  Awesome! Can't believe that they sent us a recommended update that has serious problems like that. I'll be a lot more careful with future updates! Glad I could help you solve... I was in major panic mode when it happened and I looked at some of the forums...

• Update BIOS Satellite 1730

  I want to update BIOS and who have already downloaded and the file dezipped. This file that I copied to a floppy disk. In the description they say I have to restart the computer and press a certain key (F12 or the left of the space bar). But it did not work. Does anyone know how to do this?

  Guenter.

  Hello

  on this model you do not need to press F12 or another key. Just unzip the packege BIOS on a blank floppy disk, reboot the machine and make sure it boots from the floppy disk. The upgrade of the BIOS will be done automatically.
  Make sure that you have the power adapter plugged!

• 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

• 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 ;)

• Satellite 1410-604-BIOS update > update BIOS Incorrect in the web?

  Hi there again!

  Now with a new and strange issue.

  We all know that tell old... "If it does not break, don't fix it." And if you put in more computer terms, "especially if it's a BIOS.

  Yes, we all know that the BIOS is something quite dellitate to manage. For some reason, we normally feel as if we manage something like nitroglycerine, or radioactive products. And it's because we all know who is put at risk at the moment: our (or sometimes other) computer, the whole system could end up as dead as some pieces of metal, plastic and son.

  Well. I passed through all of this, more than 10 times in my life, and only once, it went wrong. But since this old motherboard was already dead, it was not important. But I've always been EXTREMELY care. Allways cross checked everything before you do anything, allways has a backup and a way to allways and restore that backup... I did COMPAQ systems, which have been prepared in this way. A BIOS update was about about a disc, turn on the PC with the disk in the floppy drive and wait. And if you don't like the results, you just click on 'back to a previus BIOS' and that was it... very nice. And easy.

  A few days ago a friend gave me a Toshiba Satellite 1410 604 to solve some problems that have been her crazy. After you remove a Norton Internet Security has expired, install avast and scan, I found more than a hundred of files infected with a variety of viruses, malware, trojans, and everything you could imagine. Avast all removed, but the rest of the operating system was so unstable that we decide to format it and install from scratch.

  I asked for the restore disks, which obviously it failed because they were lost in one of his trips. After that we had confirmation of Toshiba representatives there is no disk recovery available for this model, because it is too old, we decided to install from scratch like any other normal PC and resigned to losing some of the utilities accompanying that CD and are not available for download on the Web site.

  I downloaded all the software available for this model, including two updates to the BIOS. (In reality an update, but in two versions: Windows and traditional) and prepared a CD with all the drivers and programs as if it were a new system installation. And everything was fine, no problems at all. Until we arrived at the wireless LAN card, but that's another problem is already solved (the mini PCI card for the WLAN does not support the encriptación WEP or WAP, and it is not possible to connect to any LAN encripted wireless).

  At this point, and when I started setting up and activation of peripheral PCMCIA and USB devices (this computer only supports USB 1.1, 2.0 not) I discovered this text from Toshiba Web site:

  "This Bios update adds functionality to your system.
  (BIOS stands for Basic Input and Output System. This program is stored in a chip memory dead on the motherboard.
  When the computer comes on, the BIOS is launched to perform various functions to start.)

  For more detailed updated information, please refer to Information update BIOS Toshiba"

  Quite specific. Isn't?)

  According to the information in this Web site, the available BIOS fits the following models:

  "Satellite 2410 414, Satellite 1410, Satellite 1410 - 654S, Satellite 1410 814, Satellite 2410-303, Satellite 2410-304 s, Satellite 1410 354, 2410-601 Satellite, Satellite 1410-401, {color: #ff0000} * Satellite 1410 604 * {color}, Satellite 2410-404, Satellite 1410-301, Satellite 1410-304, Satellite 2410 S403, Satellite Pro 2100, Satellite 1410 S203, Satellite 2410-304, Satellite 1410 554, Satellite 1410 S102, Satellite 1410 - 354F, Satellite 2410 703, Satellite 1410-303, Satellite 2410 - S203, Satellite 1410-801, Satellite 2410 603, Satellite 1410-902. ', Satellite 1410-313, Satellite 1410-802, Satellite 1410 714, Satellite 2410-354, Satellite 2410 514, Satellite 1410-614, Satellite 1410 704, Satellite 2410 515, Satellite 2410-504, 2410-702 Satellite, Satellite 1410 S103.

