• Updating BIOS on Tecra M10 - Install2 does not work

  Hello
  I have a Tecra M10 - 13L with Vista Business SP2 32-bit installed.

  I tried to update my BIOS from v1.6 to the currently available in download v3.0 "bios - 20091104152403.zip" page support and unpacked "P0065v300.exe", dated to the 4.11.2009. When I run the program, I always get the message windows "install2 does not work" and that the process is abandoned.

  In the C:\TOSHBIOS folder. UPD, I found an install2.exe dated 12.08.09 which seems is decompressed from the bios update file.
  Any ideas how the update can be done?

  I already loaded the update servers diferent BIOS file and tried several times, but its still the same problem.

  Hello

  Why do you update the BIOS?
  Is there something wrong with the laptop?
  BIOS should be updated only if you have a problem. If the laptop works well, then I wouldn't update this

  However, I found three BIOS for Tecra M10 v3.0
  -bios - 20091104172541.zip
  -bios - 20091104152403.zip
  -bios - 20091103164158.zip

  Try if one of the packages of the BIOS might be decompressed correctly and the exe file could be executed.

• 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 supported

  What 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.

• Tecra M10 - stuck - CTRL key question may be to do with the BIOS?

  Hello and thanks for reading.

  I recently changed my Tecra M10 to Windows 7 (from XP), and it quickly developed the dreaded question-button stuck CTRL This causes the keyboard behaves as if the CTRL key is pressed continuously. Sometimes reaching a key combination, or bring up the on-screen keyboard, temporarily solves the problem, but he returned.

  It seems to be a problem that many people have no simple solution. I watched each thread that I find and tried a lot of things to do with drivers etc without success.

  So first of all, if anyone knows a remedy that works for this particular machine, I would be very grateful to hear!

  Then, there are two things that I did not yet: updating the BIOS and turn off pinch zoom.

  I was watching the following BIOS update:

  http://www.Toshiba-Asia.com/SG/support/drivers/details/25244

  ... which is the version 3.00 and seem to be more recent. My version is 1.90.

  However, version 3.00 is labeled "for PTMB0 * ONLY. I don't know what that means or if it applies to me. Can anyone help? Should I install this BIOS?

  For the pinch zoom, I was informed that disable sometimes cures the problem CTRL - but I can't find any installation zoom pinch on the M10. I think he doesn't have any one. Is this fair?

  Thanks much for any help you can give.

  Hello

  > I was watching the next BIOS update. is the version 3.00, which seems to be most recent. My version is 1.90.

  There are different Tecra M10 models on the market.
  Check the labels at the bottom of the unit. There you should find numbers like for example PTMB0E-01K00LGR

  The first 6 characters are important: for example PTMB0E

  I guess that your laptop belongs to the series of Europeans.
  In this case, you should check the page of the Toshiba UE driver for a possible update of the BIOS.
  http://www.Toshiba.EU/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

  However, on the page of the Toshiba UE driver you will also find the BIOS for all European units Tecra M10 v3.0.

  Anyway, back to Ctrl + button question: guess what, you need to connect an external USB keyboard and must check how is the CTRL key.
  In case the USB keyboard would work properly, the internal keyboard CTRL key is assigned and you will need to replace the internal keyboard.

  PS: it would be possible that the "sticky keys" option has been activated. To disable this feature, you must press SHIFT 5 times in the line.

  Hello

  To use the 3 G, you should first check whether the module G ericsson 3 has been successfully installed.
  Where there is a visible yellow exclamation point in Device Manager, the 3G driver must be reinstalled.

  Dear forum
  The above says everything really.

  I see the two look identical, but one is smaller. These two models are different in other ways please.

  Of course, the two laptops are different.
  There are different models Tecra A10 and there are different units Tecra M10.

  For example:
  Tecra * A10-13 b * supports Intel GM45 chipset and an Intel Core 2 Duo P8400 2.26 GHz CPU.

  Tecra * A10 - 1 2 * supports an Intel Core 2 Duo T9600 2.80 Ghz CPU Intel GM45 chipset

• Tecra M10 - noise emissions

  Hello

  I'm new to this forum and looking for solution for continuous sound from the laptop Tecra M10. I can't play all other sounds. She starts soon as startup the laptop, but can be cut after the start of the window. Not sure if this is hardware or software. I spent at least 7 hours trying to fix this, but without success. Thank you very much for reading the post and any help will be much appreciated.

