Satellite A300 - after the BIOS update I can not install two OS

    Hello everyone:

    I bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite A300-247 with Windows Vista Home Premium.

    Then I formatted it and divided the hard (320 GB) into 6 partitions and installed Windows Vista and Windows XP on drive C to drive D after having changed the SATA controller mode in the BIOS for compatibility. The computer worked well with 2 operating systems. However, when I updated the BIOS to version 1.9, two operating systems stop working and one of them can be installed: XP can be installed when SATA controller mode is placed on compatibility and Vista can be installed only when the SATA is changed to AHCI.

    Is there is no explanation of what past? And can I install operating systems 2 together again?

    Thank you

    Hello

    First of all, I doubt that this has something to do with the BIOS update. I think that after the BIOS update HARD drive mode has been changed from AHCI to compatibility and therefore the OS didn't start.

    Anyway, in compatibility mode you can install Vista and XP without the SATA drivers. This should t be a problem.

    But do you know the difference between compatibility and AHCI? AHCI mode is faster and therefore I would recommend this mode.
    Like you said Vista you can already install in AHCI mode and for XP, you need Intel Storage Manager. This package includes the SATA drivers you need and here is a step by step guide to use these drivers:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD9401AN0000R01.htm

    Last but not least, you can install 2 OS. You can do what you want! ;)
