• Satellite A30-931 - what happens if the BIOS update will not?

  I was recommended to make an update of the BIOS on the above machine. I think that the existing version is 1.30 and the correct replacement is 1.70 (I think it's PSA33E: [http://support.toshiba-tro.de/tools/eula/info_eng2.asp]).

  The original BIOS has a password. Want to know what happens if this process goes wrong. My system will be unusable or is it a pre-installation of the backup procedure?

  The additional problem is that the fan is happening every minute or so. The radiator looks clean, but maybe new thermal grease should be applied to the cpu.

  Thank you

  Hello

  In the worst case if the update goes bad your computer doesn t boot. This means that you can only see a black screen and nothing you can do. In this case you would need professional assistance from an authorized service, they can reflash the ROM module or Exchange it.

  But a few important points here before starting the update:
  S ' ensure that you are logged on as administrator
  -Disable your AntiVirus and your firewall
  -Disconnect the Internet
  -Close all running programs

  > The additional problem is that the fan is happening every minute or so. The radiator looks clean, but maybe new thermal grease should be applied to the cpu.
  Yes, maybe the thermal compound must be renewed if you already cleaned your laptop. After that, everything should work normally.

• Satellite A200-PSAE6E: what changed in the Bios 2.40 Vista 32bits

  Can someone tell me the release notes for the new Satellite A200 PSAE6E BIOS 2.40?
  In fact, the Toshiba never release notes on their BIOS updates.

  Unfortunately, I didn't find all the details on the changes to the BIOS on Toshiba European pages.
  I found a log file BIOS on the site Web of Toshiba us but Satellite A200-PSAE6E is a European model and I doubt that the news of the Toshiba page relates us to the A200 models.

• Satellite P100: Multiprocessor is disabled in the BIOS v4.20

  Hello

  I have just updated the bios to 4.20, after reboot, I went to the bios settings and saw that the multiprocessor (the option for the use of 2 CPUs) is disabled.

  After I enabled it, the computer is very slow, and I had problems with starting the computer.

  When the multiprocessor option is disabled, the computer works ok, but the Task Manager indicates that a single processor.

  I had to go down to the bios to version 4.00.
  I would like to know if there is another solution for this.

  Hello

  In front of me, I have Satellite P100-191. I did the BIOS update to version 4.20, and in my case, Multiprosessor is undoubtedly permissible. In this case, the entry in the Device Manager shows 2 processors.

  I disabled this option and the laptop runs slowly than before and in the device manager what a processor is listed.

  I don't really know what is wrong in your case, but I can confirm that the Satellite P100-191 friends, everything works well.

  Hello

  You wrote that you can access the BIOS, but have you checked if the HARD drive is recognized properly? Perhaps because the computer cannot start HDD isn't recognized then you should check this.

  If the HARD drive is recognized, I would try a Toshiba Recovery disk recovery facility. It seems that Windows isn't able to start and if you reinstall the whole system should help get rid me of this. Go to the start menu and select the CD/DVD drive as a boot device.

  Check this box!

  Also tried pressing F2 and F12 or ESC + F12 F2 before even looking at computer and then turn it also I tried pressing 0 too and also ESC and the ~ button.

  Nothing seems to work.

  Here's a HowTo:
  [Perform a complete shutdown in Windows 8 | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB2B03EY0002R01.htm]

  The fact is that Win 8 keeps the laptop but the unit carries out hybrid stop start up more quickly. Unit should be stopped in order to access the BIOS.

  After the unit is OFF, turn on again and press F2.
  Now you should be able to access the BIOS

• Satellite U200 163: a bug in the bios with linux

  Hi ft

  Unfortunately I have no explanation for what is happening exactly to your device, but don t forget that your device is not supported under Linux and also designed for Windows XP.

  Satellite U200 is more recent and it is possible that in a month next someone will do some Linux experience on this unit and reported it here.

• Satellite P20-304 - how to remove the BIOS password

  So, I entered Bios with F2, went to security, entered the old password and press enter two times to a new blank password.

  The Bios then showed that user password is not defined.
  I saved the changes and started to laptop came out, and asked me again a password.
  Now no entry (only press enter) or the old password works, still displays "wrong password".

  What I did wrong?

  I am a COMPUTER technician, but never had a problem like this.
  This problem is related to the Bios Phoenix or Toshiba? And how to solve the problem?

  Can anyone help? Would be fine, girlfriend needs urgent laptop.

• Satellite M40 does not load before the BIOS screen

  When I turn on my Satellite M40 unfortunately it does not happened on 7/8ths blue bar going across the screen.