  Kind regards

  Hello

  Since when you noticed this problem?
  What is your laptop pre-installed with original OS that you got with your laptop?

  Have you tested the feature with the factory settings?
  Is this problem with the internal speakers or there is no sound if you are using the headset too?
  > I spent at least 7 hours trying to fix this, but without success.
  What have you tried already?

• Can I use Tecra A10 OS disk to install the OS on Tecra M10?

  I have a tecra A10 complete with Windows Vista Business installed (and saved in an image using Easeus Todo backup file

  However I also have access to a Tecra M10 entered without an operating system, although the sticker COST (product key) is the same for a windows Vista Business.

  My question is: would my Windows Vista Business backup work A10 on the M10 (i.e. would it load hard disk M10 and then to work properly)

  If someone can advise on this subject I would be grateful if you please

  Best wishes

  At first, I must say that Toshiba recovery image created separately for each laptop model and it is 100% created to work on the specific model. Why?
  Each laptop model has different hardware platform and all the drivers, tools and utilities for some models are part of the recovery image. These recovery images are also tested.

  Generally if the two models have the same hardware platform (hardware) it can be used.

• Blue screen of death, the Tecra M10 runing Win XP

  My Toshiba Tecra M10 works like a dream for three years without ever gasp

  Until the other day.

  My Toshiba laptop is constantly cycling with a BSoD - then I will start windows - it looks like it'll work - it gets in the paper password on screen - then a few blank screens - BSoD then again repeatedly

  I am running XP Pro SP 3

  I couldn't get my laptop to stop doing this, so I removed the battery and then the power cable and it started again and then when he went to BSoD I took a picture of the screen with my digicam fortunately I have one that focuses immediately and take the picture instantly too

  the ERROR is

  BAD_POOL_CALLER

  Tech Info

  STOP 0X000000C2 (0 X 00000043, 0XC38C0000, 0 X 00000000 0 00000000)

  I haven't changed anything on my PC recently and I have tried all the beginning of the top safe mode and last known good configuration but it still cycles round and round and round

  This laptop is not connected to anything and comes standard with a module of memory 2 MB in it to bog

  the last known good configuration does not either, nor did one of the other options in the "safe".

  So I slipped on the HARD drive and tried to boot from my XP CD - not the recovery of Toshiba, one that I have not tried this one in the laptop again.

  Rather unsurprisingly with no HARD drive in the laptop, I got a different error

  STOP 0X0000007B (0XF78D2524, 0XC0000034, 0X00000000, 0X00000000)

  which is I believe the inaccessible boot device - I know, it cannot see the HARD drive because it is sitting on my desk but would wait to boot from the XP CD... ISN'T IT?

  I tried to set all the parameters by default both boot - no difference

  With the HARD drive in - the laptop boots as windows user enter screen with no problems but doesn't stop on this screen - after a few screens blank the BSoD comes up and off it goes again.

  In the advanced startup options, I changed auto-start on setting error so it does not loop forever. and this prevents loop to the start cycle... seems to be changing this setting is not a permanent change

  Then I went into the BIOS and under the mode of the SATA AHCI to IDE controller and the STOP error 0x0000007B (0xF78D2524, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) is gone now and the pc will try to install Windows until I need to see the HARD drive and then gives up trying to install XP with a no. HHD error (the HHD is based of course on my desk) so it was a valid error expected...
  put the HARD return drive without changing the BIOS back makes it appear the STOP 0x000000C2 (0 x 00000043, 0xC38C0000, 0 x 00000000 0x00000000) error

  HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLP please

  Hello

  I think you should test the HARD drive don't you agree?
  In my opinion, this should be the first part that should be checked since the new operating system installation was not possible

  I recommend the use of the tool called: HDD Drive Fitness Test. This software creates a bootable floppy to test. You can use this disk to run a test HARD drive without installation of any system.

