Satellite A200-23U - Bios Update need for XP

Hello!

Where can I find the update of the BIOS for this laptop for Windows XP?

Thank you.

Seems that European Toshiba driver page provides a BIOS for the Vista operating system and the BISO for XP is not available or do not exist.

Have you tried to install XP without updating the BIOS?

I think this should be possible and the update of the BIOS would not be necessary at this time.

    Hello everyone

    I update the BIOS of my laptop and something went wrong: () now my laptop does not turn on the screen.

    Thank you very much

    Hi fear_angel,

    Well, I think in this case you can do anything and I would not try this BIOS recovery program. There is no formal way and you could destroy most or the entire module ROM.

    You must contact an authorized assistance service provider. Technicians can try to reflash the ROM module I'm sure they will help you as much as possible.

    Good luck! :)

    In the worst case you will need to contact the Toshiba authorised service provider in order to solve this problem.

    To my knowledge, a special crisis disk BIOS is required for reflashing the EMPRO module.
    Some people were abele to create this disc using a few 3rd party apps but it wasn't always so I guess you have to contact service engineer has set.

  • Satellite 1410-604-BIOS update > update BIOS Incorrect in the web?

    Hi there again!

    Now with a new and strange issue.

    We all know that tell old... "If it does not break, don't fix it." And if you put in more computer terms, "especially if it's a BIOS.

    Yes, we all know that the BIOS is something quite dellitate to manage. For some reason, we normally feel as if we manage something like nitroglycerine, or radioactive products. And it's because we all know who is put at risk at the moment: our (or sometimes other) computer, the whole system could end up as dead as some pieces of metal, plastic and son.

    Well. I passed through all of this, more than 10 times in my life, and only once, it went wrong. But since this old motherboard was already dead, it was not important. But I've always been EXTREMELY care. Allways cross checked everything before you do anything, allways has a backup and a way to allways and restore that backup... I did COMPAQ systems, which have been prepared in this way. A BIOS update was about about a disc, turn on the PC with the disk in the floppy drive and wait. And if you don't like the results, you just click on 'back to a previus BIOS' and that was it... very nice. And easy.

    A few days ago a friend gave me a Toshiba Satellite 1410 604 to solve some problems that have been her crazy. After you remove a Norton Internet Security has expired, install avast and scan, I found more than a hundred of files infected with a variety of viruses, malware, trojans, and everything you could imagine. Avast all removed, but the rest of the operating system was so unstable that we decide to format it and install from scratch.

    I asked for the restore disks, which obviously it failed because they were lost in one of his trips. After that we had confirmation of Toshiba representatives there is no disk recovery available for this model, because it is too old, we decided to install from scratch like any other normal PC and resigned to losing some of the utilities accompanying that CD and are not available for download on the Web site.

    I downloaded all the software available for this model, including two updates to the BIOS. (In reality an update, but in two versions: Windows and traditional) and prepared a CD with all the drivers and programs as if it were a new system installation. And everything was fine, no problems at all. Until we arrived at the wireless LAN card, but that's another problem is already solved (the mini PCI card for the WLAN does not support the encriptación WEP or WAP, and it is not possible to connect to any LAN encripted wireless).

    At this point, and when I started setting up and activation of peripheral PCMCIA and USB devices (this computer only supports USB 1.1, 2.0 not) I discovered this text from Toshiba Web site:

    "This Bios update adds functionality to your system.
    (BIOS stands for Basic Input and Output System. This program is stored in a chip memory dead on the motherboard.
    When the computer comes on, the BIOS is launched to perform various functions to start.)

    For more detailed updated information, please refer to Information update BIOS Toshiba"

    Quite specific. Isn't?)

    According to the information in this Web site, the available BIOS fits the following models:

    "Satellite 2410 414, Satellite 1410, Satellite 1410 - 654S, Satellite 1410 814, Satellite 2410-303, Satellite 2410-304 s, Satellite 1410 354, 2410-601 Satellite, Satellite 1410-401, {color: #ff0000} * Satellite 1410 604 * {color}, Satellite 2410-404, Satellite 1410-301, Satellite 1410-304, Satellite 2410 S403, Satellite Pro 2100, Satellite 1410 S203, Satellite 2410-304, Satellite 1410 554, Satellite 1410 S102, Satellite 1410 - 354F, Satellite 2410 703, Satellite 1410-303, Satellite 2410 - S203, Satellite 1410-801, Satellite 2410 603, Satellite 1410-902.

