• Satellite Pro A120: Need to update the BIOS after upgrade CPU

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A120 and I need to update the bios of a change in cpu cause.
  The laptop works very well, but for some reason any with the new processor fan runs always full.

  A lot, I searched but found nothing.
  The model number is PSAC1E-0QL04CG3 of ideas where I can find the bios?

  THX in advance,
  John

  Hello

  First of all: update BIOS doesn t help you.
  Why do you think that BIOS update should help reduce the activity of fan?

  I guess that your new processor is faster. Right?
  So it offers more performance and this leads to higher heat dissipation... so finally the CPU must be cooled and this can be done only if the cooling module would turn faster you agree with me?

  By the way: the update of the BIOS is on the page of the Toshiba UE driver. Since the satellite Pro A120 is very old series, you will need to search for drivers in area Archive (Type of product-> Archive)

• Satellite Pro A300-257 while flashing the BIOS

  Hello

  I have a dilemma. I recently installed windows 7 on my laptop of girlfriends who is a Toshiba Satellite Pro A300-257, everything went well until I tried to update the Bios. I followed all instructions on the toshiba site had to put the model number in to get good bios double checked and triple checked before running the program, but when I ran the system crashed to halfway through the closed system update and now it wont even boot lights are on cd player is ROAR a few stays on black screen.

  I read many forums and it seems im not the only one with this problem.
  I just got the phone to toshiba and they say im not covered because I does not you can call and go through it with them on the phone, even if at no time did he tell me to do that I followed the instructions of there Web site.
  I also confirmed with them that I used the correct bios but they say that they are unable to prove that and I can put in the wrong information that I did not.

  In my view, there is a program that will allow me to boot from the cd so I don't have to go out and buy a reader external floppy to Flash the bios, I think that his winflash. Unfortunately, all I can find is the executable program on there website which im guessing will not start work.
  Anyone know where I can find the prog to update the bios and the bios file so I can create a cd bootable to Flash the bios.

  Any help will be appreciated with gratitude

  Thank you very much

  Hi mate

  I m afraid there is no alternative to reflash the BIOS to the traditional version of BIOS who can start the BIOS updated using an external USB drive and the floppy disk.

  The European driver Toshiba page contains only the BIOS Win-based that can be updated when the windows operating system. The traditional BIOS is not available for download. Only authorized service partners have access to this version of BIOS and that's why I don t see any alternative as to get in touch with the guys and to ask for help.

• Satellite L300 - 20 d - after updating the BIOS, that it does not start now

  Hello

  I bought my wife a Toshiba L300 - 20 d (PSLB8E-0CK00YEN). It came with loaded Vista, which it cannot do.

  My grandson offered also to sort. He has installed a new hard drive, loaded with XP and managed to get almost all the drivers working except the WiFi.

  After spending many hours, he decided to update the bios of v1.8 to v1.9. Since it does not start... It happens with the Toshba screen, start windows normally, then it attempts to load windows, flashing and start the cycle al.

  He has tried default settings, tried a XP disk, setting on the disk, nothing. He just does the same thing in safe mode.

  Any suggestions will be appreciated

  Concerning

  Keith

  Hello

  The wireless network card is enabled with the hardware switch on the computer laptop and FN + F8? Check this box!

  Additionally, make sure that the latest driver on the Toshiba site is installed, and check the settings of the wireless network adapter TCP/IP.

  Moreover a description that is more accurate than the WiFi works not would be very appreciated.

  Good bye

• Satellite A100 - 803 (PSAANE) - Trouble updating the BIOS in Vista

  Hello

  I tried to update the BIOS on my laptop today. After the installation of the new BIOS, restarted the pc and then it showed a black screen with white display text material in the machine.

  In the end, it says something about a corrupt CMOS. She said press F1 to default or F2 for Setup.

  I pressed F1.

  The thing is that I don't know if it worked. I used a program to display the bios version and it seems up to date, but the CMOS thing me freaked out.

  I met all of the planned maneuvers (AC adapter / CC plugged etc.) except in startup mode. I assumed that the boot mode is currently in the standard vista desktop.

  * What is this thing of startup mode? * It's driving me crazy. I searched the forums, google and nothing. How can I get the computer to "boot mode and not recovery mode" as the tutorial says.

  I intend to reinstall the BIOS as soon as I know how to enter in the boot mode.

  I think that this announcement has already answered in this thread:
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums//message.jspa?MessageID=122727#122727

  You're talking about the traditional BIOS update, but the fact is that on the Toshiba driver page you will find ONLY the base BIOS update windows.
  All new BIOS updates are versions of WIN and can be updated only running a Windows operating system.

  In the BIOS, the package should be unzipped everything first, and then an .exe file must be run.