  If the error would be detected: replace the HARD drive.
  If no error would be: use the Toshiba Recovery disk in order to install the system. (don t forget to put back the BIOS to default)

• How much memory can I mount in a Tecra M10 - 1CN?

  How much memory can I mount in a Tecra M10 - 1CN and should be in two 200 pin SO DIMM DDR2 PC2-6400 800 MHz modules

  Hello

  Expand the memory depends on the chipset of the motherboard
  The Tecra M10 supports the chipset Mobile Intel GM45 Express and this chipset DDR2 800 MHz RAM 8 GB max

  So first of all, that you can use 2 x 4 GB RAM modules, and on the other hand the speed of memory is limited to 800 MHZ.

  Even if you use faster modules i.e. 1033 Mhz FSB would clock speed to 800 Mhz so it s not worth to use faster than the DDR2 800 Mhz modules

• Tecra M10 - 17U use second HARD drive in the Bay of ODD

  Hello

  I try one of this popular box that allows me to put a second hard drive in the Bay optical slot, I use a Sata to Sata adapter, so there is not really an adapter and more properly connect:

  [http://www.akasa.co.uk/update.php?tpl=product/product.detail.tpl&no=181&type=Enclosures&type_sub = 2.5%20Enclosure&model=AK-OA2SSA-BK]

  My problem is with the BIOS Toshiba waiting for a STRANGE device in this Sata port and cams out with a "CD" error, disable the Sata port.

  I have a workaround, if I start the PC, BIOS after with what this either in the Bay of the STRANGE, after Windows starts, I have insert the second HARD drive in the Bay of ODD, go to "Windows Device Manager" a 'check for changes on the hardware"and voila, the second HDD works fine , for me, it shows a limitation in the BIOS.

  Y at - it assistance, a Beta BIOS or something else, I have the latest BIOS 3.00 for this machine installed.

  Please check this thread:
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=39412

  It seems that Tecra M10 does not support a select bay that would allow you to use a 2nd HDD rather than the ODD.
  As far as I know select bay is compatible with the Tecra M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, S1, S2

• Cannot use scanner on my Tecra M10 finger print

  Hi all

  I have a toshiba tecra M10 PTMB1E laptop with fingerprint reader. IM on windows 7. now the problem I have is that I can't find any application program to run the fingerprint software? ive tried various software downloads of fingerprints on the toshiba site, but nothing works? If I check the devices drivers for the scanner are installed properly. If I type fingerprint in the box of files of research program, he is back with the following

  use your fingerprint with windows
  stop using your fingerprint with windows
  Maintain your fingerprint data
  Remove your fingerprints data
  biometric devices
  change the biometric parameters

  If I click on the first option, it takes me to an authentec page that says under construction? as if I'm going in "manage your fingerprint data?

  I can turn power biometrics, but nothing happens to start up, which allows me to use my fingerprints?

  If I go to the peripheral page biometric in the hardware section it says im not registered? If I click the link highlighted blue 'use your fingerprint with windows' it only take back me to this page of AUTHENTEC .com? and all that is under construction with different links page?

  scanners still used these laptops with windows more? or sector support windows?

  Hello

  On the page of the Toshiba UE driver you can find the fingerprint software and uninstall of fingerprints (this tool is needed to remove the fingerprint reader software)

  You need the software of fingerprint...
  ... more I recommend checking this docuemtn Toshiab concerning the use of the fingerprints:

• Upgrade CPU to Tecra M10 - 13Z PTMB0E-01400LGR

  Hi, I want to improve my Tecra M10 with the CPU max supported. In fact, I have the Core Duo processor T5670 installed. Can someone give me info on the capabilities of the M10?

  Thank´s in advance.

  Concerning

  Astra

  Hello

  Theoretically, you can use a CPU that is supported by the chipset.
  As far as I know the laptop supports the Chipset Mobile Intel GM45 Express.
  So you can see the Intel Gm45 Mobile Intel properties page and what would the supported processors.

  In general CPU upgrade a tricky thing but is stronger CPU produces more heat dissipation and could lead to overheating.
  In addition he s not 100% sure that BIOS would support the new processor.

  I also found this nice doc from Toshiba:
  Is it possible to upgrade the CPU or GPU of a Toshiba laptop?
