• Satellite Pro 6100 - after updating the BIOS, it does not

  Hello

  I am trying to upgrade my old of Satellite Pro 6100.

  I started to upgrade the Bios via download from Toshiba (using WIN) site - OK downloaded zip files and installed, machine then stops. Problem, it does not restart - it's so now I have a laptop 'death' that is not responding to any key I tried.

  Any suggestions of resuscitation?

  Already I've updated from XP to SP2.

  Thank you

  Hello

  It sounds like that the BIOS update has failed and your laptop can start t again. But try this workaround:
  Remove the AC adapter and the battery and then wait an hour. After that reconnect the adapter AC/DC and battery. Try to start the laptop.

  If it doesn t work I think that the motherboard needs to be replaced or you go to an authorized service provider. Technicians can reflash the ROM module
  But maybe you can find a motherboard of second hand cheap on eBay

  Good bye

• STOR. TV2 E 2 TB fails to download the BIOS

  The unit (STOR. TV2 E 2 TB) fails to download the BIOS when it is connected to the TV, so it cannot be used as a multimedia and with the multimedia menu option; on the other end when it is connected to a PC via a USB port files can be read and written about it.

  I need to know how it is possible to replace or update the BIOS on the device, having in mind that without access to the device via the TV and remote control, only via PC (and USB), by editing the files on the HARD drive.

  Concerning

  Hello

  Format you the HARD drive in the past or have you changed something in the partition table?
  This procedure may affect the media functionality.
  Unfortunately, it seems that there is no new update of firmware for this device, and therefore, you will not be able to update the firmware.

  But try to connect the device to the TV using two different solutions.
  Usually, you can connect the device Stor.E TV2 to the TV using the HDMI cable and the composite AV cable. I recommend you to check two workaround solutions

• Re: Satellite L300-11V - updated after the BIOS no longer start

  Hi guys, I've updated my BIOS today with 'InsydeFlash' with nothing open and everything looked perfect, said the program was a success and restarted.

  Now the laptop looks like its broke, it lights up but nothing. However, it tries to read the CD in the status bar that resembles his tent to recover himself. Any ideas? The problem is that it's barely out of warranty

  Hello!

  Akuma may be good but try this workaround too:
  Remove the battery and the AC adapter. Wait an hour and after that connect the two devices again. Now, you can try to restart the laptop.

  If it doesn t work it seems that, during the BIOS update something goes wrong and the module ROM needs to be reflashed. But it is possible to an authorized service provider

• HP Pavilion Elite m951of: update the BIOS

  My computer BIOS is American Megatrends, Inc. 5.35 12/16/08. I want to run a program that requires a virtual machine. It seems that my BIOS is virtualization support nt. It seems that my BIOS may not be updated to support virtualization. My understanding of this is correct? If this is the case, is there a workaround?

  Please see this document from HP called 'BIOS for motherboard Asus IPIBL - LB Benicia settings'. Scroll down to the section titled "The Power menu settings" for the location of this option in the BIOS. To enable in BIOS, select the "Power" tab and change "Virtualization technology" from "Disabled" to "enabled."

  BUT according to the specifications of your system, the processor, a Q8200 does NOT support virtualization. You must upgrade to a processor which, according to the specifications of your system is compatible with support virtualization as the Q9xxx series. Please see this page "upgrade processor information".

• Split 13 x 2 can't update the bios

  I have a new split of HP 13 X 2 computer laptop / tablet. I have upgraded to Windows 8.1. Tried to update the system BIOS but it fails. I have Kaspersky Anti-virus turn off when you run the update and my account is Administrator status. Evry time I try and update the bios, I get an error "failure" and said copy update has failed. What should I do to fix this?

  Just flashed manually with a USB key. Appears the utility tries to copy the update to the bios on hp/efi/bios on partition 2, but I can't find how to go from Windows, even with hidden folders to display. The update tool the wish was easier and you can specify where you put the update from version 'dumbed down too low to be useful.

  Steps to Flash manually:

  1 use the bios tool to copy the files to a recovery USB drive. It will create a Hewlett-Packard folder. In BIOS and the BIOS update, but the update f19 falls within the bios/current.

  2. with your PSU AC plugged, reboot the computer. Once the screen goes black, start hitting ESC.

  3. even if it seems you can arrow down and press ENTER to select F2, press the F2 key... without the function key.

  4. Insert the USB key, select the firmware, bios update, select the usb drive and navigate to the folder of the bios/current.

  5. you will be asked if you want to update the current bios of 16 to 19. Click bios update (forget what it actually says) and sit down and let it do its thing.

  6. restart. If you have enabled as I do of bitlocker, now you must pick up the keys. After that is done, then you have a F19 X 2.

  Have not used enough to see if 19 solves this problem of the touchpad, but refuse to do workaround above.

• HP Elitedesk 800 G2 SFF: external hard drive not detected in the BIOS. Only USB Flash drives are detected.

  Hi all

  I received recently 2 new HP desktop computers.

