Update bios on DV6 can close

I have a 64 bit computer laptop Dv6.  I got a notice to update the bios on support assistant.  I had never used the wizard before, so decided to try it.  The process seemed to go well, and then he hit 'install' mode  I received a message that it would take about 90 dry and do not turn off the computer.  It has been almost 2 hours and I'm looking at a black screen.  The fan works, and the only activity flashing light press the caplock, the light on the power button, light on the wireless power button (which I can not turn off) and the light of perimeter on the touchpad.  Nothing works.  Now, I tried to shut down the PC with the button of power without success.  It's just locked running.  Before I unplug the unit and remove the battery to close, I thought that I would look for a solution here.  I checked the forum on my desk and see a lot of problems after bios updates.  Does anyone have a solution for this one?

Yes,
you did a great job. Given that the process of updating the BIOS has been corrupted and so must be restored.
Now you have done it correctly.
You can still download the drivers from HP to improve the performance of your computerbut no BIOS, unless it is necessary.

Kind regards

  • ENVY dv6 - 7373ca: update BIOS WANT dv6

    Hello

    After I managed to remove the two "unknown device" - entered the W10 Device Manager clean install thanks to this forum, I tried to upgrade to the BIOSVersion F.2D Rev a dated August 26, 2014 and listed under Windows 8 (sp68425.exe) which, according to the note, HP recommends highly.

    As I was not sure if this update would work under W10, I first tried the method described (HP Notebook PC - updated BIOS) with the opening of the menu equipment Diagnostics UEFI immediately by pressing the ESC key several times, once per second, until the Boot Menu is displayed and then pressing the F2 key. But unfortunately on the HP PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI screen of my ' WANT dv6 - 7373ca "there are only four options (1. Memory test, 2. Hard drive test, 3. Language, 4. Exit) and no option called 'Firmware Management' or 'BIOS '. Because I would have preferred a BIOS update without starting the Windows operating system, is there something I can add this missing option menu Hardware Diagnostics UEFI?

    So I took the chance to run this BIOS file "sp68425.exe" in Windows 10 and everything seemed to work fine except the error message short after the new throw about 1 or 2 seconds that an error has been discovered, which needs to be solved and a percentage that was happening 100% before 10 of Windows start still.

    Now, everything seems to work ok: I can access the BIOS again much easier than the old BIOS dating sometime in 2012, I can boot Windows 10 without any error message longer, I can restore my WindowsImageBackups using the repair-CD as well as well as the SystemRestoreDrive I had both created on Windows 10. And the new BIOS version number and date are displayed under the W10 and also after the start systeminfo pressing keys ESC and F1. Is there anything else I can do to check the correct functioning of the BIOS?

    Concerning

    Seek and you will find what I found, it was supposed to be the latest version of "HP PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI" (v. 5.9.0.0) I installed immediately on the UEFI System Partition to update the old one in my laptop (c. 1.6.0.0). This provided the desired options '-update BIOS "and"BIOS-Rollback"after pressing the F2 key without having to start Windows or if this does ' t OS start.

  • Tecra S11 - replacement after HARD drive I can't update BIOS

    My HDD in Tecra S11 is dead, and I bought a new SSD.
    Everything works OK, but I can't update the BIOS again. Update utility displays an error:

    Error: Preparation of updated failed.
    You have not given permission to run the update.

    What should do? Help, please.

    > Error: Preparation of updated failed.
    > You have not given permission to run the update.

    You have administrator rights?
    Looks like the issue may be related to missing privileges that are necessary for the execution of an update.

    You can enable the administrator account, follow these steps:
    Choose command line (cmd the black box)
    In the box type net user administrator / Active: Yes
    And then disconnect. Usually, an additional user account should be visible administrator.

    Now, log in using that account and try to run the BIOS update.

    Note: in many cases the VAP (value added package) is required to run the BIOS update.
    Remember also, that the package was decompressed properly before you run the exe file.

  • Can't find an updated BIOS for Satellite A30

    Hi friends.
    I'm not found Toshiba A30-203 a new BIOS update.
    I want to install windows vista but this sccren error.
    Error message:
    "A computer has been detected and windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer.

    If this is the first time you2ve seen this Stop error screen restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps:

    The BIOS in this system is not fully ACPI-compatible. Please contact your system provider for an updated BIOS. »

    to apologize for my bad English.

    Hello

    It seems that the Satellite A30 series is a series that was shipped with the BIOS to no support for Vista.
    I think that it should be possible to install Vista after a update of the BIOS.