  Yes... it's here!

  Now when you go into the "Toshiba BIOS update information", you get:

  "Ref. FAQ: TRO0000000b07.

  A BIOS update is a {color: #ff0000} * operation is relatively simple and can be done by computer more competent users * {color}. All BIOS updates can be obtained from "BIOS update" Section download click here...

  Note: the BIOS files are specific machine the correct BIOS for your machine should be used. »

  Please note that Toshiba does not disencourage BIOS manipulation, on the contrary: they even encourage people to do. It is not badly needed, but at the same time that they encourage people to 'play' with such a delicate question, at the end of this page, in small letters, they say:

  "Toshiba provides this information"as is"{color: #ff0000} * without warranty of any kind * {color}, explicit or implied, including, but not limited to, the implied warranties of quality market or adequacy has a specific use." Toshiba shall not be liable to the topicality, accuracy, completeness or quality of the information provided. {color: #ff0000} * Toshiba is not responsible for damage caused by the use of any information provided, including incomplete or incorrect information * {color}. »

  This should trigger yellow alarms in our minds.

  + "Human error is inherent in man, and it is not possible to eradicate. It will be displayed always, sooner or later"(Prof. James Reason). +

  And finally, I made the mistake. Although I have read this warning, I remembered all these successful BIOS update with COMPAQ and relied for Toshiba. This update was available there, and Toshiba told me that it was for this computer. Great!

  So finally, I disconnected all devices (USB), removed the PCMCIA (WLAN), plugged the battery charger to avoid any possible battery problem, restarted windows, and then Windows started the update (windows version, such as recommended by Toshiba). This drug looked very nice, nothing different from what I usually see on these old COMPAQs.

  As reported by the update program, the system would restart. And in fact he did.

  Windows normally closed (a little faster than normal, but without mistakes, and since there is no other programs that most - even the antivirus not working - no), the computer turned off, all lights (normal) offshore, and then again on...

  {color: #0000ff} * BEEEEEEEEEEEEP... BEEEP... ... BEEEEP * {color}

  OMG! I never movement something SO bad. 3-1-1!

  And now... What a 3-1-1 is here? Award BIOS would mean no card graphics or video deffective card, but it is not true, because it worked 20 seconds ago. There are BIOS.

  He never came again to life. He's still 3-1-1 beep.

  But now comes the investigation on the human factors involved in this accident.

  I found I committed the following errors:

  * (1) * rely in the constructor, even if they have WRITTEN their information may be incorrect or incomplete. (BAD if I was a detective QA & QC).

  * (2) * I cross checked deep enough (until it was already too late).

  * (3) * I haven't looked above for how to make a backup of the BIOS to restore must anything deceive you.

  * (4) * let Toshiba lead me to a path that I didn't walk, just because of their supply of 'increased functionality.

  * (5) * Beleave in Toshiba when they said "relatively simple operation and can be performed by the most competent computer users"... they never said it is infallible. "."

  Then I began the most interesting part of the investigation.

  {color: #0000ff} * "what went wrong?" * {color}

  Obviously, the update of the BIOS has not somewhere, somewhere. And I wanted to know what and where.

  First thing, I discovered that there is another Toshiba search engine called "askiris" ([http://askiris.toshiba.com]) and I looked to see if, for any chance I could get the old BIOS 1.20 version which was installed at the origin of this machine.

  And I found something... VERY interesting:

  GOOD! Or not?

  Let's take a look:

  First thing I did was download all four files.

  Then I took the same version that made the accident: 1.40

  I unzipped the file, which I found:

  And I got my first surprise here: there is a {color: #ff0000} * README. TXT * {color} that was not present in the file that I downloaded earlier from the repository of drivers.

  So I went the readme.txt and I found this:

  'README. CDC TXT 31/01/2003

  Satellite 2410-S204.

  Please note that the model 1410-604 is * NOT * listed.

