Satellite L670 - 10 p BIOS flash error

Hello

Please I ask all the people here on this forum if you can help me with my situation.

I have a Satellite L670 - 10 p and I wanted to do a BIOS upgrade. I downloaded the update to the BIOS from the page drivers and ran the executable inside. The program launched flashing the BIOS at the time without even asking anything or display certain information.

The problem is that during the flashing, for some reason any the laptop off just - looks like it was overheating, because I had on my bed and didn't know that, maybe, the air cannot flow through the openings at the bottom.

Anyway, now I have a non-working computer. Whenever I want to turn it on, the fan starts a bit, and then it turns off after 1 or 2 seconds.

I also noticed, that if I plug in any USB key and turn everything on by pressing Fn + B, he wants to read something from the USB. I figured this out while trying to retrieve it using this BIOS Phoenix crisis recovery tool, but I had no luck.

Does anyone have any suggestion that I do? Surely - some BIOS recovery tool, built in Notepad, is trying to access the USB key and you are looking for something, but what I put on it?

> Does anyone have any suggestion that I do? Surely - some BIOS recovery tool, built in Notepad, is trying to access the USB key and you are looking for something, but what I put on it?

Well, the fact is that the module of the BIOS EPROM was not flashed properly. The update process was interrupted and that is why the laptop doesn't work anymore.

As far as I know, this kind of problems can be solved easily. To reflash the EPROM you need a particular crisis BIOS recovery tool.
Usually the authorized Toshiba maintainer in your country has access to these software and could help you solve the problem.

But I found a few comments in other threads on the corrupted BIOS problem and how to solve:

    You should get in touch with Toshiba ASP in your country.

    Maybe the crisis disk BIOS could contribute to reflash the ROM module otherwise it could be possible that module ROM is damaged and motherboard needs to be replaced.

  • Satellite L670-143 - new BIOS available, but what's new?

    Since yesterday I get a notice from Toshiba Bulletin Board that a new version of the BIOS is available, version 2.30 - WIN dated from 14/02/12.

    Given that I am trying hard and wonder if Toshiba allows users to change the Wifi card by default, I'm interested in what this BIOS update is needed for, if it wasn't for allowing users to install their preferred Wifi adapter I'm totally happy with my current version of BIOS and won't update something that brings something of new or improve anything.

    For this purpose: is their any page where people can find out what is new in a new update of the BIOS?
    Everything we always get is compressed form. Exe and prechewed message "this update of the Bios adds increased system functionality" on the page to download... but nothing concrete information.

    Hello Moose

    In one thing, I agree with you: don t change the BIOS if there is no former radical problem or the system in general. Many people here have reported on the various problems after BIOS update so if you are happy with your laptop and if everything goes perfectly don t change anything.

    Problem is that on the European download page you will find information on the update of the BIOS. In other words there is nothing new in the latest version of the BIOS.
    It is interesting that Toshiba US offers you this info so I m me where difference between offered things in US and Europe is to ask. I m not an expert for this stuff but there may be reasons relating to the protection of law or customers. I put t know.

    What you can do if you have a little time, is to visit the US page under http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/home.jsp > download, find a similar pattern with the same BIOS update and check if you can find useful information here.

    At the end once more: don t change anything, if everything works well. I have 2 years old Satellite P500 and use with BIOS and original recovery image. It works perfectly. Best Toshiba laptop I've had over the last 10 years.

  • Re: Satellite L670 - error when starting the BIOS update

    Using the Toshiba Service Station, he warned me an update. The update is called "Satellite L670/L675, Satellite Pro L670, update BIOS Version 1.50". When I install the update, it gives me this error: "there was an error, please check below the elements.» More than 150 BIOS version. Battery capacity more than 10%. AC is attached.

    I tried the update when my battery was 100% and the captain was connected, and yet I still get the error.

    Can someone help me with this?

    Hello

    Firstly I have to say if you don t have any problems with your computer forget this update. BIOS update is required only if you really have problems, otherwise I don't such updated risky.

    Anyway, if you download the update of the BIOS, you will need to extract all files of archive zip first before start you. Also, make sure that you are logged on as administrator.
