Tecra A10 - 12 H - update BIOS: "this computer is not supported"
I need to upgrade the BIOS v 1.60 to the latest version of the BIOS. I downloaded from the site of Toshiba bios file (bios - 20091103164158.zip-> P0065v300.exe), but when I try to update comes this question:
TOSHIBA BIOS PACKAGE VER 3.3.0
THIS COMPUTER IS NOT SUPPORTED
My laptop:
TECRA A10 - 12H
PTSB1E-01E003IT
Windows 7 32 bit
Hello
Have you installed the VAP (value added package)?
The VAP is necessary in order to run the BIOS update and Toshiba tools.
I found a son with the same error message, but the user is using Win XP.
The problem could be solved by the installation of common Modules (only for Win XP).
But the VAP is released for Vista and Win 7 and common modules are in the VFR package.

Tecra R10 - 10J: BIOS update abandoned "this computer is not supported.
Hello
My laptop is a Tecra R10 - 10J PartNumber PTRB1E-00D002FR, 1.40 BIOS version 11/13/2008.
I recently bought and installed two modules of 4 GB RAM (8 GB). Enter the BIOS setup, I found 8 GB. Windows 7 64 bit also detects the 8 GB, but uses only 3.80! MemTest and diagnosis of CPU - Z are good for all of the 8 GB. I went from RAM modules from one location to another, but nothing has changed. If I replace a module of 4GB by a 2 GB memory, Windows 7 uses 5.80 is going well. Same result as any module of memory of 4 GB or slot I use.
I suppose that problem comes from the BIOS. The 1.40 version does not support memory mapped IO functionality.
So I followed the instructions on "http://fr.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/?download_drivers_bios.jsp?" to find the last good package to update BIOS for Tecra R10 - 10J. I downloaded and ran the BIOS310?. exe, but received the error message "this computer is not supported"?
Can someone tell me how to upgrade my BIOS or did someone has a better idea to activate the full 8 GB of RAM support?
Thank you for all!

Hello
You must install the VAP (value added package) or if this package is already installed, you must reinstall/upgrade to update it.
Disable the Antivirus software and disable things of security such as firewalls etc.
Hope that you're lucky...

Tecra M10 - update of the BIOS says "this computer is not supported.
Recently refurbished a M10 - 10I to reinstall the operating system. WinXP install at all so I try to update the BIOS as it seems quite old (V1.5). Most recent version (and is available) for this machine seems to be V3.0. Download and try to run the file "P0065V300" and get the message:
Package for the TOSHIBA BIOS ver.3.3.0
This computer is not supportedWhat can I do? Its supposed to be for this model!
Also, prefer a version of boot drive, but hey, I can use a version of Windows, assuming that it runs on Win7.
Hello
Tecra M10 - 10I belongs to the series of PTMB1E and according to the page of the Toshiba UE driver, BIOS v3.00 - WIN is the latest BIOS version which is available for this model.
The BIOS update requires a few additional tools Toshiba as VAP (additional package for Win 7)
If this driver isn't installed, the update of the BIOS would not work.

Updated the BIOS, I downloaded from the section of the Bios Toshiba for Tecra R840-PT429E update, windows7 64 bit.Hello
Is the a reason to update the BIOS or you want to update the BIOS simply because the new BIOS is available?
You have a serious problem with the laptop?I have no day BIOS, even if the new BIOS is available for my laptop because I have no problems.
However, the BIOS requires the VAP (value added package).
This package can be downloaded from the Toshiba UE driver page
If there is a problem with the VAP, the update of the BIOS would not start.So reinstall the VAP to check if this may help

Hello world
I know, there are several other threads on this topic, but I couldn't find a working solution. I currently have no OS on my DELL XPS 17 L702X. When I try to install from a USB stick bootable Windows 7 Home Premium x 64 I get this error message: windows cannot be installed on this physical drive of this computer may not support the start-up this drive make sure that the drive controller is enabled in the computer's bios menu.I've tried wiping HARD drive and reformat with GParted. I don't really know what I could do.I would be very grateful if you could help meHello
I suggest that you contact the manufacturer of the computer to change the BIOS settings and check if it is has updated the BIOS.
Important: BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.
Let us know the results. We will be happy to help you further.

Hello HP,.
I have a laptop CQ58-bf9WM, which had Windows 8.1. The 320 GB hard drive died and bought a new SATA 500 GB laptop. had no CD recovery, went online, enter all the important information, serial No., model #, then purchased through HP recovery disk, received the CD (manufacturer 708896-001, 708895-001 708897-001) and put #1 disc in the CD started and that's what I get: this computer is not supported by the system recovery media. You will not be able to continue to recover this system with these media. "Error: 0100-169-1855-188 b" then you have the OK, then when you press OK, the laptop shuts down. I pressed ESC on POST, then I tested memory and the new hard drive and they both passed. HELP PLEASE! Thank you
Should not have anything to do with the new hard-both disk that is at least equal or greater than original ability, they work. It is 'possible' that you have received the wrong set of recovery.
Thing of OE to check. Enter the BIOS by pressing F10 immediately after turning on (have to press ESC, then F10 to the menu). Is the serial number, model number.etc all intact?

Get the Message After that recent Windows 7 update for this computer is not running Genuine Windows
I bought this directly from computer to DELL 9 months ago. After the last update of Windows 7, I get the Activation screen pop up:
"This computer is not current running Genuine Windows"
I tried some of the suggestions on the community forum - did not work.
I tried to re - activate Windows by phone - rejected
I tried to follow the directions on the error screen - unfortunately, I seem to get lost in an infinite loop, tried to contact MS Support by eMail... I can never get the screen to contact technical support by email. I'm trying this.

This is on a DELL computer. I contacted DELL support and they have a bulletin on the basis of their knowledge. The bulletin has a number of solutions for fixing this updates the BIOS including instructions, and updates the driver Intel. For me, the update of the BIOS seems to have solved the problem.

I have a Sony Vaio VGN-NW235F and I am a student in the it field. A lot of my software are not supported by Windows 7. So I upgraded my Windows 7 Home Premium to Windows 7 Professional so that I can run Virtual PC. But I'm not able to run due to the above error...
Please kindly help me
Thanking you,
Paths
Salvation of the paths,
Looks like you are trying to get XP Mode configured, that will install a virtual machine for you to run your legacy programs. This feature is available in the professional versions, full and Enterprise edition - so your property in this aspect.
You get this error message because you do not have the chip installed for hardware - assisted virtualization technology and it's good. you don't need more. Click on this link http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx and select your language and edition. Then scroll down to step 3. You must download and run the third component called Windows XP Mode Update. This update will remove the requirement that you have the chip mentioned above.
That should do the trick.

Is there a way to uninstall the update of Firefox? I already had a problem with this program because it was not compatible with the latest version of IE.
Hey jpgaprilfool,
There are many benefits to the latest version of Firefox. Out of curiosity, what program is not compatible with the new Firefox? You should consider your comments for developers so that they can continue to improve the product.
If you want to roll back to a previous version of Firefox, just take a glance section of the Knowledge Base install an older version of Firefox.
Hope this helps!

0x8004fe21 - "this computer is not running Windows" - KB3024777 update does not resolve the issue
Hello
My Windows 7 has been giving me some problems lately. I get messages that "this computer is not running genuine Windows" (0x8004fe21). I'm running a genuine version of windows, and when I check the properties of my computer, it tells my that I have in fact validated my copy of Windows 7.
I also had a problem when new updates to Windows Update settle not and after a few google searches, I have concluded that this must have been caused by bad KB3004394 update.
It has been suggested that I deleted this update, but it did not show anywhere under installed updates.
It has also been suggested that I downloaded the patch of "quick fix" KB3024777, which is supposed to remove the faulty update.
I did, and since then, the issue of windows updates has been resolved. Again installing the updates of windows, but I still get messages I'm not authentic Windows.In addition, I tried all sorts of things, I found in online forums, but I don't remember exactly what those who were, because most of them were things that I didn't understand.
Maybe you guys can help. Thank you in advance!
I was told to run MGDiag and post the results here so here go us:
