• Portege M400: Could not update the BIOS after installing Vista

  Hello

  I have improved my M400 for Vista.

  I am trying to install all drivers Vista of Tosh. According to the instructions, the first thing to do is to update the bios.

  So, I download the bios (v3.60) on the site and run the .exe, but he tells me that I need the common modules.

  The only common modules that I can find on the Tosh site are for XP.

  Can anyone help?

  Thank you

  You will probably need to update the BIOS before installing Vista on the laptop.
  Then, you could install Vista again.

  Hello

  Normally the update of the BIOS is a bit risky and must be that if she of really necessary. In addition the update of the BIOS can only be done from Windows. There is no DOS version, they available only authorized for service providers.

• Satellite Pro 4220 - update the BIOS does not start

  2. put the floppy in the computer
  3. turn on the device with the F12 key

  Hello

  Can I ask why you want to update the BIOS?
  You have problems?
  If the laptop works well the update of the BIOS is not necessary! My laptop is about 6 years old and I have no day BIOS!

  However, I think that you didn't use the right update procedure.
  Please check this document before starting the BIOS update:

• Satellite Pro U500 - update the BIOS does not start on Windows 7

  Try to update BIOS on Satellite Pro U500 PSU9CA. The download site says there is a new version available, after that download and run the program nothing happens. You can see the Winflash process in the Task Manager but it never appears"". If this has yet been tested by Toshiba?

  There are no instructions, no readme or whatever it is.

  Did somebody get the BIOS update?

  Hi torana.

  As far as I know Toshiba always test their drivers or updates tools before they will be released and I have never had a problem with the new updates, so I think that the problem is lreated to your laptop, maybe something wrong with your installation.

  In General before you start the update of the BIOS you have to decompress all the files in archive zip and launch the update as an administrator.
  Also make sure that the value added package is installed and no firewall is not blocking the update program.

• Satellite Pro A120: Need to update the BIOS after upgrade CPU

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A120 and I need to update the bios of a change in cpu cause.
  The laptop works very well, but for some reason any with the new processor fan runs always full.

  A lot, I searched but found nothing.
  The model number is PSAC1E-0QL04CG3 of ideas where I can find the bios?

  THX in advance,
  John

  Hello

  First of all: update BIOS doesn t help you.
  Why do you think that BIOS update should help reduce the activity of fan?

  I guess that your new processor is faster. Right?
  So it offers more performance and this leads to higher heat dissipation... so finally the CPU must be cooled and this can be done only if the cooling module would turn faster you agree with me?

  By the way: the update of the BIOS is on the page of the Toshiba UE driver. Since the satellite Pro A120 is very old series, you will need to search for drivers in area Archive (Type of product-> Archive)

  Are there any other reaction to the laptop?
  You can access the BIOS?

  If this isn't the case, then it seems that something was wrong during the BIOS update process.

  Hello

  Your order of installation of drivers contains the Intel WLan driver.
  But the laptop Satellite Pro C850-1 GR was equipped with the Realtek RTL8723AE WLan/BT combo card.

  I think that you need to uninstall the Realtek WLan driver and WLan Intel driver.
  In addition, you must pay attention to the functionality of BT.

  The card is compatible with the BT and you need to install the driver Package Realtek Bluetooth filter before installing the battery Toshiba BT.

  In addition, do not forget that this WLan adapter is enabled by using the FN + F12 (or just the F12)

  Finally and above all do not forget WHAT BIOS the dafault value

• Satellite A500 - cannot update the BIOS (error message)

  Hello

  I have a PSAR3A - 02U002 Satellite A500 with BIOS version 1.9 is installed.

  After reading several forums, I discovered that there may be a BIOS (v2.0) update available to resolve the current problem, these Satellites have with overheating cooling switch down.

  Excited, I have tried to install the new BIOS - this is what I get:

  "There is an error occurred, please check below the elements."
  BIOS version more than 200.
  Battery capacity more than 10%.
  AC is fixed. »

  First of all, my BIOS version is 190, no more than 200. Second, I find it very difficult to believe that the battery must be less than 10%. And third, I don't see what that remove the power supply cable will do.

  Please note that this update of the BIOS found on Toshiba's European website, but v2.0 claims to be a worldwide release. I then checked on the Australian site and there is no BIOS for my model. I don't know how to interpret this contradiction.

  Help, please!

  Hi umm_excuse_me,

  So I think that BIOS update is not available at this time for you. European and Australian models have different model numbers, so I doubt that the update of the BIOS is always the same. The pieces of equipment may also be different.

  In your case, I would wait until the BIOS was released on the page Australian too.

  By the way: where did you read that this update was release in the world?

• Satellite Pro A120 - cannot access BIOS and install Win XP

  To boot from the CD of Win XP you can also press F12 immediately after switching on the laptop. This will start on the screen menu and there you can choose the CD/DVD drive as the boot source!

• Satellite Pro A120 - Jerky empty reading after installing new HARD drive

  Just installed a new hard drive in my Satellite Pro A120. Made a full new install Vista, installed all the drivers but video playback is choppy/jerky. Even google earth is juddery. It didn't use to be like this with the original hard drive.

  A I had a problem of driver somewhere? I think it's the 945 chipset.

  Hey Buddy,

  To be honest, it's really hard for us, users, to say what causes this problem and I think you should test more yourself

  Anyway, you have reinstalled Windows using the Toshiba Recovery disk?
  You should also check if all Windows updates are installed and if you have yellow exclamation points in Device Manager.

• Satellite L10-119: update the BIOS clears and RTC battery is not

  I upgraded my Satellite L10-119 with new 250 GB HARD drive and the BIOS update. The laptop worked well.
  After two months a probem follow arrived - only first 137 Gb(2^48) of the disk is accessible.
  I've discovered:

  1. If I flash BIOS again and the computer restarted after flashing, the upper part of the HARD drive is accessible for a short time or until I restart again.
  2. a show of internal clock 01/01/1988 if I disconnect and connect a main battery.

  So I guess that it is a problem with the RTC battery (L10-119 is 2.5 years old)

  I tried to charge the battery of the CCF by connecting the laptop power for a long time, but this does not solve the problem.
  Does anyone know what can I do else (except visit ASP)?

  Post edited by: Admin

  Your guess was right, and I also, think that the problem with your BIOS settings always clear RTC battery.
  In other words, the RTC is dead.

  Battery charging will not succeed, because he can't keep the load.
  It's probably not as easy to replace then with desktop computers, so I advise you to contact local ASP, and all must be dismantled.

  I'm sorry to tell you, it's the only method I know to get your laptop to life.
