  My settings:

  Hi ML

  Stupid question maybe now but why do you want to update the BIOS on this, I think, fairly new laptop model?
  Have you noticed a few issues or hardware issues?

• Portege R700 - cannot update the BIOS

  Hello
  I recently bought a Portege R700 19 M and I downloaded the latest BIOS version available in the Toshiba support page and when I run the .exe file, it does not work with this message: "the computer is not supported.
  And when I look in the HWSetup Toshiba tool, it does not display the BIOS version but some weird characters (letters not usual) so I can't find out which version is installed.
  Thank you for your help

  Hey Buddy,

  You update the BIOS to the version preinstalled Windows from Toshiba?
  Are you logged on as administrator when you try the update?

  To be honest I doubt a problem to update the BIOS because I found other threads where users report that BIOS update was successful.

• Portege R600 - cannot update the BIOS using Win server 2008

  Hi all.

  Pls help...

  I tried to update my bios to the new version, but I can't.

  I just downloaded bios update of the toshiba site for portage r600 for my model number (bios update 1.80 - winner), I unzip the zip, run the exe, but error popup came:

  Package for the TOSHIBA BIOS ver.3.2.9
  Unsupported product type is installed.
  Package BIOS BIOS Version: Ver.1.80
  Current BIOS version: Ver.1.40

  So my question is what am I doing wrong? I'm trying to update my bios from windows.

  is my version of windows: windows server 2008 Enterprise Edition x 64 SP1 (don't ask why, I just have to run Server 2008)

  Thank you.

  Hello

  Your OS windows seems not to be the Windows which was preinstalled on your Portege
  You cannot update the BIOS by using the windows server 2008 Enterprise Edition x 64

  You will need to put the system which has been pre-installed by Toshiba

  Good bye

• Update the BIOS on a Portege 3490

  Hello

  I recently bought two used portege 3490CT portable, both with BIOS version 1.60. I tried to upgrade to Version 1.90 with a USB-floppy drive, but it does not accept floppies. Theres no disk access when I press a key after the bios update message.

  Also booting from that floppy USB does not work. Is this a problem related to this specific USB floppy drive (it's a NEC)? Is there any other procedure updating the BIOS?

  Thank you!
  Thomas

  Hello Thomas

  I don't know, but I guess that your device has no legacy USB support and, as far as I know, you can do it by using original Toshiba FDD. Check your BIOS settings please.

  I'm sure that you will not be able to do the BIOS update using your floppy drive.

  Good bye

• Portege 3500: missing system32 - update the BIOS?

  Hello world

  I got a Portege 3500 PIII-M 1.33 GHz, which has been infected by a virus. I tried to reinstall Windows Xp, but the SYSTEM32 file is missing or damaged.

  I downloaded the BIOS driver and tried to install it via an external CD drive, but it did not work.
  Could you please help me at all?
  I am very concerned about the situation

  Can't wait to hear from you

  Thank you

  Davide

  Hello

  I can t believe that the virus may damage the BIOS!
  I think that you have updated the BIOS with the wrong procedure.
  Have you checked the BIOS update document?

  In any case, the fault of system32 has nothing to do with the BIOS and I don t understand why you started the update of the BIOS.

  The Portege 3500 does not support an internal hard drive, and so if you want to install the operating system, you must use a compatible external PC card reader.
  I assume you are using this player to start.

  If some error messages appear during the installation, you must first format the whole HARD drive and delete all partitions and then try again to boot from the recovery CD!

• Portege R100: Try to update the BIOS of 1.20 to 1.60

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba R100 and try to update the BIOS of 1.20 to 1.60. However, I just get 'different ROM version' when I run the update.

  The model number on the bottom is P2010 - this is slightly different from a R100? If Yes, where can I get a BIOS update?

  Thank you

  Hello

  Well, I found the BIOS version 1.6 of 30.9.05 on the Toshiba driver page.
  This version should work properly.
  I guess you tried to upgrade the BIOS with the win version. Please consult this document:

  You will find information how to upgrade the BIOS on the R100. You must use the trad-BIOS version.

• Portege M400: Could not update the BIOS after installing Vista

  Hello

  I have improved my M400 for Vista.

  I am trying to install all drivers Vista of Tosh. According to the instructions, the first thing to do is to update the bios.

  So, I download the bios (v3.60) on the site and run the .exe, but he tells me that I need the common modules.

  The only common modules that I can find on the Tosh site are for XP.

  Can anyone help?

  Thank you

  Steve

  You will probably need to update the BIOS before installing Vista on the laptop.
  Then, you could install Vista again.

• Impossible to update the BIOS on my Satellite A660

  Hello, guys!
  When I try to update the BIOS on my laptop in version 2.3 (latest version 1.6) I get the message "install UEFI winflash 0.02:

  + The program will be closed! +
  + There is an error occurred, please check below Articles. +
  + The BIOS above 230 version. +
  + More than 20% of battery capacity. +
  + Is attached AC. +

  The conditions of the first and the last are rooms but the second is not because the battery is dead (always 0% charged). Is there another way to update the BIOS?
  Thank you!