    But know that you will ask for the new version of the BIOS. Am I wrong? ;)

    Well, on the page of the Toshiba BIOS, you should find different versions of BIOS.
    It is very important that you check the more info option you will resume the BIOS updated. You will find information on the compatibility of the BIOS (not every version is compatible with all units).

    But as you know that Vista is not official on the market. As I remember, it should be possible to buy the operating system in January 2007.
    I think Toshiba will present a new version of BIOS for Vista in next time. So I hope ;)

  • Want DV6-7300ea problem of updating Bios with SSD

    Hello

    Recently, I swapped my HARD drive to the STRANGE Bay and put an SSD in the startup location.  Everything works fine until it was update the BIOS to the new version F.26.  After having downloaded the update and run the .exe, the computer restarts and the normal blinking screen comes up - everything seems as it should and checks the update. Then, the system reboots and what I see is a black screen with the fan turns. He accomplishes this task for 30 seconds, then stops and goes through the same routine. I left for an hour, but no progress so I removed the battery and swapped the HARD drive in the main Bay. Put running the laptop and it displays the screen "Boot Block update" and continued to work as usual.

    No idea why he won't not on-screen "update Boot Block" with the SSD in as peripheral to start?

    When you start the update of the BIOS ROM file performs a check of the configuration of the laptop. The coding of the met the STRANGE unexpected update and configuration SSD as your laptop went into a loop. When you have returned the laptop on its original config that apparently satisfied with the softpaq update BIOS and completed its task. Now, we know the results of the portable non-standard configurations on the BIOS updates.

    Thanks for posting this has happened and the final result.

    Best regards

  • Laptop HP 15-ac176na: update BIOS (Intel processors)

    Hello

    I was download the updates from the HP support Assistant.  3 updated driver installed fine, but the update BIOS for Intel processors just to be on the road all day.  It seemed to download ok, the blue bar filled and he said that it was installing, but never finished because I had to stop going to bed.

    How long does take to install?  HP laptop laptop 15-ac176na.

    Thank you

    Paul

    Hi Paul,.

    There seems to be a listed version between your and the update offered - F.1E Rev.A (provides microcode update CPU)-the HP bios updates are almost always cumulative, but I saw a few times when it's bbe made in order, then it can be interesting to see if F.1E Rev.A Flash correctly - if this is the case, try to rerun F.1F Rev.A

    F.1E Rev.A is on the following link

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp74001-74500/sp74374.exe

    Once the download is complete, close other open windows and programs, then open your download folder and double-click the installer to start the process.  The real flash will occur when you restart the machine - do not interrupt it somehow, even if nothing seems to be happening for a while - when it is finished, the machine will load in Windows as usual.

    Kind regards

  • Update BIOS on Tecra A3X

    I have Vista Business running fine with all this work and I want to update my Bios Version 1.20 at latest.
    Whenever I have to search for updates, the only one that appears is bios - 20070709164832.zip and it says:
    Update the BIOS of 07/09/07
    This Bios update adds functionality to your system.
    When the computer comes on, the BIOS is launched to perform various functions to start.)
    For more detailed updated information, please see the Information update BIOS Toshiba
    Tecra A3X 1, 40 - WIN Toshiba.
    When I run as they explain the link, it gives a stupid error:

    [Error] BIOS update is not supported for operating system. Is an operating system or Service Pack is installed. ?!?!?!

    How can I get close to it.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    I think the problem is that the update of the bios (which is using windows) doesn't work under XP, so won´t you luck because it takes a working XP and common modules installed on your machine.

    Unfortunately there is no other way to update your bios, but in your case it s is NOT necessary update the bios since the new version adds not important functions. So I think that it s not a BIG problem, and if your computer is running well, then ' that one ' and follow the good old "never change a system up and running.

  • Why can't I minimizes exceeding 2 Notepad in FF? I used to be able to minimize the notebooks as much as I wanted to. FF must have made an update and now I can't do that. Is there a setting I can change that will allow me to do?

    1. Question

    Why can't I minimizes exceeding 2 Notepad in FF? I used to be able to minimize the notebooks as much as I wanted to. When I search on a topic I keep several notebook open until I finished. FF must have made an update and now I can't do that. Is there a setting I can change that will allow me to do it again?

    Also at this time, the length of the sentence, I type has changed.
    There is no limit for how far she can extend to the right.

    Help, please. I'm not very irritable and don't understand Computerese.
    Please explain in English every day.
    Thanks in advance,

    bouquet

    Bouquet,

    Great to hear that your problem is finally solved.

    Regarding 2nd query you have raised, it is not possible to have the program running if you turn OFF the computer (it's like saying you want the bulb to keep bright despite off). When stop you the machine, you turn off the power... so there is no way that the current state maintained. When start the computer again the next time it starts on new.

