Satellite L750-201 - problem with update of the BIOS - preparation for Win 8

I have a L750-201 and is eligible for Windows 8. Currently Windows 7.
I thought that I would update to the BIOS (latest version 2.6) in the latest version (3.6), which has some relevant changes to Windows 8, I understand.

I have downloaded the BIOS update file and run. I had several options. One of them was to make the update of Windows, and another was to create a boot CD to do at STARTUP.
I created the CD and rebooted the machine with it. Everything seemed fine, but when the time came to Flash the bios I got the message about the battery must be greater than 10% and the power adapter is connected. If the BIOS update has refused to start.

The problem is the battery was 100% or almost that I had just fully charged it. The power adapter is and powered. So whence the utility to update the BIOS get his info that the dough was less than 10%?
I saw similar posts from other people, but the problem was usually that the battery was in fact less than 10% and that it was not charging. This isn't the case here.

No matter, I thought, I can update the other sense through the windows.
So I started the machine and took the Windows Flash utility. The system gave me the warning usual as planned and then rebooted the machine. He went directly in windows with the "Welcome" splash screen, and then stopped a few moments, then went to a black screen with just the pointer in the middle. I assumed it was something like the fairly active enjoy car light. However, after an age, nothing was. I could go back to the login screen by pressing the power button / standby machine and then turning it back on. My user has been locked, but I could shut down the computer and restart normally. Nothing serious happened. The machine starts very well and Windows does not normally, but BIOS remains unchanged.

Anyone have any idea how to get the update of the BIOS to work? Seems I have to bypass the battery check or why BIOS thinks a battery of 100% is less than 10%.

L750-201 satellite is part of the PSK6ME series.
I wonder where you found the BIOS v3.60 for this device?
The latest version of the BIOS seems to be v 2.80 - WIN

So from my point of view you try update BIOS INCORRECT.

  • Satellite Pro C660 bricked by update of the BIOS that failed

    My sister asked me to update his laptop (Toshiba Satellite Pro C660-16N; The part number PSC0ME-01S00SEN) of Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit) of Windows 8 (64-bit).
    So I did.

    Then I went UK from Toshiba Web site to check if there are any drivers I had to install for Windows 8. The only one was an update of the BIOS (for BIOS v1.70). I don't know what was the previous BIOS version number.

    So I run the update application in Windows 8. Phoenix WinPhlash Technologies starts and then in the middle of the update, everything freezes.

    The trackpad would not move the cursor or anything like that. I had no choice but to disconnect the phone from the wall and remove the battery. The laptop is not under warranty.

    Of course, now it won't turn. It will beep once when I press the power button, but the system does not light. A few minutes later, it looks like one long beep and two short beeps. It then keeps repeating this sequence every two minutes "one long beep, 2 short beeps".

    I google and read the site after the blog after the post on the forum, but nothing works. Links to the software offered on these forums/blogs/Web sites in french are usually dead, so I can't try what they suggest.

    The most common solution is the Phoenix crisis recovery tool. I managed to download v1.0.0.4 which is supposed to allow me to make a bootable USB key. The version of this tool that I downloaded is supposed to be for a Lenovo ThinkPad X 200. I have the correct BIOS.rom to C660 Pro Satellite (I renamed BIOS.wph and copied to the appropriate folder).

    I followed all the instructions, but it doesn't seem to work. Some sites say if it happens, I have the wrong version of phlash16.exe. Some other sites say that HP Boot Disk USB Utility should be used, but I don't know how to use it.

    What I really need, is a definitive step by step foolproof guide to know what to do, with links to the files/tools to use for this model of laptop. I will follow this blindly (which I don't really understand what makes each step, I just do it with no understanding,) so if anyone can help me with this, please write a guide like an idiot!

    If anyone can help me with this, I appreciate it. I'm really in a difficult situation - I can't really afford to pay a Toshiba ASP to fix it, and I can't afford a new laptop certainly. But I also couldn't bring myself to tell my sister, ' it's broken, deal!

    Thanks in advance.

  • Updates to the BIOS/driver for Windows 7?

    I bought my desktop HP Pavilion Elite m9152p on computer a year ago and I had a few problems at the start.  I bought a retail upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate x 64 and I did a clean install, but it was the same thing before on Vista Ultimate x 64.  Sometimes when I turn on my PC, it won't really do anything--sometimes I hear a beep POST, but there is nothing displayed on screen.  I turn my PC off, wait a minute or two and try to feed it upwards.  If it doesn't, I just repeat until it finally works.  Now my PC will hang on to the blue HP bios screen and just stay there.  The version of the bios on the screen is v5.25 and drivers of HP Support & shows a v5.36 available for download, but it will not install on my Windows 7 operating system.  I tried to run it in Windows Vista SP2 compatibility mode, but nothing helped.  I'm NOT GOING to restore my PC to Vista using my recovery disks, or with the help of my Vista Ultimate retail discs just to install a BIOS update day and then reformat/reinstall Windows 7 again.