  HP Elitedesk 800 G2 SFF

  HP Elitedesk 800 G2 TWR

  The goal is to test our real W7 x 64 image on these machines and to inject the missing drivers in the image.

  MDT 2010 to create a deployment on a USB hard disk drive.

  This disc of deployment is already used on 16 different models of HP in the company (Elitebook, zBook, EliteDesk) to install our image so I know it works.

  Unfortunately, the two HP Elitedesk 800 G2, I can't start the boot disk but I cannot to USB for a USB key.

  The USB drive is not detected and not proposed in the BIOS Menu of STARTUP.

  Only the internal HD, external USB Flash Disk, DVD and network devices are detected.

  Here's what I already checked or tried:

  • Latest Version of the BIOS installed (2.05)
  • UEFI Boot has been disabled. (not supported by our record of deployment)
  • USB ports are enabled (front and rear).
  • All types of USB devices are allowed in the BIOS
  • The start command has been changed to start with USB devices.
  • Legacy support is active and Secure Boot disabled
  • Delete the keys to secure boot
  • Reset secure by default startup keys
  • This morning, I created a new disk deployment on a USB Flash drive and it works!

  So, it seems that only Flash USB drives are detected.

  I know it is possible to return the flag removalble on a USB device to cheat the system and make it appear as a disk fixed, but I want a simple solution.

  Does anyone know a fix or a workaround for this problem?

  Thanks in advance!

  For those interested in the answer, here's the final results.

  It turns out that the hard 500 GB external drive can be detected if it is fomatted in FAT32.

  It's strange because my 16 GB USB Flash drive formatted in NTFS works very well.

  In any case, I'll create a FAT32 Partition to the Boot MDT files and put my picture (because the file is too big for FAT32 partition) on the secondary partition (formatted as NTFS).

  Thanks to the technical pre-sales team of HP who helped me with this!

• X 1 carbon (Gen3 20BS) may not start, nothing else than to the BIOS

  Yesterday I had a few pilots, as well as the update of the BIOS updates. BIOS seems to update successful (now its 1,14), all under BIOS works. I had 2 OS: win10 and Ubuntu with grub. I've been a happy user of all these for several months, but...

  The problem is that I can't start any OS or OS installation even after an update of pilot (which was done through Lenovo utility for Win10)! Recovery ISOs, diagnostic tools... Nothing can be started. BTW, I know how to deal with secure boot and legacy mode. I can handle start the process of starting anything listed above, but they all have the same behavior. That they freeze at the beginning. Everything that involves just ACPI hangs at startup. Linux crashes after the message "ACPI Tables successfully asked" or sth like that. Win10 displays the points that go around 1 second and then crashes. If I add "acpi = off" to Linux boot options, it starts (but almost nothing works there without acpi support). Things that do not work for ACPI. For example, I can update the BIOS of drinks ISOS. It still does not help because my BIOS version is the most recent and it does not restore.

  It cannot be the hardware problem such as it appeared after Windows drivers updated and flashed a firmware (not BIOS, but I don't know what it was exactly). I can access the data on the SSD and you can see some newspapers if necessary.

  Hope of assistance how Flash again all the firmware on laptop boot USB possible? What can be flashed with the exception of the BIOS?

  In response to customer relationships which, after a BIOS update to some ThinkPads, the system may not start, suspended at the Windows startup screen, Lenovo provided a Service COUNCIL detailing workaround. A permanent solution is provided through future BIOS update.

  Reference:

  Updated the BIOS

  It is the opinion of the Expert that you shouldn't depend on HP Support AWizard when it comes to BIOS updates.

  According to other factors in the system at the time when the HPSA trying to hit your system with an update of this type; the results could be... other than expected.

  You can set 'Notification' HPSA to prevent it from trying to update your BIOS.

  DON'T update the BIOS when you see an update in your Web page of the computer AND that this update can be used to provide a fix for a problem that you have discovered in your system.  In other words: If your computer is happy, do not update the BIOS just because you think it would be a good thing to do.

  If you decide to update your BIOS

  • Make sure that ALL backups are up-to-date and complete - this means that everything you need to restore the system in case something goes wrong.
  • Understand that even when you do everything exactly right, you can end up with a bricked computer, that is an expensive paper weight.
  • Make sure you have at least your critical data on some form of external backup.
  • Unplug the USB drives and other useless material.  Desktop keyboard and mouse can stay connected.
  • Always run power cable to update the BIOS, never on the laptop battery
  • Touch the system during the update is underway
  • Optional: Leave wireless ONbutton. You could turn off the router to ensure that there is no interruption.

  If you still get into trouble, see: restore the BIOS

• The Bios Dell lapttop upgrade program will not work.

  Downloaded a laptop Inspiron 1501 Dell Bios upgrade win1501263.exe to fix a first battery problem.  However the program is is not running.  When it is activated according to the Dell there is a quick observation on a back screen and then nothing.  What is required to run the program and upgrade the Bios?

