  HI Yves,

  Unfortunately, if the BIOS update procedure does not work (or fill), then it is likely that the BIOS in the CMOS chip had been corrupt and without it, you will not be able to boot your laptop to fix the problem.

  It will be necessary to bring (or send) your laptop to a repairer authorized to have reflashed BIOS.

  Kind regards

• Dead by Satellite A500-1pj after involuntary Bios Update

  Hello world

  A friend of mine bought a new PC laptop toshiba Satellite A500-1pj a month ago. Windows 7 pro 64-bit pre-installed.
  Also preinstalled: support software toshiba who - correctly - configured search automatically and installs updates and critical fixes.

  Last Sunday this wonderful software recommended an update 'critical' to my friend - she's no expert but a user experienced who can make the difference between an update of the bios (and avoid this!) and a security patch, she agreed to download and install what she believed to be a security update.

  Sure, she gave permission to an update of the bios being installed. During the process of updating the machine froze completely. She waited for three hours and then pulled the plug. Guess what: the machine is now completely gone. Does not display without fan, simply nothing.

  Hotline support Toshiba told him that his cell two weeks old is not under warranty because this warranty does not cover software 'problems and the Bios updates are software upgrades.

  The company repair says a repair will very probably equal to buy a new laptop so here we are...

  My questions:

  (1) the laptop is a Satellite A500-1pj (PSAR9E-01M00QGR) fitted to a phoenix UEFI bios (bios toshiba/phoenix, 1.1.26 update tool is pretty radical - no warning at all! he tried to update me my computer dell laptop, lucky!).
  I found some posts on older machines that can be reflashed using a usb disk, hot spare bios back and a combination of keys (Fn + B or Fn + F...). is it possible to do this with a UEFI bios too?

  (2) anyone out there have the same problem?

  (3) any chance of toshiba help us with that issue and prevent others from making the same mistake to understand at least a warning in their bios updates?

  Thanks for your help!

  Tony

  I doubt that
  I think that the module ROM BIOS was flashed incorrectly (don't know why) and therefore you can not start the laptop.
  This can happen for different reasons, maybe that the update process was interrupted due to a process running in the background, etc.

  In order to solve this problem, the ROM module must be flashed again using a special crisis disk BIOS... that's all.

  The update of the BIOS is always a sensitive procedure but if everything was done correctly, then update the BIOS must successfully complete.

  I found this very interesting and useful to Toshiba and HowTo doc correctly updated the BIOS!

  Hello

  Why BIOS put a password automatically after the update?

• Satellite A210-16f - after the BIOS update pops up a window with password

  Hello

  I tried to update the BIOS on my Toshiba Satellite A210. I downloaded an update from the official site of Toshiba, and then I did everything according to the instructions.
  I've updated the BIOS under Windows.
  Update at the end, a massage "updated successfully" appeared and I just need turn on the computer again.
  So I did, and there was a problem.

  When I turn on my computer now, it shows me a blue window with a password. I don't know password.
  Maybe you know how to disable the password or you know some passwords for Toshiba which corresponding?

  Toshiba doesn t have a sort of universal password, and unfortunately, no one here can help you with this problem.
  I just hope that you have downloaded the good BIOS upgrade for your laptop model.

  The password can be removed by the Toshiba service provider. They can do it in 15 minutes.
  Sorry, but buddy I'm afraid there is nothing you can do about it.

  It seems that something was wrong during the update of the BIOS, and so the laptop won't turn on.
  I'm afraid that you can't do anything else as to contact the local ASP m!

  The local ASP technician must check the device and possibly it might update the BIOS using a special BIOS and the special procedure.

• 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.

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

  Hello!

  Before I have a little problem with my fan, but I do it with the BIOS update. His work!

  Now, I have a little problem of different...

  Its make me crazy...

  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 P200 - after the BIOS update I can't start the machine

• Tecra 8000 does not start after the BIOS update

  From one day to the other does not start my Tecra 8000 (400 MHz/256 MB BIOS 9.30 for years). After start-up, the disc starts to turn, but the screen including the backlight remains completely black, without red logo TOSHIBA BIOS is not accessible.

  I got a new mainboard on stock, so I replaced it, and it worked. Unfortunately now my WLAN card now did not work properly. I tried several settings of the BIOS with no results, so I decided to do an update of the BIOS from 7.50 to 9: 30. After the upgrade, I get the message "ROM WRITE successful, utility completed. LEADER BIOS: Tecra8000 v 9,30 ". Because what either kept silent, I pressed the power button to restart and heard a long and many short beeps (endless). I could interrupt what pressing the powerbutton for 5s.

