• Defective Portege R700M - BIOS & HDD password reset

  Hello

  My Portege R700M stopped working after I hit the top. Service center had rejected citing 'Mother, damaged card', the laptop has been installed for the protection of the BIOS for the HARD drive password.

  Even if the hard drive is intact, I am not able to recover the data through the BIOS password protection. will be able to help me to unlock the password of Toshiba.

  Concerning

  I guess that the motherboard is faulty and will be replaced. I assume that HDD is OK so I think that your original HARD drive will be used again. After the replacement of the motherboard you n t has more need BIOS password. New motherboard will be more determined by BIOS password.

  At least explain the situation and Toshiba technicians will explain to you how it works.

• Satellite L300D-01N - BIOS version original need

  Hello

  had a bad bios flash when you try to apply PSLC8-PSLE8-180 - WIN.exe (Ver 1.80, 10/27/2009) updated the bios of my Satellite L300D-01N, model # PSLC8C-01N019

  now, the unit does not come on at all - I'm trying to restore it to work but it is impossible to find a copy of the bios file updated (from the active windows self-extracting program Toshiba update bios) during installation
  (I tried to extract it on another pc that the portable original is a brick now but still no luck)

  I was able to confirm that I can get the system to the laptop using the CRC, but I need a copy of the * original * BIOS that came with these units so I can reflash.
  does anyone have a copy of the original bios this device before you apply this update (ver. 1.8 2009-10-27)?

  Please note that I was not myself tried this update of the BIOS, so I don't have a copy of the original anywhere.

  Can you send me a copy please?

  Thnaks a lot

  Hi lostboy77,

  BIOS reflash is possible only to an authorized service. If the BIOS update has filed, you can do nothing. :(

  I know it's hard to hear, but you must understand that the update of the BIOS is always somewhat risky and if it wasn t flashed correctly, your laptop won't boot any more. So it of not so easy a Windows Update

  Anyway, here you can get a quick and professional help:

• Satellite A100 - 599: BIOS setup password problem!

  After that I decided to turn back to xp from vista, I used ghost do that but after reboot my laptop started giving causion Virus.

  HM, it's unfortunate, but unfortunately, you will need to contact an authorized service center and ask them for help because they are the one and only who could probably help you with your problem.

  As far as I know, the BIOS must be something hard that cannot be revoked by typing certain codes that must be presented by toshiba in the Japan. And since they don t give such secrets out to end users like us, you have to click [HERE: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_whitepaper.jsp?service=EU&WHITEPAPER_ID=0 000000871] and contact the nearest ASP in your country.

• Satellite Z930-N13 - SDS HDD password problem

  So I bought a 2nd hand Z930 (with no backup drivers/software) and setting up my password I ticked the box to replicate the password for the HARD drive.

  When it is restarted I see a flash error message up but he has not read in time.
  It restarted and asked the password - typed in - confirmed. Password HARD drive - not confirmed!
  So now, I can't have in the laptop. This can be corrected?

  I think I should buy a 256 gb SSD to replace and find all the drivers, and then reformat the laptop - that will work?

  I am struggling to find the retailer in the United Kingdom asking them to remove the BIOS password - think that the new SSD would anyway be a cheaper solution?

  Any help would be appreciated! I'm threadders - he only had 5 flippin minutes!

  Hello

  HARD drive password can be deleted if you do not know the password or the password is wrong.
  I have no idea of what happened during the game of password but the fact is that BIOS password and password HARD disk are not the same.
  Both can be set in the BIOS of THE separately.

  In case the HARD drive password cannot be deleted, the HARD drive would be useless

  > I think I should buy a 256 gb SSD to replace and find all the drivers, and then reformat the laptop - that will work?
  Yes, the HARD drive password does not affect the new hard drives or SSD drives but only the HARD disk that was attached to the laptop, while the password has been set.

  Do any of you know if crisis mode-recorery is available for laptop P200?
  What version of PHLAS16. EXE is required and in what mode the disk has to be create (native DOS mode)?

  I bought a USB external floppy drive and try the last days, but unsuccefully.

  Kind regards. Yves (France).

  Hi dude

  That s a pity :(
  The update of the BIOS is always a tricky process and there is always a small piece of risk.
  Usually, if the BIOS update has failed then you need a help of a technician of the ASP.

