• Satellite P20 S203: update BIOS after version 1.70

  Hello! I have a Satellite P20 - S203 BIOS is Ver1.70, published on 20/11/2003. I think there pretty outdated now, but there has been no new versions for years and I think that this great computer, despite the old, should be more supported. What I don't understand is why they made an exit for the PSP23E and not for the PSP20E, that make the differences that they should deserve to be updated bios different?

  Does anyone of you know about BIOS versions after 1.70 which allow the laptop to boot from SD cards or removable media? And that the problems of the management of multiple USB devices?
  Thank you

  Hello

  I use P20 over two years, without any update of the BIOS. If your device works well I recommend you to leave. Boot from the SD card is not possible and update the BIOS will not allow this.

  What problem do you have with the USB devices?

• Satellite L50 - C - update BIOS 1.50

  I recently received the Toshiba Software Service message I could (have) to update my BIOS. (1.20) to 1.50 BIOS. My L50 - C Satellite is just a few weeks. Do someone recommend me to do or is not necessary to take such a risk that my laptop does not work after the upgrade?
  Thank you very much and best regards from the Austria
  Bob

  Well, I have a L50D-C and updates to the BIOS solved some problems that I had at the start. Your model is slightly different, so I don't know what questions you have if any. Unless your system suffers from a kind of I/O software problem that I wouldn't recommend it. Each BIOS behaves differently from everything and you can upgrade your hardware later. You will probably need to match it with the best available BIOS if that happens and it is important to note that you can not downgrade your BIOS (not easy at least). So keep the BIOS that you have for the moment until you notice some from hardware in the hardware or software drivers update.

  Hello
  I have the Satellite M70-159, PSM71E
  I made the big mistake, please help and suggestions are welcome.

  History:
  I installed Windows XP home sp2
  A few days ago I tried to update my hardware drivers (last attempt was a few years ago) and the BIOS too.
  So, first of all, I decided to update the bios of 1.30 to 1.50
  -bios150win has been downloaded and install completely and it works very well. But since then, that my laptop doesn't see DVD - ROM - it disappeared at all.
  WindowsXP says - no CD/DVD-ROM in your stack of material, and I can't boot from bootable CD/DVD drive.

  I tried to downgrade the BIOS to 1.30 but the f * ng tool shows me a message that I have more new bios and I do not need to downgrade.
  Hey! Toshiba! Please, give me a chance! Just remove your Bios update a few lines of code! Do not check the version of the bios.

  PPL! Please help. Because now I can't reinstall OS, I can't burn, I can't get my data, I can't do anything.

• Satellite U400 - after update BIOS lighting lights

  Since the update the BIOS on my U400-15E (Vista 32), lighting of the multimedia keys, touchpad always turn after the restart, recovery from the sleep or Hibernate. Touch the illuminance on the off button once does that second touch them will turn off until the next reboot.

  Illumination is disabled in the configuration of the bios and also through HWsetup. After reboot/wake up, without touching the illumination button, accessing the illumination in HWSetup tab / illumination is shown as turned off even if it's on. Touch the power button can toggle illumination to without changing the real light on keyboard. Next key activates / deactivates them both off.

  This isn't a pain important but very frustrating. Any ideas?

  Hello

  A friend of mine had a similar problem with the buttons of the illumination and the reason was an update of Windows or software that is not compatible.
  Anyway, he did also reinstall the VAP and updated the BIOS but no luck. At the end of the story he reinstalled Windows using recovery disc HARD option and everything worked very well.

  Maybe a new facility with Toshiba Recovery disk or HARD drive recovery option can help you, buddy.

  Good luck!

• Envy 17 3010eg: upgrade to Windows 8 and update Bios: no switchable graphics and other problems

  Hello

  I'm of the Germany, but I'll do my best to write this in English.

  The product name and number: HP Envy 17 3010eg {information}

  Operating system: Windows 8 Pro 64-bit

  Drivers: everything up to date

   

  Long story short,

  I just wanted to upgrade the pre-installed Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit to the new Windows 8 Pro 64-bit.

  So I waited until the driver for Windows 8 support has been completed by HP.

  This month, I noticed that HP has released a graphic driver for Windows 8.

  Happy as I was I installed Windows 8 immediately via upgrade function.

  I installed all the missing drivers.

  * Update Bios to F.08*

  I noticed that I had to upgrade my Bios to version F.08 to install new graphics drivers. I did the upgrade and installation of the driver.

  BUT after the update to the version of the Bios the laptop only F.08 recognized the AMD graphics card. The integrated Intel HD 3000 graphics card had disappeared!

  Even after installing the new graphics driver, the Intel card is still missing in the 'Device Manager' of Windows 8.

  The battery life is now about 1 1/2 to 2 hours maximum because the laptop always uses the card AMD.

  So I looked in the 'new' Bios, but I have not found a way to change the graphics card. So I think that there is only a 'software' switch to do so.

  I have installed "AIDA64"and look under "Graphics".» The graphics card Intel HD 3000 has been mentioned as 'disabled'.

  Nice, but I have no idea how to turn it on again.

  So I re-installed Windows 8. This time, I did a completely clean install. With the same results.