    Yes... it's here!

    Now when you go into the "Toshiba BIOS update information", you get:

    "Ref. FAQ: TRO0000000b07.

    A BIOS update is a {color: #ff0000} * operation is relatively simple and can be done by computer more competent users * {color}. All BIOS updates can be obtained from "BIOS update" Section download click here...

    Note: the BIOS files are specific machine the correct BIOS for your machine should be used. »

    Please note that Toshiba does not disencourage BIOS manipulation, on the contrary: they even encourage people to do. It is not badly needed, but at the same time that they encourage people to 'play' with such a delicate question, at the end of this page, in small letters, they say:

    "Toshiba provides this information"as is"{color: #ff0000} * without warranty of any kind * {color}, explicit or implied, including, but not limited to, the implied warranties of quality market or adequacy has a specific use." Toshiba shall not be liable to the topicality, accuracy, completeness or quality of the information provided. {color: #ff0000} * Toshiba is not responsible for damage caused by the use of any information provided, including incomplete or incorrect information * {color}. »

    This should trigger yellow alarms in our minds.

    + "Human error is inherent in man, and it is not possible to eradicate. It will be displayed always, sooner or later"(Prof. James Reason). +

    And finally, I made the mistake. Although I have read this warning, I remembered all these successful BIOS update with COMPAQ and relied for Toshiba. This update was available there, and Toshiba told me that it was for this computer. Great!

    So finally, I disconnected all devices (USB), removed the PCMCIA (WLAN), plugged the battery charger to avoid any possible battery problem, restarted windows, and then Windows started the update (windows version, such as recommended by Toshiba). This drug looked very nice, nothing different from what I usually see on these old COMPAQs.

    As reported by the update program, the system would restart. And in fact he did.

    Windows normally closed (a little faster than normal, but without mistakes, and since there is no other programs that most - even the antivirus not working - no), the computer turned off, all lights (normal) offshore, and then again on...

    {color: #0000ff} * BEEEEEEEEEEEEP... BEEEP... ... BEEEEP * {color}

    OMG! I never movement something SO bad. 3-1-1!

    And now... What a 3-1-1 is here? Award BIOS would mean no card graphics or video deffective card, but it is not true, because it worked 20 seconds ago. There are BIOS.

    He never came again to life. He's still 3-1-1 beep.

    But now comes the investigation on the human factors involved in this accident.

    I found I committed the following errors:

    * (1) * rely in the constructor, even if they have WRITTEN their information may be incorrect or incomplete. (BAD if I was a detective QA & QC).

    * (2) * I cross checked deep enough (until it was already too late).

    * (3) * I haven't looked above for how to make a backup of the BIOS to restore must anything deceive you.

    * (4) * let Toshiba lead me to a path that I didn't walk, just because of their supply of 'increased functionality.

    * (5) * Beleave in Toshiba when they said "relatively simple operation and can be performed by the most competent computer users"... they never said it is infallible. "."

    Then I began the most interesting part of the investigation.

    {color: #0000ff} * "what went wrong?" * {color}

    Obviously, the update of the BIOS has not somewhere, somewhere. And I wanted to know what and where.

    First thing, I discovered that there is another Toshiba search engine called "askiris" ([http://askiris.toshiba.com]) and I looked to see if, for any chance I could get the old BIOS 1.20 version which was installed at the origin of this machine.

    And I found something... VERY interesting:

    GOOD! Or not?

    Let's take a look:

    First thing I did was download all four files.

    Then I took the same version that made the accident: 1.40

    I unzipped the file, which I found:

    And I got my first surprise here: there is a {color: #ff0000} * README. TXT * {color} that was not present in the file that I downloaded earlier from the repository of drivers.

    So I went the readme.txt and I found this:

    'README. CDC TXT 31/01/2003
    Flash BIOS version 1.40 for Satellite 1410
    -----

    Satellite 2410-S203
    Satellite 2410-S204.

    Please note that the model 1410-604 is * NOT * listed.

    I thought ' well, there must be another archive... ". »

    But then I realized a name that seems familiar, that is, in the directory where I unzipped this file 1.40, and the name is:

    {color: #0000ff} * 2410A9V140. EXE * {color}

    So I took the other file, the update of BIOS_Win, and I discovered that the name of the file is:

    * {color: #0000ff} 2410A9V140. EXE, {color} * (Ups!)

