    I downloaded the new version of BIOS (v1.4) official Toshiba site to update my computer Satellite L500D (PSLK0A - 00U009). But after the update, Windows 7 cannot start, Windows logo appears for a while then it restarts automatically. Windows then goes into repair mode. I followed the instructions on the screen to fix. But it does not work.
    When I reinstalled Windows, the computer worked fine until Windows Update told me to restart the computer. The computer dies again.

  • Satellite L750 - Bluetooth does not work after BIOS update

    I am preparing some L750 notebooks for use and accept updates from the Toshiba, which included an upgrade of BIOS v1.70 for v2.00. He appears after this update occurs that Bluetooth no longer works, i.e. try to install Bluetooth Toshiba stack will fail as it is said that the Bluetooth radio is disabled and must be turned on for continue.

    As the L750 (model PSK1WA-0C300R) is not a hardware switch to enable or disable the Bluetooth/Wi-Fi, the only option available (Fn + F8) is unsuccessful. I ran a recovery of factory default installation and Bluetooth still does not - resumption of classes does not restore the BIOS to the previous version. I have 5 of the model and confirmed the update of the BIOS is the cause. Two laptops now have v2.00 and Bluetooth has been tested in the work before the update of the BIOS.

    If Bluetooth is not critical for the environment which I deploy these notebooks, it's an annoyance I want to solve. My questions are: has anyone encounter the same problem and managed to resolve it? Is there a BIOS v1.70 available for download to restore the functionality? Y at - it an update of the BIOS > V2.00 for solve the problem I have? Thank you.

    Hi JasonL750,

    Load default settings after updating the BIOS? Go into the BIOS, press the F9 key to load the default settings of the installation. Also, make sure that Bluetooth is enabled in the BIOS if there is such an option.

    In addition, it would be interesting to know what happens if you use the FN + F8 key combination. Don't you see that he has an option to turn on Bluetooth and if so what happens if you do this?

  • Satellite L40 (PSL48E) - is not restart after BIOS update

    Hello

    My problem is that I have updated the BIOS and after that the machine does not restart. (Corrupt BIOS?)

    After that the BIOS updated (Satellite L40 PSL48E), reboot the machine and with the F2 key, I open the BIOS setup.
    I check the version of the BIOS (5.50) and complete the configuration of the BIOS. The machine must restart now...
    Not at all, the machine does not restart. No screen only the powerled lights.

    I can to fix it on my own as a BIOS reset?

    Thank you for the cooperation.

    It's strange because after that the updated BIOS update you can go into the BIOS.

    However, try to remove the battery and the AC adapter. Wait one hour and then put the battery back in and connect the AC adapter. Try again.

    If it doesn't work it is something wrong with the hardware or BIOS and must be checked by a technician for laptop.

  • Re: Satellite X 200 - 20F - slow pace after BIOS update

    Hello!

    I have a Satellite X 200 - 20F bought about 4 years ago. I changed the bios 2.70 recently and I had a problem when I play games:
    The performance of the laptop suddenly decrease after a few minutes of play. For example, when I play Fable 3 + or + + Duke Nukem Forever + the framrate goes to 10-15 fps of 40-50 fps. I need to restart the game to correct this, but even that, the problem come back...

    I used version 1.40 BIOS and no problem.

    What should I do?
    You have one advise?

    Thanks in advance,
    Direct them best.

    Hi Crowzer,

    I m wondering that you did a BIOS update if you didn't have any problems before

    I can only imagine that a BIOS setting is different now. So I recommend to load the default settings in the BIOS, then save & exit.

    Try also to update your display driver. You can find the latest version on the official page of Toshiba also.

  • Satellite A100-TA7 hangs at POST after BIOS update

    Kind of tech swavy, I know that my chances are very low to solve this but this is.

    I decided to update the BIOS on my laptop Toshiba Satellite A100-TA7(PSAA8C-TA702C) to the latest version available (6.00).

    I did it because I've heard of people have better luck doing their job of FN keys on linux with the latest BIOS.
    The installation is completed normally (went through all the steps, wrote to all 21 blocks) without any error, but after the reboot, I noticed that it is now displayed at the Toshiba logo screen.

    The blue progress bar moves twice but got caught then about 1/3 of the way through.
    To see how bad the damage was, I Press esc at the beginning of the POST and saw that it gives me the right Version of the BIOS (6.00).

    He also told me that "no TPM or TPM has problem" and "2039 M RAM Passed system."
    It then displays the message "Press to enter SETUP" (which makes the message disappears, but otherwise doesn't do anything.

    If I press f2 during the Toshiba logo screen, it replaces the message at the bottom with "Please wait" and nothing happens even after an hour of waiting.
    (Which makes sense, because before the bar blue everything would load before entering the CMOS settings). The thing is that the BIOS is not really "freeze", it gets stuck just at a specific place (I know because I can press F2 even after an hour of waiting and the laptop meets it by displaying "Please Wait".)

    Someone at - it no more things I could try? Thank you

    PS. I tried clearing CMOS too. (Now the power button for 60 seconds without energy source<--- i'm="" not="" sure="" if="" this="" is="" how="" you="" do="" it="" on="" this="" laptop="" so="" any="" info="" would="" be="" nice).="" and="" i'm="" also="" 100%="" sure="" i="" chose="" the="" right="" bios="" update="" and="" followed="" every="" single="">

    It of very long history and it does not sound good

    > I decided to update the BIOS on my laptop Toshiba Satellite A100-TA7 (PSAA8C-TA702C) to the latest version available (6.00).
    I wonder about your BIOS version that I know, that the laptop series is designed for the Canadian market. It s a Canadian series and the BIOS or drivers should be downloaded from the Canadian site of Toshiba!
    Bad BIOS could cause issues like this it describes your message above!

    > I did it because I've heard of people have better luck doing their job of FN keys on Linux with the latest BIOS.
    Keys FN Toshiba need driver Toshiba and it turns out that Toshiba driver pages don t offer the drivers for Linux distributions, so I put t believe in the story spread by any people.

    I don t want to write a long story, so I would cut this now;
    Is that something was happening during the BIOS update process.
    Either you have used a procedure to update the BIOS or wring wrong and so the laptop can not pass the MESSAGE

    You will need to contact the local ASP to solve this problem, maybe you're a lucky guy and the technician should Flash the ROM module but in the worst cases, your motherboard is damage and must be replaced. :(

    Good luck

    If you have read the topic about this issue with the Satellite A100, you will see that many user were frustrated but right at the last update of the available BIOS. It cannot happen overnight and in my opinion, you must be patient and hope that the good BIOS update will be available shortly.

    Please check in F2 diagnostics if the scrollbar works correctly. If Yes, then you can update the chipset drivers and http://hp.com/drivers touchpad drivers you can also consult with a mouse external further isolate the issue.

    You can also run diagnostics on the touchpad from this link by going to the UEFI F2 diagnostics: http://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c03467259 please run the complete components. If any component fails, please note the failure code. This is done to determine if the problem is hardware or software partners.

    If it passes and scrolling works very well, please perform these updates. If you are still having the same problem on page F2 UEFI (screen) then you could roll back bios after performing a hard reset. Link for the hard reset: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01684768

  • Satellite Pro L100 does not work after BIOS update

    Okay, the computer is a Toshiba Satellite Pro L100 PSLA4. Problem occurred during an update of the BIOS on the official website of Toshiba. I downloaded the zip file, it extracts and activated the .exe file at the Interior.

    The window opened by the .exe is a program flashing BIOS, the .exe wrote at the same time a new BIOS file to a temporary folder.
    When he tried to use the program I got was an error saying it couldn't find the new BIOS to the entrance.

    I tried again only to get the same error. Then I left the laptop for several minutes and when I got home, I found a laptop no longer Virgin.
    On which I hear by an obvious lack of BIOS functions i.e. power LED does not change when the connection to disconnect it from the power outlet and the fact that I had to take out the battery to turn off the machine. When the power is turned on now it is check readers and restarts (no display, no beeps)

    What should I do?
    The first thing that comes to mind was to reset the BIOS.
    A problem, I can not find the RTC battery or a rider switch.

    Hi George

    I can't tell why it happened, but I can tell what happened.

    In my opinion, something went wrong during the process of updating the BIOS and the ROM modules was not writer properly.

    Simply says the BIOS update procedure has failed.
    In this case, you will need to contact the ASP in your country for a fix
    The technician must be able to rewrite the ROM module and updated the BIOS again.

    Good luck buddy

  • UEFI problem after BIOS update

    Hello

    I've recently updated the version of BIOS for the Envy 15 J049TX.

    After the windows update shows "not properly configured SecureBoot.

    Please suggest a solution

    Hi Provost,

    I'm happy to announce that I have overcome the problem of activation of the SecureBoot. I saw an option in BIOS-> setting-> 'HP Factory loading key' Boot. After I loaded the default keys to toggle SecureBoot option has become active and I was able to activate SecureBoot. I applied the last update of the BIOS and has been able to activate SecureBoot successfully after the update.

    I wanted to know if this method is safe and that there can be no other effects on the other parts of the system.

    Thank you very much for the help.

  • Satellite M100 - no speakers sound thorugh after BIOS update

    Hi all

    I have satelite M100 PSMAAA-02006 with XP. I just updated the Bios on V3.0. Speakers do not work after update but the audio jack works so with headphones I can listen to but not through Laptop speakers and the keys to media on top of keyboard play, pause, stop, next, back, etc. homepage react too much.

    Someone knows the solution to this issue. Or is it possible to get the old BIOS? Although I not sure aboutt previous version.

    need quick help. Please answer as soon as possible.

    Thanks & best regards...

    Hi Julie,.

    I doubt that this was due the update of the BIOS. Is that what you have loaded default settings after updating the BIOS?
    Have you chosen the correct BIOS update?

    Normally you can hear the sound on the speakers laptop if you disconnect the headset. Make sure that the sound is not muted, you can do this with the FN + ESC key combination.

    About the multimedia keys, I would recommend reinstallation of Toshiba common Modules. You can find it on the Toshiba site.

    I have a tecra 8100, 700 mhz with 256RAM,.
    and it works a treat, until I decided to update the BIOS, the date of the previous version was 1999!

    As I run an OS linux on this unit, I downloaded a version of the Bios boot image and loaded on startup, it reported the success of the update.

    My problem now is that the system starts fine but extremely short slow,.
    It takes 15 minutes to start and is virtually unusable.

    I ran several tests of comparative analysis and tests of memory of Hiram boot CD and the only problem in the report was my 700 CPU running at 114.82. And of couse running, the CPU runs at 100%.

    I deleted the cmos data and be restarted using the default BIOS settings.

    Hello

    I visited the European driver of Toshiba page and found the latest version of BIOS that is 2, 50 - WIN.
    Do you use it?

    The BIOS can be updated only run under windows! That's why I m surprised that you were able to update the BIOS, the Linux operating system running on this computer.

    Try to download the most recent BIOS version and update as described on the help page of the BIOS update.