  If you check the integrity of your download to verify the MD5 signature, then the file is probably bad... which is compatible with several other posts on this topic that you find with a quick search on Google.

• The new HD does not appear in the bios or in disk management?

  Upgrading to a new computer with win7.  I want to add my old HD as a second HD for the computer.  I installed and connected to the power source and the SATA cable.  The HD may not appear anywhere on the computer.  It is not in disk management or in the bios? Any help would be appreciated.

  Hello

  Sometimes, a 'new' disk is not picked up by Windows. EaseUS Partition Master is a program that I found a workaround, download here: http://download.cnet.com/Easeus-Partition-Master-Free-Edition/3000-2248_4-10863346.html?tag=mncol;1 .

  Once installed, it should recognize your drive and allow you to repartition / reformat to use with Windows 7.

  Let me know if this solves the problem for you.

  Kind regards

• Update the BIOS

  Hello

  can someone tell me the Bios updates for my machine?

  I need one that is more aggressive on material resources. The appropriate drivers for the GPU would be nice as well. Reading from data bases of Geekbench, this machine is never more than a pretty paperweight to research.

  Thanks for reading

  Details in the following way:

  Motherboard: Apple Inc. Mac-B809C3757DA9BB8D iMac17, 1

  BIOS: Apple Inc. IM171.88Z.0105.B08.1604111319

  Memory: 32768 Mo 1867 MHz DDR3

  Processor: Intel Core i7 - 6700K @ 4.00 GHz

  GPU: AMD Radeon R9 M395X 4096 MB

  macpraxis,

  You confuse a Mac to a Windows window. Mac do not have a bios but they have firmware, if there is any necessary updates to your machine, they are available in the software updates which is located in the Mac App Store. If nothing comes, while your system is up to date and should be left alone.

  If you encounter any problem, perhaps to let us know what it is would open the way for getting help.

• How Flash the BIOS if you cannot start Windows

  Hello

  I have a BIOS virus which prevents ANY version of any operating system Windows to boot at all.

  (Linux will start and run fine)

  So, to solve this problem, I need re-flashing the BIOS.

  Problem is... HP offers only the BIOS as an executable Windows utility.

  Can someone help me figure out a way to Flash the BIOS WITHOUT Windows?

  THX

  Now, in response to this topic, I discovered a solution...

  HPBIOSFILE.exe - writeromfile /-writehexfile /-writehdrfile

  I hope this helps some of you.

  To use this...

  (1) download the executable file (.exe) for BIOS update for your motherboard

  (2) a copy of the program flashing of Award Bios BACK (Google it, easy to find)

  (3) obtain a downloadable copy of the BACK 6.22 (of Microsoft) and create files to start this one.  (possibly another computer to do this).

  (4) start your computer affected in BACK 6.22

  (a) copy the files in a directory

  "(b) using the bold line above... type the name of your BIOS instead of the HPBIOSFILE.exe file ' and run the command.

  You will find yourself with a ROM file, a BIN file and a header file.

  You can now re-Flash your BIOS on your HP computer outside of a Windows environment.

  ENJOY!

• Jet 7 Tablet 5709: HP Jet 7 touch screen does not work in Windows even if it works in the BIOS menu advanced starup

  Less than two months ago, I upgraded my HP Jet Windows 7 to 10. Over time some questions popped up (random apps that could not be opened, etc.) so I decided to do a full reset, deleting the files from the user. Once the 'install' process is complete he brought me to the initial configuration for Windows 10 screen, asking me my keyboard and language preference. He would not accept any contact entry. I rebooted it and he went to the advanced configuration where I could use the touch screen to do a complete reset. That has not changed anything. I found the info on the HP website and did a reset of the BIOS. That has not changed anything. I got an OTG cable, but was not able to get a keyboard work. I did, however, get a mouse works and has managed to create a new user and login. However, the touchscreen does not work in Windows. I was able to get into the settings and looked at the Device Manager settings. There was only a mouse driver listed under Human Interface. I also noticed a number of question marks in the subtopic of the processor drivers.

  I was able to use the OTG cable to try to re - install Windows 10 from a USB key. When a similar initial settings (language, keyboard) screen broke, I couldn't use the touchscreen. Later, I created a USB with Windows 8.1 thinking he might have a better chance. The same problem. He does not touch inputs. And with a key USB installed via the OTG cable, I can't launch a mouse at the same time.

  It is strange that I have not the problem in the BIOS or advanced startup options. It seems that there is a corruption somewhere, but how do I fix?

  Hello Moronihah,

  You did a clean install (delete all files and programs) the 2nd time you reinstalled Windows 10?

  That's what you need to do first.

  Then, you have to go to the HP website and install the drivers on your USB.

  Above all, you need to include the Goodix Touch Controller Driver and pilot, allowing Malta G-Sensor.

  HP Software and Driver Downloads

  You're using a hub 4 ports with your OTG cable? Which will allow you to use the mouse, the keyboard and the entire USB drive.
