Satellite S2400: "Block 1 BIOS is corrupted" Error Message at startup

Hello

my laptop S2400-103 does not start, instead it gives my the error message mentioned above and request a disk "interview."

How can I fix? I downloaded 2 updates of BIOS for this model, but they both require a Windows system running.

Thank you

Hans

For this old Satellite notebook, you can download Win and TRAD BIOS update.
Here you can download the updated BIOS TRAD (traditional) version and it works using the floppy and has nothing to do with the Windows operating system.

I don't know if you can fix damaged BIOS, but you can try it.

    Hello

    I think you chose the wrong BIOS.
    You should be careful with these updates because the bad BIOS and bad upgrade procedure can bring a lot of trouble with the laptop and the motherboard.

However, I now have this error message at startup.  Does that mean exactly?

    When I go into the BIOS, information on the system is xxxxxxx.  When I go to HP technical support.  The product name, serial number and product number is yyyyyyyy.  I know it's fake, why?

  • G6-2235us c2n50ua #aba Pavilion: Pavilion g6-2235us bios update failed - error msg at startup

    I had hard time to upgrade to 8.1 Windows, so I made an update of the bios, as recommended by the HP Web Site, but it failed, and now the laptop will not boot.  It displays the error message "your computer must be repaired: \bcd, 0xc0000034... error code. "Additional info are available by pressing ESC, and I can't get into a black screen with options:

    F1 system information

    the F2 System Diagnostics

    F9 boot device options

    configuration of the BIOS F10

    F11 system recovery

    I've been to the bottom of all of these tracks, with no luck on continue.  F10 shows me all the bios configuration screens and the version of the bios is F29, the version I tried to level to.

    I tried to remove the big battery and pressing the start for a minute button - no joy.

    I tried now Windows + B + start - no joy

    I guess I'm trying to create a USB key with the BIOS on this subject, and this is where I am confused.  The softpaq BIOS for this machine is sp66880.exe.  I've got that on an USB fat32 with the label of volume HP_Tools, and I've got HP tools on the stick too.  When I try to boot with the stick of pressing windows + b + start, the light on the USB flashes a lot, but in the end I get the message "the system bios recovery has failed. Could not open the bios image file.  I have a feeling that I don't have the correct configuration on this USB key.  I tried to run sp66880.exe on another computer, but he said that he will immediately Flash the bios, I really want to do (on my Toshiba laptop!).

    I would be very happy any help you all can give me on how to create USB recovery key in the proper format.  Thanks in advance.

    Fixed!

    It turns out that the update of the bios is really successful, but something in the hard disk boot files has been corrupted.  I got a USB key recovery Windows 8 on another machine and finagle around having HP laptop reformat the hard disk to the original factory State.  Fortunately, I made a very recent Macrium image until this most recent problem, so the next step is to restore this image.  With the new c F29 bios, I hope that this beast will finally go to Windows 8.1.

  • Files missing or corrupt error message

    Pavilion g4 with Windows 7

    Try to open Microsoft Office library files, I get the following error message: "this program is unable to run because of missing or corrupted files.  Contact the manufacturer of your computer. "Also, seen in the library, Microsoft Office files do not display their characteristic icons (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.).  All cultures view the Red page, icon.  However, when I open the files of their respective programs, i.e. all first open MS Word and then open one of the files affected by the program, they open without difficulty. I would be grateful for views on the resolution of this problem.

    By 'Library' you mean say Windows Explorer instead, or you want to say in the Documents folder in the library section?

    What version of Microsoft Office is installed?

    Icons expected loss means that files have lost the link with the program which aims to open. It is quite easy to repair.

  • Satellite A135-S4666 - recovery disk displays an error message

    The hard drive crashed while I replaced it. I am trying to use the recovery disk to take the computer to the "out of the box configuration.

    I chose to 'recover' rather than erase the hard drive based on this choice. Then it copies the files from the first disc and pushes me to the second. After putting the other continues to copy files. Finally, she moves more to 'recover now' she does and seems to be using the hard disk newly installed something between 35 and 50% of the task. At this point, I get an error message stating "error recovery" and invites me to press ok to shut down the computer and spits out the CD. The error message is coded 10-FC12-0002. I tried 4 or 5 times with the same result.

    Am I supposed to use disc erase first, and then use the recovery mode since it is a new hard drive? Or I have a defective recovery disc?

    Any comments or ideas would be greatly appreciated, I do not get the case at this stage.

    Hello

    It's not easy to tell if it s a recovery disk problem or if the new HARD drive is the problem. Have you tested a Microsoft disc for example? If the disc of Microsoft is, it seems that your recovery disc is noisy and needs to be replaced. Otherwise the new drive HARD cause this problem.

    Check this box to determine the cause of this problem!

    Hello

    My friend who s a long story.

    It's not easy to say what the reason is for this, but to me it sounds like that there is something wrong with the HARD drive. In your case I would format the HARD drive before launching the recovery disc. You can do this with a Microsoft disk to format the whole HARD drive. After that try the recovery disk again.

    If it doesn't work, you should check the HARD drive with a special HARD drive diagnostic tool like Drive Fitness Test. use Google to find it, it s freeware and takes only a few minutes.

    Hello

    Cannot find this file on Google so you probably dodged some software malware and you should do a
    very thorough control. Message on how to remove the error message if still it y
    After the audits of malware.

    If you need search malware here's my recommendations - they will allow you to
    scrutiny and the withdrawal without ending up with a load of spyware programs running
    resident who can cause as many questions as the malware and may be more difficult to detect as the
    cause.

    No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often
    easy to detect malicious software often comes with a much harder to detect and remove the
    payload. So its best to be now too thorough than paying the high price later. Check
    with an extreme overdose point and then run the cleaning only when you are very
    that the system is clean.

    It can be made repeatedly in Mode safe - F8 tap you start, however, you should
    also run in regular Windows when you can.
