• Update Bios on Equium L350 now keeps restarting to load windows screen?

  So after reboot it load up of home toshiba as usual... screen then the screen of windows then bam a quick flash of a blue screen then the computer restarts and repeats this process!

  What is the solution? Need your help.

  Thank you

  Hello

  It seems that the laptop starts fine but the Windows operating system may not start correctly.
  In your case, I recommend once again to start and to access the BIOS.
  Here, you must set it to the default settings and must save the changes.

  In addition, you should boot from the Windows CD and must attempt to reinstall new OS.
  If this will not help so I assume that something was wrong during the update of the BIOS and the BIOS should be reflashed again.

  Unfortunately the BIOS can be reflashed back only by an ASP because ASP can use a traditional BIOS version that allows you to update if you are using external USB FDD drive.

• Updating BIOS on Equium A60 to cause the BSOD?

  Hey,.
  I had my Equium A60 for a little less than 2 years and now it has started flasihing a blue screen when it works for a while, I tried to read what he says but it's too fast and then it restarts the computer! the only things I can do out there are BIOS of letters that I've now put together probably need an updated (or so I hope this is just the problem)...

  given that I've never updated the BIOS until I was wondering if I make a mistake it will cover on my extended warranty? I think I also insurance on it could someone help please?

  Hello

  This document explains how to disable the automatic restart of Windows XP after a system failure:
  http://support.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/FAQ5B01770000R01.htm

  If you turn off it does not restart the laptop and you can read the error message.
  But I think that this message is not really a help. You will get a memory address, and a common user is not able to read this BSOD.

  The BSOD appears especially because of the misconduct of software or a hardware malfunction.
  I put t think that BIOS update will help you with this problem.
  I think you should try to reinstall the operating system. Especially the new facility allows to solve software problems

  But probably the high temperature may also be responsible for these BSOD errors.
  In this case you should check the fans. Most dust and debris would be responsible for the high temperature because fans may not turn with a maximum return.

  If you have no experience a technician must clean the notebook professionally.

• Updated BIOS for Equium L20 missing docs?

  I recently downloaded the upgrade of Bios for the Equium L20 PSL2ZE.
  I need to this day with a bootable CD-ROM.

  In the FAQ, it says in the sub-heading "Option 2: update with CD-ROM" the following text:

  1 extract the zip file containing the BIOS upgrade to a temporary folder.
  2. in the folder temporary three subfolders will be generated. "docs", 'Update - 3.5' disc', 'Update - CD - R or CD - RW"
  3. how to make a bootable CD-ROM please read the *.pdf file in the "docs" folder

  Problem is the Bios upgrade download does not contain the docs with the required pdf file. How to make the CD bootable, strange!

  Can someone please send me the document.

  Thank you very much

  Hello

• Updating BIOS for Equium A60-181

  Hi, according to the toshiba site there is a new update of the BIOS for my laptop.
  I was wondering is it worth the update, unfortunately, there is no information
  provided regarding the bugfixes or improvements? Also can I use the
  Windows update tool or use the bootable CD, it's just I'm not sure
  flashing Windows XP, except if it is a procedure without normal fault?

  see you soon,

  Richard S.

  Hi Richard

  Richard you have some problems with this device? If everything works properly I don't see a reason any BIOS update.

  If you think that the update of the BIOS is necessary, you can try Windows based Bios update but please check the first Description of the Toshiba BIOS update before you continue.

  There are not a lot of advice. WLAN new driver is available and if you want, you can update. If you are satisfied, how the WIFI network for the moment no one you don't have to do anything. Leave it as it is.

  WLAN drivers, you can find under http://aps.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/ and download whenever you want.

• Equium A210 - after update BIOS problems connect to MSN Live Messenger

  Hello

  I just installed the latest update of the Bios for my Equium A210, as has been the first time results attempted this \i watched carefully and everything seems to go correctly but the laptop is restarted, it beeps and showed a checksum error, I chose the option to reboot with 'Default settings'

  Since that I got problems to connect to MSN Live Messenger and I wondered if this might be something to do with the Bios Update, it is also possible to 'come back' to the old Bios somehow?

