• Update BIOS B575 Lenovo

  Apparently Lenovo B575 does not offer an update on my BIOS. The reason why I asked is because the original battery went dead on me. So I brought it to 3rd party vendor. Since I put in a new battery, the laptop shut down itself, whether inside or outside the charger. I contact the seller and they told me to update my BIOS, because he's trying to find what the original battery. I look everywhere, but not a single forum helped me.

  I decided to return the back stack! Thanks for your help Shiv_K

• M92p Tiny - no bootable disc after update BIOS to 9SKT59A (dual boot Linux/Win7) GPT/EFI

  Hello

  I've updated my Lenovo ThinkCentre m92p tiny A1G 3237 - to the 9SKT59A of the BIOS version.
  I use a SSD OCZ with GRUB2 and Win7/Linux dualboot (UEFI/GPT) without any problem.

  After that the updated BIOS update it was SecureBoot activated and I couldn't start obviously GRUB2.

  Then I disabled SecureBoot and changed the boot order, but when I try to include the SSD with x, it disappears from the list excluded bootable devices but do not appear in the devices included.

  Now, I'm only able to boot using USB key where a grub2 is also installed. I'm sure it's a bug in the BIOS!

  Can anyone else confirm or solved this probem?

  See you soon

  Mijenix

  Updated the BIOS to 9sj960usa fixed the problem for me. As I was not able to boot using CD/USB-SSD, I was able to GRUB2 boot Win7 on a USB key and has used the flash .exe file.

  Hello

  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 :(

• HP Pavilion 500 series: updates Bios

  HI I was wondering tonight in my hp support center was a significant update of the Bios I was wondering if I could please get some advice on the question of whether it is a good idea to Bios if there is nothing wrong with the Bios in the first place.  Why should I update the Bios or should I not update the Bios for my hp Desktop.

  Thank you for your time and help

  In general, I agree with redshore.  I'm used to be of the opinion that if everything worked as planned, then leave it alone.  Since I use a HP ENVY laptop with Windows 8.1 one year, I noticed that the HP helper has done several updates that I probably have on my own, especially updates BIOS.  I don't know why there would be many updates to BIOS, so have to asuume engineers tried to fix a problem that had been reported.  As redshore, you always stand the risk of bricking the unit with BIOS update is bad and if you read the forums here, there seems to be more those happening.

  Some units now have a feature where a regime of BIOS recorvery is integrated, a good idea.  You might wise to explore your PC to see if the model you have this feature for a while where you might need.

• 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.

  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:

  Then another issue raised in my mind: what happened to the other file 1.40? What did the other 2410A9V140. EXE are inside?

  This:

  * {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

  Maurice

  Hello

  How have you tried to upgrade the BIOS? From the windows or have you used the traditional procedure?
  According to this document, you must use the traditional BIOS upgrade procedure.
  IOS http://eu.Computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/FAQ.jsp?z=234&service=eu&from=faq_selection&CFID=B & FID = TRO0000000b07

  But why you want to upgrade the BIOS?
  Have you had serious problems which the BIOS update can fix?
  Please note that you must pass the BIOS only if you have serious problems, and if you know that the upgrade of the BIOS will solve the problems.

• Re: Need updated BIOS for my Satellite A660

  I have an A660 (PSAW3A-07P00R) and can't at latest NVIDIA drivers under linux.

  It has been suggested that the problem I'm having can be addressed by an update of the BIOS.
  I currently have firmware BIOS 1.9 version y at - it a future update of the A660 PSAW3A-07P00R?

  If Yes, where can I get it?

  Last updated BIOS version are still available on the official page of support Toshiba so if you can't find probably it doesn t exist.

  As far as I know Toshiba doesn't offer any kind of Linux support so all offered stuff is for Windows. All available updates of BIOS are versions of WIN so it can be started under the Windows OS and I don t know how you can do it using Linux.

• Satellite L750D - update BIOS 2.1 and its problem

  Hello

  I have little problem. I was downloaded from your website 2.1 BIOS for Toshiba Satellite L750D (PSK32E).

  I have been updating BIOS 2.1 and start the problem with the sound. When I start the game, music or else minutes 2 first sound plays correctly but then it stops without reason. No noise at all. I've been reinstalled op system but the problem is still there.

  Sound works for 2 minutes only then is completely off. Each application to start with sound plays 2 minutes and stop all silent is. I did a probe on my laptop the mother she s a computer portable twin. I have updated bios same problem 2 minutes and then no sound. My OS is win 8 64 pro my laptop mother is with win 7 x 64 premium.

  Two BIOS updated ver 2.1 on L750D and the problem is the same. Please fix the BIOS.

  The BIOS seems to be very old. I was released nearly 1.5 years ago, so to be honest, I doubt that his and BIOS problem.

  I had the similar problem with my other laptop equipped with a Realtek sound card.
  The sound appeared after connection and remove the headphone jack
  But I could solve this latest installation updated audio driver the Realtek driver page.

  But it seems that your Satellite does not support Realtek audio chip but the Conexant audio chip.
  Therefore, the solution could not be useful for you.

  However, I think that you need to update the audio driver. I recommend you google for driver Conexant SmartAudio HD and test the latest version of the driver available.
  On the internet, I find the Conexant SmartAudio HD driver version 8.65.9.51 for Win 7 / 8 Win / Win 8.1
  Not quite sure if this is the latest version, but you can test it.

  To manually update your driver:

  1. go into the Device Manager (right click on my computer, choose manage and then find Device Manager in the left panel)
  2. right click on the device you want to update and choose Update driver software
  3. choose Select the location of the new driver manually and navigate to the folder where you downloaded the driver

• 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!
