• Satellite U400 - after the BIOS update I can't start Windows

  I have laptop Toshiba Satellite U400, PSU44E and Win XP. After you have installed the new BIOS v. 3, 80-WIN32, it is not possible to start Windows, it always ends in restart. It is also not possible to reinstall Winsdows, as it always ends with the blue screen.

  Any help or suggestion?
  How can I install back my backup BIOS BACK?

  Hello

  Did you really choose the good BIOS for your laptop? Because on the Toshiba site Web are different models U400 has so you choose for PSU44E BIOS on Toshiba page?

  After the BIOS, you should load the default settings in the BIOS.
  Did you check that?

  A downgrade from the BIOS is not possible. This is possible only from an authorized service provider. So, you should contact them and ask a technician for help. I m sure they will help you. ;)

• Satellite A300 - after the BIOS update I can not install two OS

  Hello everyone:

  I bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite A300-247 with Windows Vista Home Premium.

  Then I formatted it and divided the hard (320 GB) into 6 partitions and installed Windows Vista and Windows XP on drive C to drive D after having changed the SATA controller mode in the BIOS for compatibility. The computer worked well with 2 operating systems. However, when I updated the BIOS to version 1.9, two operating systems stop working and one of them can be installed: XP can be installed when SATA controller mode is placed on compatibility and Vista can be installed only when the SATA is changed to AHCI.

  Is there is no explanation of what past? And can I install operating systems 2 together again?

  Thank you

  Hello

  First of all, I doubt that this has something to do with the BIOS update. I think that after the BIOS update HARD drive mode has been changed from AHCI to compatibility and therefore the OS didn't start.

  Anyway, in compatibility mode you can install Vista and XP without the SATA drivers. This should t be a problem.

  But do you know the difference between compatibility and AHCI? AHCI mode is faster and therefore I would recommend this mode.
  Like you said Vista you can already install in AHCI mode and for XP, you need Intel Storage Manager. This package includes the SATA drivers you need and here is a step by step guide to use these drivers:

  Last but not least, you can install 2 OS. You can do what you want! ;)

• Satellite L300 - after the BIOS update I have a black screen

  Welcome! I have a big problem.

  I improve my Satellite L300 BIOS to the old version that I download on the official website of Toshiba. I turn on the update program and after about minute, the system will shoot down and on the screen I see black screen only. The light on the drive flashes green and the led in the DVD-ROM flashes orange. I have no idea what's going on.

  Please help me!

  Hello

  It sounds like this during the update of the BIOS, that something was going wrong. I think that the ROM module must be reflashed or in the worst cases, the motherboard should be replaced.

  In any case, you should contact an ASP for help. Technicians can try to reflash the ROM module and solve this problem.
  If you don't know where is the nearest ASP, you can search on the Toshiba site:

• Satellite A30 - after the BIOS update I can not install any OS

  Hey everybody

  I have a problem with my laptop Toshiba Satellite A30 PSA33E. I update my old BIOS and 1.7 and now I have a problem: I can not install any OS on my PC because it stops whenever I try to install. After 50 tests, I installed a Windows SP2, but my PC turns off always.

  My CPU is at 100% after I launch mozilla so I guess my problem is the BIOS. I try to install v1.8 BIOS and is not working and I get an error (not compatible with the installed BIOS)

  Where can I find the 1.3, 1.4, 1.5 ROM BIOS? Can someone help me please?
  THX

  The latest version of the BIOS should not cause this kind of thing. Have reset you the BIOS to its default settings?

  Have you checked the CPU radiator for an accumulation of dust? A can of compressed Air can help remove dust through the vents.

  What was the reason that you updated the BIOS, in the first place? Had previous problems with the system?

• Re: Satellite Pro A200 - black screen after the BIOS screen

  Hello
  I'm new to the forum and have a big problem. So, any help is welcome and appreciated.

  My Satellite Pro A200 turns black after the BIOS screen and a black screen with a blinking cursor. Also just as the screen goes black a beep can be heard which shows windows boot.
  I can access the toshiba Setup screen but not the installation of security mode.

  Kind regards

  Hello

  You wrote that you can access the BIOS, but have you checked if the HARD drive is recognized properly? Perhaps because the computer cannot start HDD isn't recognized then you should check this.