  Thank you
  Lee

  Hello

  your question isn't really a related problem of the machine. The "Checksum Error" is normal after each update BIOS since the checksum of the BIOS which consists the BIOS settings and the version of the BIOS is not correct due to a modified version of BIOS.
  So, the next time that you update your BIOS you will get a "BIOS checksum error" again. Worry not Don t, it s nothing serious.

  With regard to your Messenger:
  1. uninstall the Messenger
  2. download the latest version from the MSN site
  3. install a new
  4. have fun

  Welcomes ;)

• Equium M50-244 has bluescreens and password requested

  Hi all
  I need your help here please, my wife Equium M50-244 just froze after 15 min. I thought out the battery could solve the problem, only now when you turn on the laptop I get blue screen and a request for password that was not supplied with the computer.

  Can anyone help before she beat the life out of me (great she´s).

  Hi friend

  I hope that you´re still alive and your wife didn t just have you beat :)

  Please give more information about your problem. It seemed the first time? And what operating system you have? Have you recently updated some drivers or installed new hardware?

  And no matter what, with this password? I mean that a password does not seem fair to nowhere! Where is this password? BIOS or Windows?

  Man, give a few specific questions with plenty of information, so people here can help you.

• Power failure during the use of Vodafone 3 G card - Equium M50

  Can anyone help me please with a problem?

  I recently bought a laptop Equium M50 to help with the work. At the same time, I bought a Vodafone 3 G data for mail recovery card electronic remote access, etc. Whenever I plug the 3G card into the appropriate slot, the laptop turns off completely. Sometimes, I am able to get a connection to the net, but in the minute of connection, the power to the laptop shuts down.

  I returned the card 3G to be informed that it works very well, I got a verification of diagnosis by PC World and they inform me that there is no problem with the laptop
  I was advised to update the BIOS that I did and realized all of the Windows updates. The problem remains though.
  I would appreciate help with this query. Everyone knows a similar problem?

  Thank you very much
  Stu

  Hello

  I heard about some problem with card Vodafone and models of Toshiba laptops. The problem must be card and a cell phone. Please contact Vodafone and check if they have a few updates available.

  Toshiba can't do anything with it. In my opinion, if the laptop slot works well there is end of liability of the manufacturer for laptop.

  Good bye

  I'm pretty sure it means there is a problem with the ATI display driver but maybe wrong - ideas?

  Have tried to use the toshiba site to download the driver for it, I'm obviously a little distraught that while I can download and extract the files I don't know what to do next in fact update driver.

  Can anyone help?
  My laptop goes down all the time thanks to this and I already ran the recovery disks, but the problem still keeps recurring.
  Its adoption by trying to play a dvd and I have not yet tried to play since this first error, but it keeps recurring.

  Any help much appreciated

  See you soon

  Hello

  I completely agree with Akuma. If the same error occurs after installation of recovery it seems to be a graphics card problem.

  Before turning to an authorized service provider, you should try to update the BIOS. You can find it on the Toshiba site.

  If the new version of the BIOS doesn't help, you need help from the ASP. Maybe the motherboard should be replaced.

• Equium M50-164: Question about timer use & battery fan

  Hello!!

  Just put your hands on my laptop equium m50-164 today and I wanted to clarify a few issues

  first of all,

  I flashed my bios with the latest version and after restarting, fan kicks at full power and has not extinguished until I put the laptop in standby mode, this seemed to fix the problem but fan seems suddenly in much more than compared to before, fortunately the fan isn't the one 100% , but more like 15-20% every 30 seconds or one minute then goes into silent mode the fan does not reach 100%, unless I have do a reboot :),.

  I know the fan will accelerate faster based on the use of the processor (thermal) etc. but is this normal? I talked to support and they wanted me to have an immediate replacement, but I said that I would wait a few days to see if she could calm :)

  and finally looking at the electricity meter and other software tools there seems to be no calibration of the battery, with previous laptops, I noticed that numeric calculations are made based on the use of the battery and time [i.e. a timer] but with this laptop that I kind find a timer - I would of thought tha any computer laptop has this facility today!

  any advice would help

  see you soon

  Hi ephid0r

  If the Toshiba service makes an instant replacement if you should take it.
  Maybe there's something wrong with the hardware or software.

  But as Feliks has suggested, you must first reinstall the Toshiba Power Manager.
  This utility is responsible for the CPU and the cooling module activations.

  PS: The time of battery life indication occurs if you move the cursor over the icon of standby power.
