• Tecra M2 - updated BIOS is not supported

  Hello; I have a Tecra M2 I want to update BIOS.

  I downloaded it from the Toshiba site, specified for this model. But when I unzip in my book, there is a message that says "Bios Update v. 3.2.8. This computer is not supported. But my laptop is a 32-bit computer, and there is nothing strange about this... What is going on?

  I need a help. (It's only a simple update BIOS...)

  Thank you

  J.

  Hello

  The Bios Update v. 3.2.8 error message. This computer is not supported"might appear because the DMI information that contains the name of the laptop and other details of s notebook is wrong.
  In this case the DMI must be updated.

  The other reason why you are not able to update the BIOS, it is this tool called common Modules is not installed on your laptop.
  So install it and check if you can update the BIOS

  Last but not least, the reason could be the preinstalled OS, I hope you are using Win XP in order to update the BIOS

• Tecra A11 - update Bios proposed - needed?

  Hi - I have just been offered a BIOS update for my Tecra A11 - 17N (Via Toshiba Service Station) - updated to v3.10 BIOS...

  Clicking on implementing up-to-date offers no details about what it contains fixes / improves - it is just said basically "install and the computer will restart several times.

  My Tecra works perfectly - no problems at all. Should I ignore it?

  Hello

  In my opinion, the update of the BIOS is unnecessary if you have no problem with the laptop. It turns out that the update of the BIOS is always a sensitive technique and if it s not really necessary, I wouldn't

• Satellite M70 - 159-> update bios-> DVD ROM missing

  Hello
  I have the Satellite M70-159, PSM71E
  I made the big mistake, please help and suggestions are welcome.

  History:
  I installed Windows XP home sp2
  A few days ago I tried to update my hardware drivers (last attempt was a few years ago) and the BIOS too.
  So, first of all, I decided to update the bios of 1.30 to 1.50
  -bios150win has been downloaded and install completely and it works very well. But since then, that my laptop doesn't see DVD - ROM - it disappeared at all.
  WindowsXP says - no CD/DVD-ROM in your stack of material, and I can't boot from bootable CD/DVD drive.

  I tried to downgrade the BIOS to 1.30 but the f * ng tool shows me a message that I have more new bios and I do not need to downgrade.
  Hey! Toshiba! Please, give me a chance! Just remove your Bios update a few lines of code! Do not check the version of the bios.

  PPL! Please help. Because now I can't reinstall OS, I can't burn, I can't get my data, I can't do anything.

  Thank you

  Thanks for the info, but could you please post how you solved this?

• Update BIOS Qosmio X 300 has failed - the size of the ROM file is incorrect

  Hello

  I use TEMPRO, and he suggested to update my BIOS.
  I downloaded the file and run the Setup file. Unfortunately, it says "the size of the ROM file is incorrect.

  This means I m doing wrong? or I have the latest BIOS in my system.

  Please advice.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  First of all I don't do everything what said Tempro!

  Secondly, this message was posted here in the forum several times and if you are looking for the size of the ROM file is incorrect, you would find that:

  The problem is that you have unzipped the Cabinet correctly!

  In any case, I think that it s not useless to put anything, if the laptop runs without problem!

  This error message appears if you want to update a BIOS that is not compatible with your model of laptop.
  Toshiba pilot European page provides the BIOS 2.10Win for this model of laptop.
  If you have used certainly bad BIOS.

  > There is no response when you press on the "FN" key and one of the number keys f
  Controls of common modules the FN keys.
  If the issue should be resolved install common Modules v 6.06.00, 4.30.15 utilities
  Notes; You need to press FN + 1, 2, 3 etc. DON T press FN + F1 etc.

  First be sure that the AHCI is enabled in the BIOS.
  In addition, the Intel Storage Manager controls the AHCI so you should integrate the AHCI driver to CD Win XP as described here:
