Satellite C660-117 crashed on the update of the BIOS

A customer with a C660-117 has received a message from Tempro saying updating the BIOS. He did what he was told, but the update crashed in Block 8 and would go no further.

Laptop will not start now. Y at - it a BIOS recovery tool or should he be returned to Toshiba to be fixed. Client not happy because it was Tempro who told him to put the BIOS updated.

Any help much appreciated.

Hello

Generally, the BIOS update procedure is security.
But some before performing a BIOS update, all applications and software as antivirus software, firewalls that work in the background should be closed.

However, for as far as I know that BIOS flash ROM must be flashed/repair using a disc of crisis

But if it wouldn't be useful, you need to contact a Toshiba ASP in your country for repair.

    Hi hassen,.

    I'm a little confused about your ad Mr. does that mean exactly? You can't get into the BIOS but Windows starts correctly, no?

    Well, usually you can get into the BIOS if you press the F2 key once you have turned on the computer. Therefore, not only press one key to access the BIOS and not both. Press the F2 key repeatedly until you see the configuration of the BIOS.

    Check this box!

  • Satellite C660-1tim: - cannot enter the BIOS due to the fast start feature

    Hello.
    I activated the quick start function that ignores the Logos and boots only from the HARD drive, but I can't enter or reset the Bios.

    I tried every combination of buttons, I can think.
    Power on + F2 does not work.
    F1, F10, F12, del, ESC, INS - all do not work

    Set BIOS to day 1, 50-win.
    Help, please.

    Hello

    To access the BIOS, you must turn on the unit first (press the power button) and immediately press the F2 key. You can press F2 repeatedly in the line to make sure that the button has been pressed.

    By the way: the Toshiba HWSetup is preinstalled on most Toshiba laptops.
    This utility provides the BIOS options and settings. So, you can change the boot order by using this tool also. You can find it in Toshiba Assist-> tab optimize

    A Wi - Fi connection is not displayed with the adapters in Device Manager.
    In Device Manager there is a network controller (if this is right), but the laptop can not find a driver in the driver update and it is not active.

    Hello

    My Satellite Pro A110 crashes during the transfer of the large data in LAN. The network driver is a Realtek RTL8139/810 x Family Fast Ethernet NIC I've been looking through this forum and found some wire whit exactly the same problem, saying that the solution is to update Realtek lan set up in BIOS, not the computer BIOS, but I can't find any link to download the necessary upgrade file. Can anyone tell me please where to find this upgrade file or send it to me directly?

    Thanks in advance

    Is - this transfer of data in the company where you work? Do you want to download data from the server, or how to understand this? How to understand what you mean under big data?

    Have you tried downloading data on the Internet? For example, if you try to download some trailer HD (more than 200 MB)?

  • Satellite C660-117 - does not start, does not load

    Hello

    I have a laptop Satellite C660-117, and recently I had problems with the power with her. I found that it is capricious, when it comes to the charge, and recently I have if he had sat in one place that I knew would charge like that, she decided to carry the laptop elsewhere and because not able / load power since the battery down dry. I have not tried to reconnect where I had initially (and it is not really appropriate that she be sitting in one place, mainly because it is partially in the way of a desktop system).

    I tried various things, taking the battery and the AC adapter on, leaving for awhile, then connect their return and also to get out them, by pressing the power button for 30 seconds and in reconnecting him back, but the problem seems to be between the power adapter and the laptop itself (no power is going to the laptop of the sector). I also tried to use a different power adapter from another laptop, but it did not work either.

    I was wondering if there was another option that I could try, or if I'm stuck with having to buy another laptop, as it is waaaaaaaaaaaay out of warranty. I'd rather not go for this option, nor can really afford to send him off for a while to be repaired because of the time it would probably.

    Thanks in advance!

    If the laptop can't run with AC power only there is a problem with electronic power supply to the motherboard.
    Sorry, but these questions, you need professional help. Problem is that the remedy will be quite expensive.
    So perhaps the best solution for you is to sell it on ebay because several pieces of equipment can be used for replacement and buy new laptops.

  • Satellite A210-15Y crashed during the update of the bios

    The worst case has happened and the laptop computer crashed during an update of the bios. I know that there is the possibility to repait the bios with a tool of recovery from crisis. For this purpose you have to press 2 keys (in most cases FN + B or Win + B) during the connection of the supply cable and the next start. I tried many books, but nothing happened. Can someone tell me the keys on which I have to press a 210 - 15Y satellite and maybe where I can get an image of cd of the tool of the crisis, because the laptop does not have a floppydrive?

    Hello

    As far as I know that the BIOS crisis procedure may be crazy by a technician of the ASP.
    You can not download a version of traditional BIOS who can update the BIOS from a USB FDD floppy.
    You can download only focused on the victory of the BIOS that can be run so that windows operating system is running.

    In my opinion, you should get in touch with a local ASP!

  • Satellite C660 Wireless stopped since the update of the BIOS 1.4

    In fact, there is a thread on this same topic closed. But I would like to add something.

    My Satellite C660 is dual-boot. I have Ubuntu installed as well as Windows 7. Now, at the moment that I stupidly updated the bios to 1.4 the wireless doesn't work under windows. But he continued to work under Ubuntu.

    So, I know that the material has not broken suddenly. It is clearly a serious error in the bios update provided by Toshiba and must be fixed immediately.

    One kind may explain how to restore the previous bios. I know it was recorded somewhere because I saw what happens during the update process.

    See you soon!

    > Now, at the moment that I stupidly updated the bios to 1.4 the wireless doesn't work under windows. But he continued to work under Ubuntu.

    Have you checked if the WiFi is enabled in Windows 7?
    Usually you must activate the Wlan using Fn + F8 keys.

    Check it!

  • Satellite Pro L100 - Crash during the update of the Bios

    Hello

    I am the owner of a Satellite Pro L100 (PSLA4E)

    On the Toshiba site I downloaded the BIOS update. While installing I read that it was necessary to supply cable is plugged. Before I could cancel for the cable, he had started and then frozen. The computer stopped working and so I turned it off! Since then, I've read that it was a very big mistake!

    When put on the fan starts and I can hear etc cd drive spinning. After 15 seconds, the screen is blank, the computer starts beeping!
    Is there a way to solve this?

    Thank you very much
    Rich

    Hi Richard

    Seems not good buddy from your description, that something went wrong during the update procedure and now the ROM module has been flashed properly.

    Maybe you area lucky man and the motherboard isn't too bad, but only the Rom module must be flashed again.

    Unfortunately, this must be done by the technician of the ASP. You will need to contact the ASP in your country for assistance.

    Good luck and have a nice day

  • Satellite C660 - continues to enter the system repair

    Can someone help me?

    I have a Toshiba Satellite C660. Yesterday, it crashed. When it restarted, it went in the repair of the system and whenever I rebooted, it entered the system repair. Don't know if it is relivant but I get a windown come with drvload.exe back.

    So I did a factory restore hdd thinking this would clearly be the problem, but it didn't. Now I always get a repair system each time I do updates of mircosoft when I restart, more I can't hardly open programs like firefox, add and remove programs.

    I now use a check of HDD to see if I have bad sectors, have also scan mcfee which showed no virus.

    Any suggestions would be grateful because do not know what to try next.

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    > So I did a factory restore hdd thinking this would clearly be the problem, but it didn't.
    That would mean he s no malfunction of the software and the problem seems to be hardware related. HARD drive recovery can restore the original settings of the software box and they are pre-tested by Toshiba. So, theoretically, he could be sector failed HARD drive, RAM failure or something else

    > Now, I always get a repair system each time I do updates of mircosoft
    This would mean that the problem appears only after Windows update or I understand something wrong?

    Toshiba bulletin board said that the need to update BIOS, so I followed the instructions but since then I have no internet connection, and cannot restore the connection that I lost all help Toshiba Bulletin Board today lost and none of the programs to sort the problems work - e.g.set assistants etc. I did not yet create rescue disks, but if I try to create them now I'll be able to restore to factory settings?

    Can someone tell me if it's a failure caused by the BIOS update or I would return laptop to John Lewis for repair? Thank you very much for reading this

    Hey Buddy,

    The default settings in the BIOS load after update? If this is not the case, go into the BIOS and load the default settings. You can enter the BIOS if you press F2 before Windows start and then press the F9 key to load defaults. Then save & exit the BIOS Setup.

    You can access the Internet now?
    You try to access the Internet with LAN or WLAN connection?

    Also check device manager if all devices are recognized correctly.

    > I did not yet create rescue disks, but if I try to create them now I'll be able to restore to factory settings?
    You can create the Toshiba Recovery disk every time. Just launch the pre-installed Toshiba Recovery Media Creator and follow the instructions on the screen. You need just a few blank DVDs to create the discs. Disks contain a factory image of settings which can be restored each time and how many times you want to so with these disks, you are on the safe side ;)
