Satellite Z930 - after the update of the BIOS, additional RAM no longer works

I bought my Z930 Satellite in August and installed 2 GB of additional RAM in it. Worked well, the Ultrabook detected and had total 6 GB of RAM.
Yesterday, I stopped ignoring these messages from Toshiba Tempro and installed the BIOS update suggested that Bios 2.20 (not sure what version it was before). Now, I have several problems:

* First *, my Ultrabook no longer starts with the extra RAM. I press the power button and then the power light flashes: yellow 2 times 1 times orange loop. The screen stays black and the CPU fan starts at the maximum level... Only when I remove the extra RAM, then it boots.

* Second problem *, without my extra RAM, it starts, but sometimes with the fan from the CPU to the maximum level. I so restart it stops.

* Third problem *, Windows doesn't detect only 2 GB of RAM. I have now no extra RAM mounted, it should detect the 4 GB of RAM, as when I bought it. Now, there are only 2 GB...

So this is what happens when I install the proposed updates? -.-
So, what can I do now? At least, I want my preinstalled 4 GB of RAm back. Is there a BIOS downgrade, or something similar to undo changes?

Thanks for the final suggestions!

  • 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:

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

    How can I install back my backup BIOS BACK?

    Hello

    Did you really choose the good BIOS for your laptop? Because on the Toshiba site Web are different models U400 has so you choose for PSU44E BIOS on Toshiba page?

    After the BIOS, you should load the default settings in the BIOS.
    Did you check that?

    A downgrade from the BIOS is not possible. This is possible only from an authorized service provider. So, you should contact them and ask a technician for help. I m sure they will help you. ;)

  • Satellite L300 - after the BIOS update I have a black screen

    Welcome! I have a big problem.

    I improve my Satellite L300 BIOS to the old version that I download on the official website of Toshiba. I turn on the update program and after about minute, the system will shoot down and on the screen I see black screen only. The light on the drive flashes green and the led in the DVD-ROM flashes orange. I have no idea what's going on.

    Please help me!

    Hello

    It sounds like this during the update of the BIOS, that something was going wrong. I think that the ROM module must be reflashed or in the worst cases, the motherboard should be replaced.

    In any case, you should contact an ASP for help. Technicians can try to reflash the ROM module and solve this problem.
    If you don't know where is the nearest ASP, you can search on the Toshiba site:

  • Satellite A30 - after the BIOS update I can not install any OS

    Hey everybody

    I have a problem with my laptop Toshiba Satellite A30 PSA33E. I update my old BIOS and 1.7 and now I have a problem: I can not install any OS on my PC because it stops whenever I try to install. After 50 tests, I installed a Windows SP2, but my PC turns off always.

    My CPU is at 100% after I launch mozilla so I guess my problem is the BIOS. I try to install v1.8 BIOS and is not working and I get an error (not compatible with the installed BIOS)

    Where can I find the 1.3, 1.4, 1.5 ROM BIOS? Can someone help me please?
    THX

    The latest version of the BIOS should not cause this kind of thing. Have reset you the BIOS to its default settings?

    Have you checked the CPU radiator for an accumulation of dust? A can of compressed Air can help remove dust through the vents.

    What was the reason that you updated the BIOS, in the first place? Had previous problems with the system?

  • 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 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...
    I am a player of counter-strike and before the BIOS update I have 99.9 FPS now, I have about 60... Who is wrong?

    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.

  • Re: Satellite Pro A200 - black screen after the BIOS screen

    Hello
    I'm new to the forum and have a big problem. So, any help is welcome and appreciated.

    My Satellite Pro A200 turns black after the BIOS screen and a black screen with a blinking cursor. Also just as the screen goes black a beep can be heard which shows windows boot.
    I can access the toshiba Setup screen but not the installation of security mode.

    Kind regards

    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!

  • NB200 does not start after the bios - screen black screen with blinking cursor

    Hello

    I was using the laptop as usual when I think there may have been a virus activity - reason I say that is that my anti-virus closed unexpectedly. I couldn't restart programs files.

    I restarted the laptop.

    After the bios menu will I get a blank screen with a blinking cursor - windows does not start.

    I did the following:
    (1) create a USB bootable with Recovery Console window XP - boot with this i can see three drives C:, D: as SDA? I can see the content of these disks, so it seems that my HD works. I ran a fixmbr and fixboot, but this has not solved the problem.
    (2) create a Kaspersky bootable USB virus scan - ran it without problem - he found a few question (not on the disk boot sector) I've fixed.

    An option was to copy files from the laptop and then start it in recovery mode - so Itried to run the phone into recovery mode hold down the 0 key at startup - the bottom of the screen then displays * HDD Recovery mode * and nothing happens.

    Any help - other options would be greatly appreciated.

    My 1 year of that guarantee has expired a few months back so can't send in for repair.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I doubt that it is a virus.
    Seems the file system is damaged on the HARD drive and this is the reason why the laptop does not start until it could also be a partition of HARD disk malfunction.

    Try this; Turn on the unit, press F8, and then check if you have the laptop repair.
    If this is not possible, then you will need to reinstall new OS.

    Here you can order a recovery disc:
    http://backupmedia.Toshiba.EU/landing.aspx
    Of course you will need an external USB CD/DVD drive