  The point is that you would need an update of the traditional BIOS to reflash the chip for the BIOS again.
  But the Toshiba driver page provides only the victory of the BIOS which can be updated only from Windows OS-based.

  Therefore, you will need to contact a local ASP which might help you.

  Dude good luck

• Satellite C855 - 12K - BIOS password incorrect supervisor

  Hello

  I own a Toshiba Satellite C855 - 12K and there is a problem with the BIOS supervisor password. Once I put the password, I was unable to access BIOS because it says that the password is incorrect.
  I am positively sure that the password im putting in is that I put in the BIOS before because I have used the same password to lock my HDD to 100%.

  Somewhere online I read that this BIOS version has a bug that makes it unable to remember the password.
  Is there any solution to this or I have to send my laptop for Toshiba?
  Operating system is windows 7 Professional-

  Unfortunately there is no magic solution. I can't comment on speculation on bug BIOS but if there is a problem with the service provider Toshiba BIOS must be informed about this.

  I recommend you contact the nearest Toshiba authorized service provider and ask for help. They can remove your password.

  This password protection is very serious characteristic safety and public forum is not the best place to write about the ways how it can be removed.

• Can satellite A100-999 - I recover the HDD password?

  Hi all

  I had a virus, so I formatted my computer, a Satellite A100-999. After I did, I was going to install Windows Vista, but I never could, because they ask my HDD password and I don't know what password it is that, I don't see it anywhere. My computer has been installed in the store, I only have a bootable disc, they gave me.

  My question is: How can I recover my HDD password? Is it possible? I can boot the system in any other way?

  Thank you!

  Sara

  It of not possible recovery or removes the HARD drive password. An ASP peut t for this too.

  Sorry, but in this case, you need a new HARD drive. There's no other way.

• Satellite C855D-135 - corrupt BIOS, black screen, keypad does not work

  Hello everyone.

  I had some problems with my laptop Toshiba Satellite C855D-135. I had to change my internal hard drive, so I decided to install windows 7 on it (I used to have windows 8 but do not have the CD and I could not find the license key sticker).
  So I went into the BIOS it go from UEFI to CSM, but something was not right and he seems to have corrupted the bios.
  I think I have it bricked, but some things still work.

  When I turn it on:
  -l' screen stays black (Yes, I tried it on another screen)
  -the keyboard is not working (the leds do not turn when I press the caps lock)
  -the fan works fine
  -cd player works fine
  -When I plug a USB key, it quickly flashes once, which seems to work
  -When I removed the memory bar, the computer has done is the series of beeps

  -J' tried to remove the battery, unplug and pressing the power button for centuries. (no luck)
  -J' tried to remove the CMOS battery to restore default bios. (no luck)
  -J' tried flashing the bios on a USB key, until I realized that the keyboard was not working and it was in vain.
  -J' tried to update the bios on a CD and it ran for a while, but nothing happened in the end. I tried to put these files on the CD:
  -IBIOS. BAT
  -C8610. FD (in the folder of Win8)
  -C610. FD (in the WIN7 folder)
  -J' tried to rename C8610. FD to the BIOS. FD

  I am out of ideas now.
  Could someone help me? Pretty please?
  I hope that this is not the motherboard that broke, coz I really didn't have the money to send it off to be repaired.

  In the history sounds very strange to me I never heard that that it would affect the BIOS to change the boot UEFI to MSC mode.
  In my opinion, there is a serious hardware problem. As you already linked to, it would probably be a motherboard failure.

  I recommend you to ask some technicians for hardware diagnostics to check the motherboard in order to be 100% sure about the fault.

  If you n t have enough money and the motherboard is really affected you could try to recover a part of 2nd hand

• Satellite C855D - not possible to enable virtualization in the BIOS

  I just bought a portable Satellite C855D with a processor AMD A8 - 4500M. The processor supports AMD - V, but it is disabled in the bios. It seems that Toshiba has removed this option from bios InsydeH20 Setup and it is not possible to activate this feature.

  There is no work around for this problem? I bought this laptop for my studies and it will be returned if it is not possible to run 64-bit virtualization.

  I doubt that you will be able to allow this future if it is not taken in charge by the BIOS

  However, you can always try to update the BIOS, where an update would be available