    But there are 2 options that can help you with your problem: -.

    1 SAVE your changes before you close the program, and choose next time when you start the computer

       File ->Open (This way your work is preserved and you need not start afresh next time onwards)
    

    2. instead of turning off the computer, choose to Hibernate. When Hibernate you (and NOT CLOSE) the current state is preserved. This means that if you leave the notebook running he will remain in the same State when you next start your computer the next time.

    PS: as this forum is for the FF to discuss related issues, I propose that for further assistance e-mail me at my personal mail ID [email protected]' rather than discuss it here on this forum

    Now your problem is solved with kindness mark this as closed discussion (marking/choice of appropriate solution helped you)

  • Portege 3410 - how to update BIOS and install XP?

    Hello, I have two questions on Portege 3410.

    First: I can't update the BIOS (current usage, 1.50 there, I want to update to 1.60). Instruction does not work: I connect Teac USB into USB port, turn on the USB - FDD emulation to activate, portable switch with pressed F12, the message «Ready to update BIOS...» "appears, I touch in a hurry, but nothing happened. What's wrong?

    The other: I can't install Windows XP on laptop (it does not start from USB disk or external USB DVD drive).
    How can I install Windows?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Just a question: why do you want to update the BIOS? Is this really necessary?
    I ask this question because this update is always somewhat risky and you might damage it ROM module
    In any case, have you tried to load the default settings in the BIOS before you start the update and install XP?

    You can install XP without CD. Therefore, you must copy the folder i386 on the HARD drive from another computer and the boot to the HARD drive files, I think you need a little search with Google to find a workaround for this. You should find enough! ;)

    I found your laptop on the Toshiba support page we:
    http://support.Toshiba.com/support/modelHome?FREETEXT=1364534
    Here, I could also find compatible BIOS version.

    I downloaded the BIOS package (this is the exe file). But could I unzipped the package by clicking right and select unpack here.
    I found the Readme.txt file in the BIOS folder. You will find instruction how the BIOS updated to work.
    There was also a notice indicating that BIOS KeyInstallation method, can sometimes be used to recover from failure. If it is not the case, you will need to contact Toshiba authorized Service Provider (ASP) to solve this :(

  • Recovery HP 2000 - 2b89WM w / HP discs, update BIOS using XP 32 bit

    HP 2000-2b89WM, product c2m42ua #aba, apparently Win8, 64-bit.

    I'm trying to help a friend with a dead laptop. Hard drive has been damaged and the machine does not start. Got a new hard drive and the discs of HP recovery, but the recovery discs just to say that the recovery has failed, and is log file refers to two other log files that do not exist. So.

    I'm trying to Flash the BIOS with the latest version - maybe that will help you. Problem is the only computer I have available to create a disc USB with BIOS on this subject is a 32-bit XP (Dell) machine. The BIOS utility decompresses the files, but after saying he can do (updated this device, create USB recovery, copy the BIOS image), it blocks the XP machine.

    1. How can I get the BIOS image (apparently a .bin file is of sync, not in the utility decompressed files) on the USB so I can update the BIOS? (I can get to diagnostic mode, but it does not have the BIOS file on the USB key).

    2. any other recommendations to get the recovery disks to start? (Tried to set clock to 2012, reset the BIOS by default. Recovery discs are blank - no scratches, no dust.)

    The "supplement" thought of it - drive was causing the problem. I used the 3 DVD system and when he asked for the extra disc, I said to Skip - and everything was fine.

    No idea what was on this disc of supplement. The label says the drivers and applications, but the actual content was a bunch of folders with absurd names. No request.

  • Satellite A200-10W - update BIOS need

    I've got A200-10W for a few years and a year and a half I decided to change the form of Vista 64 bit do Windows 7 64 bit, I installed it, everything worked fine until a month ago what problems began to occur.

    When the BIOS screen it shows sometimes freezes and sometimes takes a minute to move to Windows 7 loading screen, I checked the BIOS version and it's 1.40 (yes I'm a fool to update only not earlier), so I decided to update the BIOS but I can't find no updates except 1.80 for Vista 32 bit can someone please help with this? =(

    SRY for grammar bar

    Hey,.

    I agree with Akuma. You can always try the 32-bit version of Vista, it s has nothing to do with your 64-bit system. If it s is not compatible, you get an error message.

    But unfortunately I doubt THAT BIOS will help you. If the computer hangs at the BIOS screen, that it might be related to hardware. Possibly peut t computer recognize part of properly hardware like RAM, HARD drive, or something else.

    Until you try to update the BIOS to load the defaults (F9 key). Save & Exit new parameters and test again if the error occurs or not.