  That left me completely baffled as what to do.

  Apparently, it could be repaired by removing the cables on my CMOS battery?

  If someone knows how I would go all this? or have any other ideas?

  Thank you xx

  Hi Dec,

  Blue scroll bars indicate that the Wondiows operating system is loaded from the hard drive. If this process hangs while loading, then it is likely that the hard drive itself is defetive or else the files that are being loaded are corrupt and cannot be loaded.

  Interfere with the CMOS chip will not fix this problem because the BIOS has already been loaded at this point.

  If you have access to a bootable CD/DVD (such as Norton Disk Doctor) then I siggest you boot from it and running a scan of your hard drive. Alternatively you can try reinstalling your operating system of the Toshiba recovery CD but it won't replace your own data on your hard drive.

• Satellite L350 - does not start after the BIOS update

  Hello

  I recently (yesterday) downloaded the latest version of bios update dated dated 25/02/10 2: 20 - WIN, after download and does run the software from the laptop immediately stopped working and stop. I am now no longer able to boot up the laptop at all, all I get is the power light on and the hard disk light flashes, I hear the spinning CD/DVD drive, but what is not screen anything, I don't think this is the start.

  Is there a way to fix this without taking it to a store/engineer, BIOS recovery?

  The laptop is a Satellite L350, I opened the laptop to try to reset the CMOS by removing the card mother battery (not sure if it would have helped), but as much as I know it doesn't have an or I'm not.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  Andy

  Hi Andy,.

  Hmm... If the BIOS update failed, you can't do anything because only an authorized service provider has professional diagnostic and recovery tools to redo an update.

  So in my opinion, you must contact a service provider authorized in your country. Get in touch with the guy and ask for help. They will tell you what to do now.

  Here is their list:

• Re: Satellite U300 - 153 (PSU30E) - updated after the BIOS, I can't install Vista

  I recently installed an update of the BIOS for the U300-153 from the Web from Toshiba website.
  Has been running Vista Ultimate at the time.

  From that moment I could not access my hard drive. Restart the BIOS upgrade, it would hang on to the Vista loading screen. I tried to reinstall Vista Ultimate, but it always freezes at the point "finish installation". Have not tried to install other operationg system.

  Help, please!

  Hello!

  Weird, but in my opinion, it looks like to what you have tried to install an incorrect BIOS for your laptop.
  Are you really sure that you have downloaded the BIOS for Satellite U300 PSU30E?

  In addition, I would try to load the default settings in the BIOS. Check it!

  Are you trying to reinstall Vista using Toshiba recovery disc or disc of Microsoft?

  Good bye

• Satellite 2410-303-display flashing, update the BIOS

  HY!

  I am the owner of the Satellite 2410-303 series. Display does not work very well. I do not know it is because of drivers (even me, I installed the drivers by default) or maybe it's because the LCD screen. Maybe poor contact or something like that? I don't want to take my turn for the service center more because they don't know how to solve the problem. Only what they say is: «I'm sorry, but you have to buy a new...» »

  In speaking of the bios it is 1.20 in 2002. I want to download 1.40 (think it's most recent) but do not know where to download... Please help because this is my first tour & I want to revive his soul... THX.

  Hello

  I always thought that this forum is serious, but you try to make us laugh reading your ad.

  Sorry, but your comment about service is for me really ridiculous. Do you really think that all the issues can be fixed and nothing should be exchanged? I respect your opinion, but I think you're not qualified to talk about. Or maybe you're a technician material. If so, then I feel sorry for my comment.

  Anyway, if you have a display problem trying to connect to external monitor and see exactly what is happening. It will be interesting to know how starts flickering.

• Satellite 2800-600 - how to upgrade the Bios/Firmware?

  How can I upgrade the Bios and firmware on my 2800-600? I want to install a new Combodrive. Which drives are supported? Where can I find the drivers and firmware etc... Please let me know. Thank you.

  Another point of view - I bought MS Windows XP Pro and haven´t you have a PC to install it on. Can I install this OS on my Satellite? Will it work? Where can I find the drivers for touchpoint etc etc... Normally, the Toshiba works with Windows ME and I can not use ITunes on ME... if XP would be great - what do you think?

  Hello Jürgen

  In my opinion, if you install the operating system on the unit you you use the recovery CD provided because it has been tested and it works without any problem. But if you want to install another system on your laptop, you can use the original Microsoft OS and all the necessary drivers, you can find the Toshiba site.
