Slimline 450 - a24: updating the BIOS Groovein

Morrow good Forum

I have just updated BIOS firmware this morning at 06:30. Start from 80,70 A010, (SP74559). Its still displays a yellow exclaimation point by the blue question mark. This is the first time that takes place.  The second time, I have updated the BIOS and I'm having second thoughs. The VXT was now activate, information availible?

Look Redscarelett aka Redscarlett

Hello Malygris1

Device Manager has no exclamation point. It the blue question mark that belongs to HP support Assistant icon in the system tray. He disappears after writing a post for help. All I needed was a little patience.

Could you tell me old_geekster that the solution laid a rotten egg to update the graphic driver intel. I'm mulling over deleting folder swsetup for driver Intel.

  • ProBook G3 450: I've updated the bios on my g3 Probook 450 and now potrs usb do not work

    I've updated the bios and after restarting the pc no usb port work and the usb serial bus is not listed in Device Manager. I have not received any error.

    Hi Richrob,

    Usually after the BIOS updates I recommend restoring the default BIOS because some parameters may change or managed power States must be refreshed. If you start at the F10 menu there will be a restoration of the default BIOS on the home page.

    If the USB bus does not return to the top after restoring default values, try to reinstall the USB driver. You can find the latest version for Windows 7 here.

    The different stock for maxium is almost small. With only 4EU in chip SoC it improvement at little cost.
    Just delete SWsetup/DRV or you will have discovered that the stock drivers reinstall itself. A battle lost for months, until yesterday.

  • HP SlimLine 450 - A24: Add an expansion card 4 ports USB 3.0 PCIe to a HP 450 - A24

    Hi, new to the forum.

    I have a HP Slimline 450 - A24 and would like to know if it is possible to install a port 4 USB 3.0 PCIe expansion card?  All I could find is that the expansion port was used. Is it possible to add even 4 port USB 3.0 PCIe expansion card?

    Thanks fror your help

    Hi @gulwing1,

    That the Forums are with you! It's a good place to find the help you need, other users, the HP experts and other members of the support staff. I understand that you are looking for more information on your system and whether it is possible to put a 4-port USB 3.0 PCIe card. I'm happy to give you a helping hand with this.

    Looking at the HP Slimline 450 - a24 Desktop PC product specificationsand HP and Compaq Desktop PCs - specifications (P-nutmeg nuts) of the motherboard, System Board lists no matter what expansion slot at all.  With this in mind, you cannot use a PCIe card in this system.

    It is unfortunately not the news you wanted, but answering your question. Please mark this message as a solution. Bravo would be appreciated as well.

  • Impossible to update the BIOS on my Satellite A660

    Hello, guys!
    When I try to update the BIOS on my laptop in version 2.3 (latest version 1.6) I get the message "install UEFI winflash 0.02:

    + The program will be closed! +
    + There is an error occurred, please check below Articles. +

    The conditions of the first and the last are rooms but the second is not because the battery is dead (always 0% charged). Is there another way to update the BIOS?
    Thank you!

    No, there is no other update BIOS because victory BIOS update version is available on the Toshiba driver website.

    I guess you need good work and battery charge in order to update the BIOS.

    But why you want to update the BIOS? Is something wrong with the laptop?
    The update of the BIOS is a very serious update and must be done very carefully
    Incorrect procedure may damage the motherboard!

  • Yet WT8 - after that updating the BIOS 1.6 screen is too bright

    After the update the BIOS to version 1.6, as even the lowest setting of the screen is bright when using the device in a dark environment (e.g. reading in bed). Before the update, I simply set the brightness slider Windows at the lowest level and everything was fine but now it is so brilliant that he hurt the eyes.

    Anyone else with this problem? Is there a solution?

    * Brightness * level is a function of * EC version * (on-board controller).

    There are variants _Two in units shipped: __

    THIS 1.20 + and +-bios 1.20

    _After bios upgrade: _

    THIS 1.20 + and +-bios 1.60

    EC 1.10 was 1.20 lower brightness level, 1.10 is so much better in the dark situation, * ask * Toshiba * Europe * to solve this problem.

  • 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)

  • Updating the BIOS is dead the satellite Pro P300-1AY

    Hi all

    found this forum and really hoping that he can help me!
    I bought a satellite Pro P300-1AY two years ago, it cost me £900 nr so I thought it would be worthy of a purchase.

    A year ago the USBs stopped working, I do it every working solution I could think of anything will do, finally gave up and learned to live without USBs!

    However, a few weeks ago, the laptop at the start stop, I didn't get was the black screen. Probably a video problem I did all the memory check hard drive everything else, however, it was only an intermittent problem, I found if I he tilted on the side she would begin, another thing to live with!