  If the HARD drive is recognized, I would try a Toshiba Recovery disk recovery facility. It seems that Windows isn't able to start and if you reinstall the whole system should help get rid me of this. Go to the start menu and select the CD/DVD drive as a boot device.

  Check this box!

• Satellite L300-1 has 3 - after the BIOS update, I get a BSOD

  I have a Satellite L300 1A 3 MODEL PSLB8E. I decided to update the version of the BIOS, thinking that he can resolve my issue of ethernet controller.

  But after the update, my laptop goes on infinite blue screen of death. How can I recover from this injury?

  Can someone please help.

  Hello

  Did you choose the good BIOS update for your model? Was it for Satellite L300 PSLB8E?

  What code you get BSOD?

  After the BIOS update you must always load the default settings. Maybe a bad BIOS setting is causing this BSOD.

• NB200 does not start after the bios - screen black screen with blinking cursor

  Hello

  I was using the laptop as usual when I think there may have been a virus activity - reason I say that is that my anti-virus closed unexpectedly. I couldn't restart programs files.

  I restarted the laptop.

  After the bios menu will I get a blank screen with a blinking cursor - windows does not start.

  I did the following:
  (1) create a USB bootable with Recovery Console window XP - boot with this i can see three drives C:, D: as SDA? I can see the content of these disks, so it seems that my HD works. I ran a fixmbr and fixboot, but this has not solved the problem.
  (2) create a Kaspersky bootable USB virus scan - ran it without problem - he found a few question (not on the disk boot sector) I've fixed.

  An option was to copy files from the laptop and then start it in recovery mode - so Itried to run the phone into recovery mode hold down the 0 key at startup - the bottom of the screen then displays * HDD Recovery mode * and nothing happens.

  Any help - other options would be greatly appreciated.

  My 1 year of that guarantee has expired a few months back so can't send in for repair.

  Thank you

  Hello

  I doubt that it is a virus.
  Seems the file system is damaged on the HARD drive and this is the reason why the laptop does not start until it could also be a partition of HARD disk malfunction.

  Try this; Turn on the unit, press F8, and then check if you have the laptop repair.
  If this is not possible, then you will need to reinstall new OS.

  Here you can order a recovery disc:

  Of course you will need an external USB CD/DVD drive

• Satellite A500-138 60 fps instead of 99 fps after the BIOS update.

  Hello

  Seems the CPU and GPU don t run full implementation after the BIOS update.
  Any performance CPU/GPU leads to lower the heat dissipation and this means that the cooling module does not need to execute quickly and very often.

  Check to see if you can change an option is the BIOS.
  You can also try to update a graphics driver and could control Windows 7 power management.
  Power management settings 7 victory could affect CPU and GPU performance to save battery power and reduce the heat dissipation.

• Satellite A10 dies after the power LED blink

  Hello

  I have a problem with the power supply of my Toshiba Satellite A10. Sometimes, after the computer sat for some time, I have a problem with the power. The "plugged power cable" - LED will start to blink and shortly after, the computer just dies.

  It can also have the time to go into a lower energy state before he does. When it happened once, it will most likely happen also when I restart the computer, but after a much shorter time. WXP won't even have time to start. If I stop to select the source of start-up, the problem will occur anyway, this isn't the software. It should also be noticed that when the computer is not turned off, the 'smart power' - is on correctly.

  I know that my battery is not very good. Completely loaded, the computer can run for maybe 3 minutes with only the battery. I know that I must have a battery connected, even if I use the power cable, but this occurs even when the mine problem. The battery would be pretty bad not even allow me to use the computer with a cable?

  It should be added, that sometimes I can use the computer for long periods of time without this problem to happen. I also have a problem with the battery not being not properly in physical contact with the pins of the computer, but this isn't the problem here, because I have the same problem with the battery removed and me holding the battery in place.

  Thank you for your help.

  Hello

  You description is very long and detailed and it of still not easy to say what's wrong.
  Usually, the DC-In witness lights up green when DC is provided FRO the AC current. If the output voltage of the adapter is abnormal or if power outages, this indicator flashes orange.