    So I once again, uncompressed to find:

    No readme file...

    Then another issue raised in my mind: what happened to the other file 1.40? What did the other 2410A9V140. EXE are inside?

    This:

    * {color: #ff0000} they have two 20 files and 1 046 461 bytes. I asumed that they are the SAME two folder {color} *.

    And the readme file does not list the model 1410-604 in its readme file, so I can't explain it except as a Toshiba error. * {color: #ff0000} they put an incorrect BIOS on their website and has proposed updating and somehow lead to such mistakes. {color} *.

    (Except in the case that one of these models is a name that is different from the model 1410-604, and if that's the case... now I don't know why this BIOS do not work with this computer).

    The worst thing is that neither the other files (V1.10, 1.20 and 1.30) lists the 1410-604, apparently so no solution possible workaround for this problem. I need an original v1.20 to the CMOS, and Toshiba seems to have. They offered me to solve the problem, leaving the laptop to an ASP, and pay only € 95 for the work and about € 280 for a motherboard replacement, I will get it resolved. But they offer no guarantees of their possibilities because is a model "too old" and "abandoned" and "unsupported"...

    In other words, they said 'you don't have to bother with it, just go and buy a new' (something of quite out of my reach in this time of crisis): P

    Thanks for reading so far.

    Now, what I need is to get ideas on a work around for this, my ideas are:

    (1) the CMOS has some startup that works (it allows a roll-back if you have the appropriate file). So I need a good BIOS to burn in the CMOS memory, the SAME SAME model (a backup BIOS) but the backup should be sufficient for the burning program (CHGBIOSA.COM).

    (2) it is always possible that the BIOS might be OK, but the CMOS data has been corrupted somehow. If so, the CMOS of compensation could solve problem. But I wasn't able to find a clear cmos from the outside button, and after disasembling I took battery, with no good result. I try to leave the MOBO without battery for a period more long (I left it about 20 seconds) just in case where 20 seconds are not all capacitors for well pass zero values. I don't have a lot of hope in this point.

    (3) try to get a REAL good update from Toshiba. I contacted technical support several times, and I was able to verify that they are only - phone operators, with a script in front of them, and when the problem is going - out of reach, they fall in the same response: "you must go to an ASP. I still have a faint hope to find someone who really knows a little and could illuminate with a good BIOS in this disc.

    (4) as far as I could find, this BIOS is not any BIOS-manufacturer known. It seems that it has been developed by Toshiba (own brand), so the Phoenix crisis recovery disk won't be of any help here. As well as any other BIOS recovery tool not designed for Toshiba BIOS. But I'm open to all ideas, which could be put to the test more or less safely. (Remember that the 'BIOS-BOOT-PART' feature still works, I don't want to lose that possibility alone of redemption).

    Wwwaaaaoooowww... what a falks long post! Sorry about that!

    Forgive me, but I wanted to be really clear.

    Someone give some tips or advice will be greatly appreciated.

    Please don't say that I shouldn't be doing... I already know that. I already did some research and found my mistakes, not to repeat them. Now, I need to spend, to move and to try to solve this problem, or at least learn to solve similar things. As much as possible.

    Thank you once again, in advance, and sorry again.

    Modified subject to beter reflect what the problem is (apparently erroneous file BIOS in Toshiba Download Center).

    Hi Fenix,

    Wow... He tooked a lot of time to read your post...

    Maybe I can help you.

    The Bios in the website is the right one. If you have downloaded the right version of the Bios.

    Toshiba America, which has most of the time the Askiris you used isn't accurate models for Toshiba Europe.
    This should be the reason, why does not the readme file contain the European model.

    I'll try to do an update of the fresh Bios using the update of the traditional Bios.

    Copy the files on the disk, put it in the floppy drive, press and hold power on the notebook tab.
    After that the laptop is off, press on and hold the key on the left side of space power on the laptop new bar and wait until it turns off again.

    If your laptop does not power perhaps the most, the RAM is default?

    Therefore, if the use of the traditional Bios or change memory doesn't help, and your laptop is still dead you should go to a SPA, but it will cost money.

    I now have my fourth Toshiba laptop and I had never problems with the Bios updates.