  Post edited by: al_3

  No, there is no other update BIOS because victory BIOS update version is available on the Toshiba driver website.

  I guess you need good work and battery charge in order to update the BIOS.

  But why you want to update the BIOS? Is something wrong with the laptop?
  The update of the BIOS is a very serious update and must be done very carefully
  Incorrect procedure may damage the motherboard!

• Yet WT8 - after that updating the BIOS 1.6 screen is too bright

  After the update the BIOS to version 1.6, as even the lowest setting of the screen is bright when using the device in a dark environment (e.g. reading in bed). Before the update, I simply set the brightness slider Windows at the lowest level and everything was fine but now it is so brilliant that he hurt the eyes.

  Anyone else with this problem? Is there a solution?

  * Brightness * level is a function of * EC version * (on-board controller).

  There are variants _Two in units shipped: __

  THIS 1.10 + and +-bios 1.20
  THIS 1.20 + and +-bios 1.20

  _After bios upgrade: _

  THIS 1.20 + and +-bios 1.60

  EC 1.10 was 1.20 lower brightness level, 1.10 is so much better in the dark situation, * ask * Toshiba * Europe * to solve this problem.

• Satellite Pro A120: Need to update the BIOS after upgrade CPU

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A120 and I need to update the bios of a change in cpu cause.
  The laptop works very well, but for some reason any with the new processor fan runs always full.

  A lot, I searched but found nothing.
  The model number is PSAC1E-0QL04CG3 of ideas where I can find the bios?

  THX in advance,
  John

  Hello

  First of all: update BIOS doesn t help you.
  Why do you think that BIOS update should help reduce the activity of fan?

  I guess that your new processor is faster. Right?
  So it offers more performance and this leads to higher heat dissipation... so finally the CPU must be cooled and this can be done only if the cooling module would turn faster you agree with me?

  By the way: the update of the BIOS is on the page of the Toshiba UE driver. Since the satellite Pro A120 is very old series, you will need to search for drivers in area Archive (Type of product-> Archive)

• Updating the BIOS is dead the satellite Pro P300-1AY

  Hi all

  found this forum and really hoping that he can help me!
  I bought a satellite Pro P300-1AY two years ago, it cost me £900 nr so I thought it would be worthy of a purchase.

  A year ago the USBs stopped working, I do it every working solution I could think of anything will do, finally gave up and learned to live without USBs!

  However, a few weeks ago, the laptop at the start stop, I didn't get was the black screen. Probably a video problem I did all the memory check hard drive everything else, however, it was only an intermittent problem, I found if I he tilted on the side she would begin, another thing to live with!

  But two days ago, I heard that if I've updated the BIOS, it could solve all my problems. so I went to the Toshiba site, found the BIOS updated and downloaded, but to halfway through the installation, the laptop froze and I couldn't t he put it off and had to take the battery out to turn it off!

  And ve you may have guessed, he's now won t start. Even its worst, LED lights, and if I put a disc in the cd I can hear it whirring, but that s it.

  Is - this irreparable? I ve heard of priming of the cd with the original BIOS with a combination of keys or I'm hoping against hope?
  Ty for your time in reading :)

  Hello

  > Is it irretrievably? I ve heard of priming of the cd with the original BIOS with a combination of keys or I'm hoping against hope?

  Well, usually the BIOS could once again be reflashed, but you would need a traditional version of the BIOS update.
  This version is available for Toshiba FSA.

  So you will need to get in touch with a local ASP technician that could reflash the Rom BIOS module.
  Eventually, after this update the specifications would be stable.

  Good luck

• Update the BIOS - protected A600 problem

  I'm trying to update my BIOS settings on my laptop (that I was invited to do by the service of Toshiba hardware update).

  I followed all the instructions provided by the program because it extracted and ran the update. However, the computer began the reboot process, but has been 'disconnected' windows (Vista Business) for about an hour now. I don't know how to stop the process without causing serious damage to my BIOS, but this does not seem normal.

  Help, please!

  Hi wilreb...

  I think that the user henharas a bad experience with the BIOS updates.
  I updated the BIOS many times and never had any problems...

  I assume you mean on Tempro software... this software informs you about updates on the Toshiba page. It is not a recommendation for an update, but simply an alert that new updates has been published...

  If your laptop is running properly, then update the BIOS is not really necessary...
  You must follow these tips; never change a running system ;)

  In any case, after the update of the BIOS shouldn't take too long and if she has completed, you should see the new version in the BIOS settings...

• How do I update the BIOS on the Tecra R940?

  Are there instructions for BIOS update for my Tecra R940/Win7Pro/64 bit?
  Thank you

  On the BIOS Toshiba download page you can download the version of WIN. This means once downloaded BIOS, you must run it under Windows running as all other applications.
  By the way: is there a reason to update the BIOS? Have you noticed any problems with your machine?