  So I think that is your AC adapter malfunctions or there is something wrong with the electronic power supply on the motherboard.

• Satellite A200 (PSAE0C-AH308C) - after the BIOS black screen update

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite (model No. A200; Part No. PSAE0C - AH308C) and to install Windows XP on a version already corrupted Vista (which had 4 partitions, that have been corrected, erased, then reformatted in a solid block). Now, I have installed all the appropriate drivers off Toshiba Canada support site...

  Everything worked, but I wanted to see in Windows (since I just got this computer) if everything was in place and working normally until I installed Ubuntu... Then I did the update to the BIOS flash. The program is supported in two formats, one for Vista and one for XP... for XP has a more high at 5.20 and Vista BIOS version the 1.80 revision of BIOS... that are marked as being updated by the Toshiba site. I opted to download the latest version of the BIOS.

  Things got ugly as soon as I unzipped the self-extracting program. First of all he said he could not find a .dll file (even if it is clear from there), so that seemed as if it started to Flash the BIOS but has not finished (it was just what happened when I opened the program)... I think he got to the ROM of compensation but did not have any code in there... Windows attempted to close the program because he did not respond, and I tried to take the program... had the same .dll error, but this time, the screen of the program was just gray...

  Given that this program is not Flash the BIOS unless the user selects the button "Flash BIOS", I have reason to believe that it was a bug in the program, or a combination of it and Windows comes to interfere (no program were running at the time, while he was supposed to be a dedicated flash). I can only flash in the Win.

  Now, I rebooted the computer, twice... the screen turns black, the HARD disc spins, the DVD drive has done his usual clicking sound when the computer starts, but it seems to stop as there is no BIOS entact.

  Can I replace the BIOS chip? There is no way for me to access the BIOS at all.

  Thanks for any help on this

  Hello

  Unfortunately, the BIOS update has failed and now BIOS is damaged. For this reason, you cannot start and use your laptop. I agree with Luke. Please contact nearest Toshiba authorized maintainer and ask for help. Talk with them and I am sure that you will find the best solution to this problem.

  Satellite A200 is quite long on the market and it is hard to believe that updating the BIOS on the Canadian page may have a bug. All updates are tested and used by millions of users and service providers. If there is something wrong, I do not believe that this update will be available on the page of public support.

  In any case, contact the nearest service provider and explain the situation. Believe me this is the best thing you can do now.

  Good luck!

• Satellite L500D PSLK0A does not start after the Bios Update

  I've had trouble with an "(ne répond pas) error ' while I was on IE8, so I looked up a few forums that all suggested I go to the manufacturers website and update the drivers for my computer."

  So I logged on the site of Toshiba Australia, put in all my details model numbers and a list of updates came.
  Great, I thought.

  1 was an upgrade of the Bios, so I clicked on the link and let the machine do its thing.
  Now I can't start my machine.

  How can I fix it? Can I downgrade my bios to what it was?

  Thank you

  Hello

  If your laptop isn't the answer (I mean you won't see anything on the screen) then this means that your updates to the BIOS in the wrong way.
  This means the module ROM BIOS was flashed note correctly.

  In this case, you will need professional help to an ASP in your country.

  Good luck

• Satellite L350 - does not start after the BIOS update

  Hello

  I recently (yesterday) downloaded the latest version of bios update dated dated 25/02/10 2: 20 - WIN, after download and does run the software from the laptop immediately stopped working and stop. I am now no longer able to boot up the laptop at all, all I get is the power light on and the hard disk light flashes, I hear the spinning CD/DVD drive, but what is not screen anything, I don't think this is the start.

  Is there a way to fix this without taking it to a store/engineer, BIOS recovery?

  The laptop is a Satellite L350, I opened the laptop to try to reset the CMOS by removing the card mother battery (not sure if it would have helped), but as much as I know it doesn't have an or I'm not.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  Andy

  Hi Andy,.

  Hmm... If the BIOS update failed, you can't do anything because only an authorized service provider has professional diagnostic and recovery tools to redo an update.

  So in my opinion, you must contact a service provider authorized in your country. Get in touch with the guy and ask for help. They will tell you what to do now.

  Here is their list:

  Good luck! :)
