• Satellite A500 will not start - cannot access BIOS

  Hello

  This morning, I got my satellite a500-1GH. I activated the option "quick start" in the bios and can not enter the bios since the screen jump the "f2" for the parameters and f12 for the boot menu and I can't get into the bios.

  I tried press f2, as soon as I turn on the computer but it dosent get into the bios menu.

  And also the custom of the bone rises, the stack of the screen in 'bbs-hard disk... boot. "and it stay like that until I shut down the computer.

  Please help me here...
  Thank you!

  Hello

  To me it seems strange that you can not enter the Bios. I just suggest you plug the keyboard external usb and try to enter the Bios (maybe, for some reasons allowing the quick start, the laptop keyboard doesn't work pressing f2). Then try to remove the hard drive and check.

  I've no idea what to say, maybe other users will also suggest something.

• Re: Upgraded to I7-2720qm C670 Satellite, updated the BIOS?

  I put an I7-2720 in my C670 and everything works fine. I had to use external cooling fans to keep the temp down but Ihad planned for it.

  I wonder if I should update my standard 1.40 bios which is recommended so that I can use the full functionality of a TM I7 CPU.

  Thanks for any help

  Hello

  As far I know that Toshiba doesn't support BIOS update and BIOS update has nothing to do with your update. BIOS update is intended to resolve certain problems or offer additional options, but it has nothing to with CPU upgrade.

  I hope everything will be OK with your laptop in the future. Be careful, how can you use it. I guess you know that after CPU upgrade each hardware failure and repair, you must pay yourself.