    The 1410 is very old I think, so before you go to a SPA, I'd buy a new ;)

  • Satellite A200-23U - strange Grapich/display problem

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A200-23U and it has a problem... sometimes graphics seems worse suddenly or are destroyed. A simple reboot can operate correctly, but it is very possible to reproduce... when I say that the graphics are getting worse I mean the resolution becomes a little bit worse, and the colors are unacceptable... some waves are created and the areas that were almost of the same color before the problem are now surrounded by a ring-wave , they have only one color with no shading and a few white spots are in these areas... after the restart, everything is ok...!

    I think the problem happens when the laptop is hot, but I'm not sure because he appeared also when the laptop was working only a few minutes in a cold environment and sometimes the device can be turned on for long hours and very hot, but the problem does not appear... Where did you think is the problem?

    The possible reasons, I can think of is the monitor or the cable that connects the graphics card with the monitor. Another reason that I n t think it's quite possible is the graphics card. I think this is less possible because if the problem exists on my laptop and I connect to another external screen as my TV, the problem still exists on the screen of the laptop, but the image on the external monitor is perfect...

    I'm ready to put new and bigger (2 GB I'll put 4gp) memory ram because the graphics card uses the RAM and the RAM is very high work when I play a game or watch a move.

    Do you think it will help or solve problems? What do you think I could do?

    Hi John

    What then? As I see you have good test connect your laptop to the TV. Always is that this test can help you see if the problem can be related to the graphics card, but if there is no problem graphics card is probably OK and this graphic problem must relate to something else.

    Of course, this virtual path, no one will be able to offer the exact diagnosis and say what can be the problem and we can only speculate what part of the material may be troublemaker.

    In my opinion there must be a problem between the motherboard and display. I don t think that the display is faulty, but perhaps the cable must be exchanged, perhaps connector on motherboard make problems. It is not easy to say what to do.

    Fact is that analysis only offer exact answer so I think you need professional help with this.
    Maybe you should contact the closest service Toshiba and ask for help. Let them check it all and ordering new parts if necessary.

    I put t think that you want to risk and disassemble the laptop everything yourself, have you?

    Hey Buddy,

    Before you start the update of the BIOS, make sure that all files are checked and logged as administrator. Then close all running programs execution also your AntiVirus and your firewall, then launch the BIOS update.
    Also make sure that the battery is fully charged and AC/DC adapter is plugged in.

    In addition, it would be interesting to know what OS you start the update.

  • Satellite Pro A200-PSAE4E - what BIOS I need for the update and how?

    Please on A) the correct updated version needs to B) process

    (A) the machine came with Vista installed, but it has been ranked towards the bottom to XP works on Win2003/XP network.

    The current bios to V5.20 do update to 2.60 - win 32 (vista) or win 5.60

    (B) Toshiba FAQ - FAQ ref: TRO0000000b07 shows how to upgrade the bios unfortunately it does not list the satellite Pro A200 - then what is the procedure - thanks in advance.

    Hello!

    If you want to update the BIOS, you need version 5.60. Are the other version for Vista and 5,60 only one is for XP and if it s the right one for you.

    The BIOS update procedure is quite easy. The update is based on Windows, which means that you can update it on Windows. So to extract all files from zip archive and run the exe file. Then updated your BIOS.
    But before update you, close all programs running even your AntiVirus and firewall and connect the AC adapter.

    Good luck!

    Good bye

  • 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

    > I tried an ATX reset and uninstall method battery Microsoft ACPI compatible controls.

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

    Hey Buddy

    You have a machine with the ATI graphics card. Am I wrong?
    If Yes, then the Chipset driver is ALREADY included in the ATI graphics driver that is available on the European driver Toshiba page!

    The order of installation displays the instructions step by step for all THE portable Satellite A200 PSAE6E but the fact is that devices were equipped with different material parts and that's why some single drivers do not appear or are not available.

    Once again; Utility/driver chipset is available/included in the ATI graphics driver

  • Satellite A200 - AH6 PSAE0C: update BIOS - Date & Time Reset problem

    Then I updated my laptop Satellite A200 - AH6 PSAE0C (Bios and graphic update) after installation of Toshiba Power Saver, but from time to time now, if I do a restart, there is a black screen on reboot with some info about my BIOS and some things put in guard/failure.

    Also, when she comes back, once again, every so often, my time is reset to December 2004, 12: 00

    Any suggestions?

    Hmm... This strange s... maybe you should try to update the BIOS again. I'm not sure if this is possible if the BIOS has been already updated to the latest version but it worth a try.
    In addition, you should access the BIOS and it set to the default settings and need to save settings.