    Is there a way to run the updates to the BIOS 'Vista' only and other drivers on my Windows 7 computer?  HP will release updated drivers Windows 7-compatible and updates soon

    While I don't guarantee it not works - Vidya had the right idea, but you need a little more information.

    Start running the softpaq, go beyond the opening screen with details, etc., then when it you ask to perform the update, stop (but do not close the screen).

    go to BACK - using the Administrator option

    type the following command

    CD folder

    find a folder with the AFUWIN. File EXE and CHDIR to the name of the temp folder

    ex: dir/s AFUWIN. EXE

    then

    CHDIR tempfoldername

    Then, perform the AFUWIN update with the information behind it:

    AFUWIN BEN5.32/b/p/c

    It should finish and then you can restart after you close the Softpaq.

    No guarantee that it will solve your problem-, but which should enable the BIOS update to run.

  • Satellite 5100/201: problem with the video card or overheating?

    HY,

    I have problems with video on a 5100/201 Satellite. It seems that when I press the left side above the graphics card or press a key on the keyboard on this side, the screen begins to be scrambled and vertical lines appear. To end Windows XP resets giving a critical error on the device and the video goes to 640 x 480. Same thing happens when you run Linux Suse 9.0.

    My question is what is the cause: map graphic damaged or overheating due to the fan not as effective as originally (my laptop is nearly two years old. Do you have someone be able to find the cause and solved the problem, also with the assistance of Toshiba?
    Any help welcome.

    Hello

    I think the problem on your laptop depends on the fan.

    A colleague on mine has a 5100-603 and had similar problems.

    The Station changed the fan.

  • Satellite L750-1NG - impossible to get into the BIOS

    Hello team,

    I've recently updated my Toshiba BIOS of v3.0 to v3.6 and I am not currently able to access BIOS. I don't see a splash or the other screen. Except that my computer works very well. I have a Satellite L750-1NG and running Windows 7.

    Hello

    Have you tried to press F2, immediately after the laptop was turned on?
    Press F2 repeatedly in the line.

    Otherwise I recommend starting the utility HWSetup from Toshiba. (All programs-> Toshiba-> Utilities-> HWsetup)
    Here you can change some settings of the BIOS like him setting the Standard (default).
    I think you'll need spend the quick start the normal start because you said that you can not see the Toshiba start screen.

    But you have two options at this point.

    You can reinstall Windows 10 or you can contact the HP Support (assuming you are still under warranty).

    Hello

    I have a question about the use of my Touch Pad of Toshiba Satellite A350/07F - laptop HNX.

    It turns out that after some time the search will stop automatically and then I have to restart my laptop so he could start again. It also stops to scroll down if I keep my cell blocked for an hour or two. No idea how to change the settigs so that this does not happen.

    Thank you guys.

    AFAIK for scrolling on touchpad it will be activated virtual bar on the right side of the touchpad.
    Try to check this in mice advanced settings where you can set all this. Disable this option and try to activate again.

    On my Satellite A300, it works fine.

    I did recently on my HP ProBook 450 G2 Kubuntu Linux 15.10 running.

    A new version of the BIOS (01.16 Rev.A 1 December 2015) was available, but for Windows only.

    What I had to do to install the BIOS under Linux:

    * Download the exe file (for example: sp74048.exe): this is an archive

    * unpack with 7zip

    * go to my laptop configuration: restart, press [ESC] >

    Configuration of the BIOS F10 > MAIN > system update BIOS > BIOS update using local media

    * read the instructions:

    "Place the system on a FAT32 partition no BIOS BIN file more

    on the system or on a removable USB hard drive

    under the folder "Hewlett-Packard\BIOS\New.

    Then, add or verify that the HP Bios update utility (HpBiosUpdate.efi)

    and the signature file (HpBiosUpdate.s12) are

    on the same partition FAT32 under

    the path to the following folder: "Hewlett-Packard\BIOSUpdate. »

    * Take a flash drive, create the folder ""Hewlett-Packard\BIOS\ " "

    copy the whole folder "BIOSUpdate" since the original installation file for her

    create the "New" folder and copy the bin on it (in my case "M74_0116.bin")

    * If at the end, the flash drive looks like this:

    \---Hewlett-Packard

    + - BIOS

    | \---New

    |      Mxx_xxxx. bin

    |

    \---BIOSUpdate

    all files here

    * place the flash drive in the laptop and "BIOS update using local media" hit the button [I accept] below "the system BIOS will be updated immediately.'." "

    Then update the BIOS HP appears saying: the system BIOS is updated day. > writing new BIOS Image. > Veryfying new BIOS Image. > restart.

    Fact.

    It is really beyond me why HP does not provide a simple archive with the appropriate directory structure and a readme file so that anyone could update the BIOS regardless of operating system.

    Warning: I'm just an average Linux user. This procedure worked for me, but before use, you must consider the risks for yourself. You SHOULD know what you're doing.

    I have a Satellite Pro S200 and the same problem was with my camera. It s is not a hardware problem, it s more a driver related issue No. So, the best thing you can do is update your bios and keep your drivers up-to-date. Just check the download Drivers Toshiba site and make sure you have the latest drivers installed.