  So, I switched to Windows 7, and there you go. Two graphics cards are displayed in "Device Manager" and the switchable graphics feature works perfectly (! even with the new version of the Bios F.08!).

  * Tested in Bios Version F.09*

  Yesterday, I noticed another Bios Update. This time in version F.09.

  So, I updated the Bios with Windows 7 installed.

  Everything went well (I thought!).

  Once, I've done a completely new installation of Windows 8 to take a peek, if Intel HD 3000 card will be recognized this time.

  BUT without success...

  So, I thought that the problem could only be Windows 8, because Windows 7 works perfectly.

  * Problems with Bios Version F.09*

  BUT then, I noticed a strange behaviour of my laptop:

  -proximity sensor no longer works

  -the keyboard backlight cannot be (DIS-) activated

  -the brightness of the backlight is half as usual

  -internal fans are going crazy-> they accelerate without reason (laptop is idle) and won't slow down until I do a re-boot

  * Version of the Bios downgraded to F.05*

  So, I spent to the version of the Bios to the older Version available: F05

  And I was a little shocked by the result.

  Windows 8 acknowledged the Intel HD 3000 graphics card again!

  The problem is the Bios!

  Then, I upgraded the version of Bios version to see which version of the cause of the problem:

  Œuvres F05

  Œuvres F.06

  F.08 does not work

  F.09 does not work

   

  So I decided to stay with the version F.06

  BUT to install the new Windows graphic 8 driver you need the version of Bios F.08 (min.).

  I installed the driver anyway...

  I found myself with a black screen... I had to reinstall Windows completely.

  Yet more long story short,

  I ended up using Windows 8 Pro 64 - bit with the graphics card AMD only.

  I also updated the Bios (back) to the version F.08 dispelled the problems with the version of the Bios F.09 I mentioned.

  So for the moment I am absolutely no idea what the problem might be.

  The support has not yet heard of these problems and I have not found any website which explains the same problem.

  Every posting, I found explains that the AMD card is not recognized by Windows 8 but Intel HD card.

  Someone else got the same problems?

  What do you think? Is it really a problem with the Bios?

  What can I do to solve the problem?

  for me the best driver are:

  http://leshcatlabs.NET/

  Works Perfekt (cards during execution of the F06 BIOS and a map when F08/09) and are updated often.

• Satellite Pro 490 update BIOS

  My Satellite Pro 490 Notebook refuses to start recently and demanded an update of the BIOS. I checked on the Toshiba site for advice and downloaded the correct BIOSware on another computer. I created a bootdisk BACK (on advice) and saved the BIOSware to this, and I started the laptop with the parallel diskette in the external floppy drive.

  He whirred and buzzed and seemed to do its thing, but when I stopped and restarted for WinXP, it was not recognizing my kepboard or integrated mouse. He sometimes recognizes a USB external mouse, but he doesn't always know what I want to do : o ( )

  So I did it once again, this time, after you restart with the floppy in the drive, he bed 'to go '. "and shows me the gubbins of copyright of Microsoft Corporation and then takes me to the A:\ command prompt and still does not recognize my kepboard or the mouse, just the weird key here and there.

  Before I got the ban at the end og the garden, is - someone give me advice? Is there anything else I could try? Anything? =o r

  Hello

  I have yesterday activated download site and new version is now. I tried it on my computer and it works fine.

  Good bye

• Re: Satellite M30 604: update BIOS to disable checking of fan/temperature

  Hi all!

  I am a (satisfied) owner of a Satellite SM30-604.

  It chanced that the internal fan broke and I managed to provide enough air "fresh" with other fans of two. Let me point out very well on this point: there is no overheating problems. But no fans are now connected to the motherboard (Intel odem i855pm-333, I guess).

  Then, it appens when CPU reached 70-72 ° C (this is a normal temperature for this architecture), the mobo to slow down the processor, centrino M (1600 MHz) at a frequency which, roughly speaking, one quarter (400 MHz), leaving the laptop useless.

  So my point is: is there a BIOS (also unofficial, modded or what else...) which can turn off checking of the temperature/fan motherboard?

  I'll help apriciate!

  ALE

  PS: my current BIOS is Phoenix v1.70. I can't find an official update.

  > So my point is: is there a BIOS (also unofficial, modded or what else...) which can turn off checking of the temperature/fan motherboard?
  No, there is no such BIOS.
  What you can do is change settings in Toshiba Power Saver for energy savings (I assume you are using Win XP).
  So Toshiba Power Saver you can change the method of control of the CPU to fixed and processing speed of the CPU to the next level.

• Satellite M30 742: update BIOS issue

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite M30-742.

  The BIOS does not recognise my new NEC optiarc DVD RW AD - unit 5540 a. so I need to do a BIOS upgrade.

  Can someone tell me where can I get BIOS more recent (I currently v1.40) and how the procedure is done?

  Thank you in advance.

  Concerning

  Maybe you don't need to update n the BIOS but a CD/DVD player compatible and taken in charge? ;)

  Not all CD/DVD slimline drives are compatible with laptops due to different master/slave/c-salt settings.

  I is recommended; buy a compatible player and don t flash BIOS because this willnot help!

  A hint more; If you try to update the BIOS with the bad BISO or bad procedure the laptop motherboard could be too bad!

  So be careful dude!