  I thought ' well, there must be another archive... ". »

  But then I realized a name that seems familiar, that is, in the directory where I unzipped this file 1.40, and the name is:

  {color: #0000ff} * 2410A9V140. EXE * {color}

  So I took the other file, the update of BIOS_Win, and I discovered that the name of the file is:

  * {color: #0000ff} 2410A9V140. EXE, {color} * (Ups!)

  So I once again, uncompressed to find:

  * {color: #ff0000} they have two 20 files and 1 046 461 bytes. I asumed that they are the SAME two folder {color} *.

  And the readme file does not list the model 1410-604 in its readme file, so I can't explain it except as a Toshiba error. * {color: #ff0000} they put an incorrect BIOS on their website and has proposed updating and somehow lead to such mistakes. {color} *.

  (Except in the case that one of these models is a name that is different from the model 1410-604, and if that's the case... now I don't know why this BIOS do not work with this computer).

  The worst thing is that neither the other files (V1.10, 1.20 and 1.30) lists the 1410-604, apparently so no solution possible workaround for this problem. I need an original v1.20 to the CMOS, and Toshiba seems to have. They offered me to solve the problem, leaving the laptop to an ASP, and pay only € 95 for the work and about € 280 for a motherboard replacement, I will get it resolved. But they offer no guarantees of their possibilities because is a model "too old" and "abandoned" and "unsupported"...

  In other words, they said 'you don't have to bother with it, just go and buy a new' (something of quite out of my reach in this time of crisis): P

  Thanks for reading so far.

  Now, what I need is to get ideas on a work around for this, my ideas are:

  (1) the CMOS has some startup that works (it allows a roll-back if you have the appropriate file). So I need a good BIOS to burn in the CMOS memory, the SAME SAME model (a backup BIOS) but the backup should be sufficient for the burning program (CHGBIOSA.COM).

  (2) it is always possible that the BIOS might be OK, but the CMOS data has been corrupted somehow. If so, the CMOS of compensation could solve problem. But I wasn't able to find a clear cmos from the outside button, and after disasembling I took battery, with no good result. I try to leave the MOBO without battery for a period more long (I left it about 20 seconds) just in case where 20 seconds are not all capacitors for well pass zero values. I don't have a lot of hope in this point.

  (3) try to get a REAL good update from Toshiba. I contacted technical support several times, and I was able to verify that they are only - phone operators, with a script in front of them, and when the problem is going - out of reach, they fall in the same response: "you must go to an ASP. I still have a faint hope to find someone who really knows a little and could illuminate with a good BIOS in this disc.

  (4) as far as I could find, this BIOS is not any BIOS-manufacturer known. It seems that it has been developed by Toshiba (own brand), so the Phoenix crisis recovery disk won't be of any help here. As well as any other BIOS recovery tool not designed for Toshiba BIOS. But I'm open to all ideas, which could be put to the test more or less safely. (Remember that the 'BIOS-BOOT-PART' feature still works, I don't want to lose that possibility alone of redemption).

  Wwwaaaaoooowww... what a falks long post! Sorry about that!

  Forgive me, but I wanted to be really clear.

  Someone give some tips or advice will be greatly appreciated.

  Please don't say that I shouldn't be doing... I already know that. I already did some research and found my mistakes, not to repeat them. Now, I need to spend, to move and to try to solve this problem, or at least learn to solve similar things. As much as possible.

  Thank you once again, in advance, and sorry again.

  Hi Fenix,

  Wow... He tooked a lot of time to read your post...

  Maybe I can help you.

  The Bios in the website is the right one. If you have downloaded the right version of the Bios.

  Toshiba America, which has most of the time the Askiris you used isn't accurate models for Toshiba Europe.
  This should be the reason, why does not the readme file contain the European model.

  I'll try to do an update of the fresh Bios using the update of the traditional Bios.

  Copy the files on the disk, put it in the floppy drive, press and hold power on the notebook tab.
  After that the laptop is off, press on and hold the key on the left side of space power on the laptop new bar and wait until it turns off again.

  If your laptop does not power perhaps the most, the RAM is default?

  Therefore, if the use of the traditional Bios or change memory doesn't help, and your laptop is still dead you should go to a SPA, but it will cost money.

  I now have my fourth Toshiba laptop and I had never problems with the Bios updates.