    But two days ago, I heard that if I've updated the BIOS, it could solve all my problems. so I went to the Toshiba site, found the BIOS updated and downloaded, but to halfway through the installation, the laptop froze and I couldn't t he put it off and had to take the battery out to turn it off!

    And ve you may have guessed, he's now won t start. Even its worst, LED lights, and if I put a disc in the cd I can hear it whirring, but that s it.

    Is - this irreparable? I ve heard of priming of the cd with the original BIOS with a combination of keys or I'm hoping against hope?
    Ty for your time in reading :)

    Hello

    > Is it irretrievably? I ve heard of priming of the cd with the original BIOS with a combination of keys or I'm hoping against hope?

    Well, usually the BIOS could once again be reflashed, but you would need a traditional version of the BIOS update.
    This version is available for Toshiba FSA.

    So you will need to get in touch with a local ASP technician that could reflash the Rom BIOS module.
    Eventually, after this update the specifications would be stable.

    Good luck

  • Update the BIOS - protected A600 problem

    I'm trying to update my BIOS settings on my laptop (that I was invited to do by the service of Toshiba hardware update).

    I followed all the instructions provided by the program because it extracted and ran the update. However, the computer began the reboot process, but has been 'disconnected' windows (Vista Business) for about an hour now. I don't know how to stop the process without causing serious damage to my BIOS, but this does not seem normal.

    Help, please!

    Hi wilreb...

    I think that the user henharas a bad experience with the BIOS updates.
    I updated the BIOS many times and never had any problems...

    I assume you mean on Tempro software... this software informs you about updates on the Toshiba page. It is not a recommendation for an update, but simply an alert that new updates has been published...

    If your laptop is running properly, then update the BIOS is not really necessary...
    You must follow these tips; never change a running system ;)

    In any case, after the update of the BIOS shouldn't take too long and if she has completed, you should see the new version in the BIOS settings...

    Thank you

    Hello

    Thanks for posting in the Forum from HP Support.

    No, no need to worry.

    Updated the BIOS/UEFI is not a critical task and I would say that you leave like this for now.

    General recommendation I provided to users/customers is NOT to upgrade the BIOS/UEFI, unless they live any sort of BIOS/UEFI problem specific. Just for updaing and update just for the use of the latest verson is not the solution. Any type of update (no matter what and that relesed it) can solve 2 problems but can introduce more than 10 questions. In addition, upgrading the BIOS (for any provider) are risky more because the BIOS recovery is not that easy compared to updates of typical software IF something goes wrong.

    Update/update IF you have any specific questions that you know have been fixed in the new version or for some serious security issues. Otherwise, keep the existing version as long as possible.

    See you soon!

  • Is it possible to update the BIOS for the Satellite A110 (PSAB0) and Windows7?

    Hi all

    I recently installed Windows 7 on Toshiba Satellite A110 (PSAB0).
    The version of the system BIOS is v1.30
    I want to Flash the BIOS for you last version v2.0.
    This version is released in January 2009, before the introduction of Windows 7.

    There are two versions of the BIOS download, one "for Vista only' and one 'OS independent.
    I think I have to go to the operating system independent.
    Link: [update BIOS | http://www.toshiba.nl/innovation/download_driver_details.jsp?service=EN&selCategory = 8 & selFamily = 192 & selSeries = 236 & selProduct = 661 & STAS hortMod = 478 & language = 1 = 12 & selOS & selType = 4 & yearupload = & monthupload = & dayupload = & we eDate = null & mode = allMachines & search = & action = search & macId = & country = 24 & selectedLanguage = 12 & type = 4 & page = 1 & ID = 66230 & DISO =-1 & driverLanguage = 42]

    Independent of the OS has warning: + "this Bios is NOT compatible for notebook computers equipped with Windows Vista!" + "

    So here's my question: this BIOS version is compatible with Windows 7?

    Thank you very much!!

    AJ.

    Hello

    I think that this BIOS (v2.0) is not released for Windows 7 and that it has also not been tested with Windows 7. This BIOS has published 21.01.2009 and Windows 7 was released on July 22, 2009. However, on the other hand it s not mentioned that this BIOS is not compatible with Win 7.

    But the fact is that only Windows 7 doesn't is NOT supported on this laptop.

    Windows 7 drivers are not out on Sat A110, but this does not mean that you couldn't install Win 7 on this device. Of course, you can install the Win 7 system, but Toshiba does not provide any Win 7 software for this series.

    Back to BIOS update:
    In your case I would try not to update the BIOS if the laptop works properly.
    Why? Because the update of the BIOS is still a technique sensitive and you could damage it the motherboard if something goes wrong during the update of the BIOS.

    Can you charge the battery when the laptop is turned off? Usually battery LED should show you white and orange color to the loading process if the battery is fully charged. And then start the computer and update the BIOS.