    See you soon

  • Satellite A10 BIOS update needed!

    Hey guys, my Satellite A10 guard restart whenever I stopped him. I talked to my friend and he said there's a BIOS problem, and I should be updated. So I downloaded the latest version of Toshiba and run it. It told me to insert a disk. This wouldn't be a problem but my A10 is not a floppy drive then how am I ment to upgrade the BIOS of my computer without a floppy drive?

    Hello

    For your model of laptop ago just traditional BIOS update and you need a USB FDD for it. In my opinion, you can check on ebay or somewhere there FDD cheaply or you can contact the Service partner.

    It takes about 10 minutes for the BIOS update, and you can do it alone. It is very easy. As I said, check if you can find a used floppy drive. It cannot be expensive.

    Also, you can borrow one from your dealer or your business!

  • My Satellite A200 - 1 M 8 need all drivers for XP?

    I am installing XP on a Satellite A200 - 1 M 8 and ask yourself if this is a must for ALL drivers to install...

    To do this, delete: I use this system for a specific application where wireless lan or SD card reader or build in camera will not be used.
    My question is: so that the system works correctly, next to respect the correct driver installation order, is it mandatory to have ALL the drivers installed?

    Hello

    In my opinion, you must install only the common drivers like chipset, drivers of graphics cards, LAN, WLan, etc.
    These drivers are important and necessary to use the laptop and get the best performance from the system.
    But as card SD or Webcam drivers are not needed if you n t intend to use these devices

    > I want to keep my system as light as possible and possibly to avoid interference of any buggy drivers
    Hmmm. don't think that there will be all the disturbances until you will not use the devices that the driver is missing ;)

  • BIOS update alert for Satellite L755 19 X Win 7 64 bit

    I just got a toshiba alert.

    It says I need to install the new update of the bios (version of bios date bios 3, 60-WIN 15/03/13), but the link seems to be although I already download it and installed in 2012:

    is this the same file or it's just a bad link?
    Thanks for your response

    Hello

    I guess you have received notification of the Toshiba tool called Tempro.
    This tool does not check the version that is already installed.

    This tool ONLY indicates that a new file has been uploaded to the server of pilot and is ready for download
    Therefore, it is NOT an invitation to update the BIOS or driver you know

    In addition, you should know that BIOS update is always sensitive to a procedure and if you don t have problems, I put t all this serious reasons to do

  • Satellite Pro L40: Bios update not necessary - no settings for RAM in Bios 1.90

    Hi, I just bought a Satellite Pro L40 laptop and im trying to figure out why the bios has no parameter memory.
    If I look at the ram using a tool of information system (cpuz or aida320), it shows she doesn't move at the speed of 667 mhz but at 533 mhz.

    As you can see from this screenshot the memory runs at the real speed is less than the maximum that the sticks have a rated power.

    http://img135.imageshack.us/img135/4580/cpuz1pj5.jpg

    Its running at 266 mhz (533 mhz ddr) where it should be run at 333 mhz (667 mhz ddr).

    I also noticed that with this laptop fan never seems to come, is it possible to mount the fan?
    Whenever I have the laptop for more than 30 minutes, it becomes very hot.

    Hello

    > if I look at the ram using a tool of information system (cpuz or aida320) it shows that it does not run at the speed of 667 mhz but at 533 mhz.

    What is your FSB?
    If the laptop was equipped with memory PC2-5300 modules then they could run at 667 MHz, but only if the FSB would supports 667 MHz! I think is supported by the FSB of 533 Mhz.
    So I can't say it s nothing wrong!

    > I just bought a Satellite Pro L40 laptop and im trying to figure out why the bios has no parameter memory.
    Why do you think a BIOS update would turn the memory settings in the BIOS?
    Please don t mix of desktop computers laptops! Laptops cannot be overclocked.
    BIOS of laptop computers is not the same thing as a desktop PC BIOS!

    > I also noticed that with this computer laptop fan never seems to come, is there a way to turn the fan to the top? Whenever I have the laptop for more than 30 minutes, it becomes very hot.
    Have you noticed all automatically turn off downs or any other strange behaviors laptop as freezing OS for example?
    If it is then that the laptop runs correctly and doesn't overheat.
    Books to support thermal protection which would be closed the laptop automatically to avoid equipment damage

    Then lean back man and enjoy your nice toy ;)