  The 1410 is very old I think, so before you go to a SPA, I'd buy a new ;)

  Best regards

• 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 ;)

• ProBook 640 G2: [SOLVED] cannot update Bios Probook G2 640

  I want to update the Bios of a Probook G2 640, Win 7 Pro 64.

  On the HP site, there is a download for v01.02

  http://h20564.www2.HP.com/hpsc/SWD/public/detail?sp4ts.Oid=8430732 & swItemId = ob_163103_1 & swEnvOid = 405...

  Downloaded the file SP74154, there ran, questioned restarted the laptop: the result I got after startup:

  "The system cannot find one of the binaries updated BIOS. Please make sure that the correct BIN file

  is located on the hard disk of the system or on a removable USB under the folder "Hewlett-Packard\BIOS\New.

  or under the folder "EFI\HP\BIOS\New". It can also be placed in the folder "Hewlett_Packard\BIOS\Previous".

  or under the folder "EFI\HP\BIOS\Previous".

  [OK]

  Even though I made records and put in .bin, executed files the file of SP74514 even once, I got the same message and the BIOS is not updated.

  Gladly would he because we have problems with the wifi does not work after that we disconnect it and bring it in a conference room.

  If anyone has a solution?

  THX!

  Ok

  Can manually create you a folder EFI\HP\BIOS\New

  on the flash drive, then paste it N87_0102.bin it

  For example E:\EFI\HP\BIOS\New\N87_0102.bin

  Then, restart, type F10 to update the BIOS and see if it will work?

  Alternatively, restart the computer, press F1 for information system to keep. Once it opens, please copy and paste all the information here, especially product number, info motherboars and ROM version or something similar - what is there...

  Forward to your response.

• Update BIOS to HP8100 Elite SFF

  Often when I restart, the HP logo appears, the system hangs.  Another time does work ' t mouse after a reboot, and I have to unplug the USB port and use a different port. I thought that an update of the bios can solve these problems.   However, I am not clear when I go to the HP support network. It gives two options for the Bios 786 H 1 upgrade. From v1.04 to v1.05 and other v1.09 for v1.13. I V1.05 on my computor, does that mean it is up-to-date, or can I switch to V1.13? OS: Windows 7 64-bit sp1Windows 7 64 bit sp1

  I don't have a 8100 Elite so can only reference the docs from HP

  BIOS version 1.13 is the latest available for your 8100 Elite. If you look at the history of revisions for this release, you'll notice that it exposes all the fixes and improvements (normally) that have occurred since the first version.

  Curiously, on the Review tab history of 1.13, it shows nothing before v1.08 but this version may not be the initial relase. Earlier versions of the bios are (and only 1.02 is actually documented as initial version in the release notes). I suspect that the reason is simply a change in HP/web documentation. Maybe it's because HP has simply changed the layout of the web page in the "release history" tab to include the actual corrections and improvements for each version (at the time the v1.05-> update 1.08 took place) and rather that fix HP old bios version documents/pages to reflect a new way of presenting history, HP has simply created a new branch of the document and ignored the old versions (with no notes to clarify the question)... But really, who knows why he is documented in two different ways...

  The important thing is that bios v1.13 clearly indicates it is compatible with your elite 8100 sff and corrects a post blocking problem when certain hardware is plugged into a usb port. As you post hang questions, it is best to upgrade to the latest version of bios 1.13. Just take note that with the 1.13 update, he not do it back as mentioned in the release notes...

  And if the bios does not have the grip of the post, then you may have other problems. First try update bios v1.13

• Satellite Pro A300 (PSAG9E) - after updating BIOS Windows will not start

  Restart went well after update BIOS and Windows XP logo appears loads for a few seconds then a beep and restart - last good known or start Windows normally same effect.
  Reboot back to start - this is a new laptop - using the BIOS of Toshiba s official download site.

  Quite annoyed to try to find a way to upgrade or downgrade the BIOS.
  Took battery and RAM to see if I can delete it?

  Any ideas anyone?

  I think you mean BIOS * update * and do not upgrade ;)
  An upgrade is not possible

  However, you can try to remove the battery and the AC adapter and wait an hour. After that, reconnect the battery and the AC adapter and try to start Windows.
  Moreover I would load the default settings in the BIOS before starting Windows.