  That s all ;)

• Satellite A-C50-K9K - after updating the BIOS, cooling fan is very loud

  Gas station proposed to update the BIOS. 1.00 to 1.30. After updating the cooling system is 90% of the time. Load the default settings BIOS do not change.

  No backup of the BIOS. Is it possible to download BIOS 1.00 or solve this problem?

  The downgrade of the BIOS is not possible because you n t have the first version of BIOS and even if you get the 1.0 version of BIOS, the BIOS update procedure is not possible because the newer version is already flashed.

  But I recommend you set the method in Windows to optimize power or better management the cooling battery life

  + Control Panel--> Power Options--> change the parameters of plan--> change power avancΘs--> TOSHIBA Power Saver Settings--> cooling method.

  Hello

  I have two questions:

  1. I recently updated my bios version of laptops to 2.10 and replaced the hard drive with an SSD.
  However, it seems that I can't enter the BIOS more.

  I tried several buttons, but it just won't let me get bios of the laptop more.
  Which button to use to access the BIOS?

  2. I want to upgrade the standard amount of memory from 4 GB to 8 GB.
  Are there recommended RAM sets should I use because of compatibility issues?

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  Kind regards.

  To access the BIOS press F2 at the beginning of the order started immediately after you have switched on the device, press F2 (press several times on the line)

• Satellite 2410-303-display flashing, update the BIOS

  HY!

  I am the owner of the Satellite 2410-303 series. Display does not work very well. I do not know it is because of drivers (even me, I installed the drivers by default) or maybe it's because the LCD screen. Maybe poor contact or something like that? I don't want to take my turn for the service center more because they don't know how to solve the problem. Only what they say is: «I'm sorry, but you have to buy a new...» »

  In speaking of the bios it is 1.20 in 2002. I want to download 1.40 (think it's most recent) but do not know where to download... Please help because this is my first tour & I want to revive his soul... THX.

  Hello

  I always thought that this forum is serious, but you try to make us laugh reading your ad.

  Sorry, but your comment about service is for me really ridiculous. Do you really think that all the issues can be fixed and nothing should be exchanged? I respect your opinion, but I think you're not qualified to talk about. Or maybe you're a technician material. If so, then I feel sorry for my comment.

  Anyway, if you have a display problem trying to connect to external monitor and see exactly what is happening. It will be interesting to know how starts flickering.

• Satellite P100 PSPAD: could not update the BIOS 3.8 and a poor video performance

  Hello

  I have a video performance of bad quality on my machine as well as the fan power of the issues.

  To add to my frustration the WinPhlash program included in the BIOS version 3.8 empty out trying to flash which gives a PHLASHNT. SYS failed to load the message with different error codes (codes 5 and 147 depending if I launch the exe, as it is extracted from the ZIP, or run the files extracted independently).

  I checked all permissionings on the record and I definitely full control - but still a generic message of "check your accounts, if you do not have permissions please log in again!" is displayed.

  help with my problem of BIOS would be apreciated.

• error when updating the BIOS

  I got a HP Pavilion a1542n. So I installed XP SP3, which is done and was trying to install drivers and other things. I went to hp.com, getting to where I can * beep * to this screen to select the Safe Mode, Normal Mode again and again and again.
  Then I tried to reinstall XP, but he couldn't find any partition to install.
  I think that it is a motherboard problem. What can I do, guys?

  Maybe a bad BIOS flash. What version of BIOs you have and which version go you to?

  Have you updated running as ADMINISTRATOR?

  Can also be bad memory.

• Satellite A110 - update the BIOS for Windows 7?

  Hello. I found two drivers support page to your versions of BIOS for my Toshiba Satellite A110:
  01/21/09
  Update the BIOS
  Toshiba Windows Vista 32 bit 5, 40 - WIN World Wide
  01/21/09
  Update the BIOS
  Toshiba OS independent 2, 00 - WIN World Wide

  In 'other info' page on first bios there is a warning that this version is only for windows vista, and on the second page 'other info' he warns, that this version is not compatible for notebook computers equipped with Windows Vista.
  My first question is what this means? If I have OS Toshiba idependent 2.0 BIOS will not install Vista?

  My second and more important question is what version of bios should I install if I now use WINDOWS 7 32 bit?

  Hello

  > My first question is what this means? If I have OS Toshiba idependent 2.0 BIOS will not install Vista?
  You should be able to install Vista using BISO 2.0 but maybe your laptop will generate some questions
  So you need to update the BIOS to 5, 40 - WIN version if you want to use Vista OS.

  If you want to use Win 7 on your laptop then you must first install the Win 7 OS and then you should check out how Windows 7 is running