  After turning on again I have the same problem as described in the first line :-( I can't get into the BIOS, but I can again update (with pressed F12). Once again these beeps.

  What to do with these beeps after average BIOS update? I replaced the MoBo connector LED with pension. Processor, memory, keyboard and HD has remained the same. So, before I start disassembling the machine, please notify, your help is very appreciated.

  Hello Joachim

  I'm not a technician and don t know what the beeps but I am afraid that the BIOS chip is damaged. Because of this, the unit is completely dead. Sorry, but I really don t believe you can do anything. Maybe the new motherboard again :(

• Satellite L755 after error - BIOS update service is not a warranty case

  The problem began when Toshiba Tempro program notified me that I need to update bios for my laptop Satellite 755. I have downloaded the file to the Toshiba site, followed all the instructions. The process - there was error check. Tried twice. The same result. Decided to not update at all.

  But after that the next reboot of the laptop has not started. Black screen, cooler works like breathing.
  After searching the Internet I found there are hundreds of people with the same question. Which of course was not my fault.

  As there is no solution for this - the only way was to send the Toshiba laptop service.
  I wrote them a letter before, provided all the details, what happened. Also asked if it would be covered by the warranty. My laptop is still on warranty, purchased just half a year ago.
  Received an email from to SAV (Damax AG), I have to send my laptop and that * it's still on warranty *.

  Without any hesitation I sent them my laptop.

  After several days, I received a note that:
  1. it is not a case of warranty I was updating the BIOS. Come on guys, I wrote it you before I sent the laptop!
  2. for the repair of motherboard, I need to pay 1350 (!) swiss francs (the price for the new laptop is about 600 Swiss francs!).
  3. I can refuse the repair, but in this case, I still have to pay 100 Swiss francs for diagnostics.
  Why the hell should I pay for the diagnosis, even if the laptop is still on warranty + it was pretty clear what the problem was, like many people in the face of that, and Toshiba service for sure shoud be aware of this problem.

  What could advise you in this situation?
  These are the sons of the same question. I'm sure this is the problem on the side of development of Toshiba.

  Also, there are many cases that people have written that it is covered by the guarantee - which was one of the reasons that I sent him. For example here:
  http://www.theeldergeek.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=45500
  The guy writes: + "guarantee-box...". 0, no data not deleted, everything goes well =) ' + '.
  How even a service covers it - the other is not?

  Also, I read the guarantee agreement - I have found no info that this case is not coverable.
  Really frustrated by all this, I am a student, and of course I don't have extra 1350 francs to pay for it.
  Also, I'm really screwed as it has research papers which I can not finish normally like all my data on the HARD drive.

  Hello

  Please don t get me wrong, but I don't really know what you want to read here. It is user in the forum and here you will not find an official statement here. All you can do here is to share your experience with others who have the same problem.

  I put t know how many services are listed for your country, but please try to communicate with other services and see if they will tell you the same thing or maybe there's something now about this BIOS problem.

  If you have more information, please report it here. It may be useful for other owners of L755.

• Satellite L50-A-160 does not start after the Bios Update

  Hi, first of all, this is first post.

  I have 2 satellite L50-A-160 with bios 1.1

  Problem: seems to go to sleep after a few minutes, even working on them (even with both)

  So, I found an updated version 1.9, downloaded and running on one of the laptops. the biosupdate tool found matching the BIOS and a race.
  In the middle of flashing, he fell asleep. turned on and not start. What can I do? Recovery options? I guess the same thing will happen with the other too...

  What is the problem with these computers?

  Besides; very poor battery, always shows 0% available and not charging...
  Does anyone have a solution?

  Best regards
  -always in the hope.
  GT

  Have you tried to change in Power Options?

  See screenshot and try to change the ones I marked (it can refresh the settings, just change the values) and see if this solves the problem.

  

  and for the other laptop with no boot, a laptop sleep by updating the bios will surely mess it.

  what I don't understand is why your sleep laptop BIOS update, as far as I know the sleep settings is active then on windows (since this is controlled by windows)
  He does not sleep while in the BIOS you leave 1 year, sleep settings active only after loading windows.

  have you tried to check the time of processor for your laptop? Maybe its overheating causing auto-off

• Satellite L300D - does not load after the BIOS update

  I had to update my bios & it seems that that wrong has been downloaded about 3% by installing the laptop just die and not to revert to.

  There is no lights & there is no noise from the laptop at all.

  Can any ideas on how I fix?

  The laptop is a Toshiba Satellite L300D

  Hello

  Well, if the BIOS update crashed you can do anything because the ROM module needs to be reflashed. This is possible only with special tools and only an authorized service provider has such tools.

  Then please contact the nearest service Toshiba and ask for help :)