  If it doesn't work, it seems that your ROM module needs to be reflashed. In this case an ASP can help you.

• Update BIOS of Tecra 8100

  I try to get a DVD/CD to work my BIOS is outdated (2.30) so I download the last excerpt from BIOS (2.50) maybe the file, delete all devices PCMCIA cards etc, stop all programs and start than the windows upgrade.

  He arrived in the 'screen now update the BIOS' and crashes.

  Fortunately a restart is triggered the machine again (wonder what he did). A quick check tells that the BIOS is always 2.30

  Run the traditional BIOS upgrade program and he writes some stuff for a dsiskette disk. Restart the machine from the floppy, and... nothing! "Just hangs their with A: > if I type DIR I get a directory, then the program is finished!

  Restart (always miraculously OK), but BIOS 2.30

  Should which, if any, the files I launch
  CHBIOSA. EXE
  CHGFIRMA. EXE
  Biofc32t.com

  I relaunch the program windows and make sure the BIOS is still 2.3 (what is. No change there!)

  What should I do to upgrade the BIOS?
  Is how important it?

  Why not have it not executed automatically

  etc.

  Worried

  Hello

  Sorry, but I'm a little confused. Can you please be more specific about the problem of CD/DVD disc?
  Maybe you don't need any update to update BIOS.

  Please refer to the BIOS update. He described the BIOS update procedure. I think you forgot to follow:

  Turn on the computer laptop with the key (see photo below) that, depending on the keyboard layout, is located to the left of the space bar or to the right between the Alt Gr keys and INS. Press and hold until a short beep can be heard.

  Good bye

• Touchpad no longer works after update BIOS on Satellite A500-1GL

  Hello world

  I just bought my laptop Satellite A500-1GL today. I started at the top and plays a bit (nothing serious). The touchpad worked very well at the moment.

  Then I discovered this tool to update the material and the update of the BIOS that worked without any problems. After I restarted the laptop, BIOS, loaded the default values of the installation and recorded.
  After that Windows 7 (x 64) started the touchpad no longer works...

  I downloaded the driver here and installed again once, still does not. I went into the BIOS, disabled the touchpad (I thought that maybe it's a bug...) and started again. It still does not...

  I enabled it again in the BIOS, tried to push the function + F9, but it still does not... Finally, I used the recovery and installed a Windows 7 costs.
  But unfortunately it still doesn't.

  Now, I'm out of ideas, can anyone help?
  Is there a chance to get the older version of BIOS to downgrade it?

  Thanks in advance ;)

  Hello

  It seems strange that after update Bios touchpad no longer works.

  > Is there a chance to get the older version of BIOS to downgrade it?

  To be honest, I don't know where to find. In any case, do a search on Google. Perhaps, other users of the forum can give you a link to download.
  The downgrade of the Bios is riskier upgrade procedure. So, be careful the next time...
  Advice for the future; Do not touch the running system.

  Good luck!

• Update BIOS L430 UEFI 2.56 to 2.61 screen black

  Hi guys, been looking around for answers to this, but can not find it more precisely.

  System details:

  Lenovo Thinkpad L430 2466 3F1

  UEFI BIOS 2.56 installed

  120GB SSD installed when I bought (2nd hand but listed as 'new' - do not know how the image of the system has been installed for the SSD)

  I lived a lot of black blinking cursor problem when waking from sleep. This was addressed in 2.57 updated BIOS or UEFI 2.58 I think.

  I then started getting BSOD code 101 errors of clock. I read that was never solved by an update of the BIOS, otherwise faulty hardware. So, I looked in the BIOS update and a stress test.

  [EDIT] I tested the first processor software (Muessnor or a crazy name) of stress and monitor temperature with Speedfan. Temperatures never got above 75 degrees after 20 min of either small or large pieces/jobs/whatever they were. I read that a defective material was usually picked up in the first minutes of the race, but leave recommended it for 2 hours. Then I saw these processors running hot and cooling inventory systems are not too hot, so do not stress about this configuration test. So I took a compromise to 20 min each. Do all the no errors on the tests of 4-5. [/ EDIT]

  Now is the time to review updates to the BIOS. Lenovo has provided the software with the laptop, so I have updated this program and ran the udpater in VantageTools. Updated itself first of all, she offered me a BIOS update.

  Well, I created a system recovery disk and image of the system including system files and your data first, then closed all processes resembling processes system, disabled self-protection on Avast, shields disabled until the next reboot, process of GUI of Avast that ENDED, then allowed the BIOS update to proceed.

  I left after it restarts on the screen similar to BACK and said BIOS has 999 blocks and started moving dashed lines on the screen, expecting just continue until it has succeeded or failed.

  I came back 15 minutes later to a black screen. No cursor, only led power is green. I have heard no beep, even if I couldn't I was at the other end of the House.

  I read about a user of HP who has had this problem and support. They said to wait a few hours and see if it is finished. Called again, told to wait still. She completed successfully after a few 20hours. If you find that a link more but it is better to try this?

  Then I read about various combinations of keys (e.g., the comment by Ishaan here) to hold everything in startup, but I has not yet turned off.

  What would be more appropriate things for me to do then?

  So, I took the plunge based on this postand turned off. I then turned on, BIOS said worm 2.61 installed and Windows started. I rebooted, pressing F1, the installation program has been entered. Restarted, Windows starts again.

  Mission success, no idea why he gave the blackSOD strangely scary but...

  Problem solved.

• Pavilion g6-2215sia: CARD without WIRE NOT DETECTED AFTER UPDATE BIOS

  Recently I have updated my BIOS on my laptop HP Pavilion g6-2215sia think he'll adjust the hardware acceleration feature missing in my system (there is no option in my BIOS to enable virtualization technology). My BIOS version was F.12 and I've updated to F.24, but after update BIOS all my wireless functionality no longer works (including my wifi and bluetooth), and still there is no option to enable virtualization technology in my BIOS settings. On my Windows 8.1 x 64 Pro wifi and bluetooth options are grayed out so I can't turn them on or off. I tried to reinstall my bluetooth driver, but the software says that it doesn't detect any bluetooth hardware. Even when I restart and boot in all my Linux distributions installed on my system (Ubuntu, Quina and Kali Linux) and my x 86 Android, they still do not detect my wireless capability (says Ubuntu, "wifi is disabled by hardware switch").

  To confirm that this was not a software problem, I has conducted an audit of start-up and tested for my wireless module and got this result, "without WIRE MODULE CHECK: NOT INSTALLED". The only way I can get my Windows operating system to recognize my wireless (wifi and bluetooth) is now by doing a hard reset, when I unplug my laptop from the power supply, remove the battery and hold the power button for about 30 seconds. When I turn on my system, then I can turn my wifi/bluetooth on my Windows. But if I restart my system the problem comes back and I can't turn on my wireless. So basically, I have to avoid questioning my system off and only Hibernate, so that whenever I turn on my laptop I can use the wireless. If I restart my system so I have to repeat the hard reset in order to use my wifi/bluetooth, which can be very annoying.

  The problem is that I often use my other Linux disributions and I have to restart before starting in them so that my readers will be mounted read/write, and when I do my Linux can not detect my wireless and it's a serious pain for me because I need to use my wireless often for internet connection.

  Please I really need help on how to fix this and get my wireless working normally without having to do a hard reset every time. I tried to restore my BIOS F.12 unfounded but I don't have the image file (I extensively searched the Internet to find, but does not). I've even updated again to F.26 but I still have the same problem (my current version of BIOS is F.26).

  If you see no updates the BIOS in your list of drivers - where do you have the updates to the BIOS, you used?

  Try here - if you do not see the list of the BIOS, use the "Edit" button to change Windows 8.1 to Windows 8:

• Envy laptop: update bios still running

  I got a notice from HP that there are updates for my computer. I've updated all the recommended updates, including updated Bios. After 18 hours its always updated. How long it takes and what I'm doing now is so long?

  Hello

  The update should only take a few minutes, so if it worked for 18 hours, I'd say it's blocked - stop it should be Ok.

  When you stopped, close HPSA and download the Bios Update from the link below and save it in your downloads folder.

  http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp75001-75500/sp75152.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
