• Update the BIOS via broken WinPlash SATEGO P100-10U. Now just black screen.

  Hello

  I did an upgrade of the Bios via WinPlash as I installed the XBox Live. Upgrading the Bios did not work (stupid me) and therefore, I'll have just a black screen after that I have turn on the monitor. The machine emits no beep, nor does it show anything else.
  I have subsequently:
  Downloaded the WinPlash on another PC. As it says in the doc (unziped in a folder), but the file '... ". for bootable CD"is not generated (nothing else that the files have been copied).
  Subsequently I have burned (all files = part of Vista 32 Bit) with NERO on a bootable CD, but it does not start the program (CD starts spinning, LED in CD / DVD flashes yellow then it stops).
  Then, I only copied their executables on a USB key, tired to load it from there - ZERO nothing but the sound of the screens black and fan.

  Tried to access the Bios with combinations of power sur-bouton ' "+ ESC, F1, F2, F10, F12, Del, ALT (as the left of the SPACE key), CTRL.

  Could someone tell me if there is a start-up tool or a BIOS image tha starts, or a special touch?

  Hello

  so, you have little chance really bad because this issue needs to be repaired by a qualified technician. I had a similar problem and have searched for a few weeks for a resolution quick and good cheap but I couldn t find anywhere these tools mentioned you´ve.

  Your only chance to bring the machine back to life is to contact a [ASP (certified partner) | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/generic_content.jsp?service=EU&ID=ASP_SUPPORT]
  and allow them to correct this problem. I asked a lot of people here, but no one from toshiba is here to give some nice tools... :(

  Hope that your machine will come back to life.

• PROTECTED P4000 - update the BIOS without a floppy drive

  Hello

  I have a P4000 protégé who, I believe, was initially purchased without floppy drive. Now that I'm the Win XP operating system upgrade I need to install more memory, and like many other forum members point out it will not work without a BIOS update.

  However the BIOS available on the site is for the installation of Tranditional only and requires a floppy drive (which I did not). Is it possible to obtain a version that runs under Windows, or find another way to start the traditional installation? The site seems to suggest that the installation of Windows is favored, but the software is not provided.

  Thank you.

  Hello Sir

  As much as I know upgrade memory is not dependent on the latest version of the BIOS, and if you use compatible module there are not any problem. Anyway, I'm not 100% sure but I think you can do the BIOS update using the SD card.

  If you have the time and opportunities please try it and let us know if it works.

  By the way: all the updates to the BIOS are on the Toshiba download page and there are no other versions.

  Good bye

• DCC - cannot update the BIOS via command line settings

  I'm script an automated installation of Bitlocker on Windows 7 and 8.1 systems (company).  I use the last DCC and programs CCTK that came with it.  Systems have the latest BIOS updates, and are fully patched.

  I managed with several test systems (Win7, desktop computers, laptop computers (different models)).  I tried my scripts this morning on a laptop computer Win8.1 (Dell E6330) and as soon as my script runs to the addition of the password of the BIOS needed to make TPM changes ("cctk - setuppwd =" "") I get the following error:

  The required BIOS interfaces is not found on this system.

  I get the same error when running any other command CCTK used in my script:
  CCTK - tpm =-valsetuppwd =
  Activate CCTK - tpmactivation = - valsetuppwd =

  When I restart in the BIOS, no password has been set (all parameters are say no 'set') and the secure platform module is inactive.

  I updated to the latest BIOS (A14) and I get the above error message.  I know that orders CCTK I have scripted are correct, because they work on other systems.

  I wonder what could be the problem with this notebook and how I can come up with a solution.

  Thoughts?  Suggestions?

  Thank you!

  -Greg

  Just a quick update to let everyone know how I solved this:

  I had to install HAPI.

  On all other facilities that I have tested, just have the HAPI subfolder in the folder where CCTK. EXE was hosted was sufficient for work.  But for some reason some, in this case, once I installed HAPI and then ran my scripts again, they finished without a problem.

  I hope this helps someone else.  Seemed to be a solution simply absurd, but it is what it is.

• Update the BIOS on a booted TS140 UEFI

  My TS140 boots Win7x64 UEFI mode. It's fast and quiet and beautiful. It is due for a BIOS update, although its present 99 for later, A8A.

  Instructions to update the BIOS via BACK to call for the creation of a BACK with Rufus bootable USB flash drive. The flash player is likely to be a legacy MBR bootable.

  Is there a risk of harm a system UEFI boot from and update the BIOS with a disk MBR-started? I have to undo, redo, or whatever it is reset after perform the update?

  Hello

  You should be able to update via the BACK without any problem and should not affect your BIOS settings.

• New W510, update the BIOS - black screen on startup - guaranteed?

  Hi all!

  I got a new W510 and decided to update the BIOS via the executable Windows 7 provided by Lenovo for their support-web. The program is run properly (all green checkmarks), the machine has been restarted and then stopped and started again - but she never stopped showing the "ThinkPad" screen POST. The machine started throwing his fans after some time and the machine felt hot enough it is up to the right. I waited a bit (say 4-5 minutes) if there was some additional BIOS update which took place, but nothing happened after a while, I decided to stop it. Now when I boot, the screen is all black.

  This will cover in the included warranty? It must be, right?

  Sorry for my late reply. As I think it is clear from my earlier post, there was still no way to load default BIOS that the screen went black as soon as I started the machine.

  Two days later from my first message I sent it in for repair. Almost 4 weeks after and TWO motheboards (first one was apparently DOA) later, the machine works now. As it seems, Lenovo had some problems for spare parts quickly enough because it took almost 2-3 weeks just to get the first map of mother (DOA).

  Anyway, even if it took some time, I can now enjoy my new machine

• ProBook G3 450: I've updated the bios on my g3 Probook 450 and now potrs usb do not work

  I've updated the bios and after restarting the pc no usb port work and the usb serial bus is not listed in Device Manager. I have not received any error.

  Hi Richrob,

  Usually after the BIOS updates I recommend restoring the default BIOS because some parameters may change or managed power States must be refreshed. If you start at the F10 menu there will be a restoration of the default BIOS on the home page.

  If the USB bus does not return to the top after restoring default values, try to reinstall the USB driver. You can find the latest version for Windows 7 here.

• Qosmio G30 PQG31E - no driver XP 32? Cannot update the BIOS?

  As usual, obtained a computer laptop, but no recovery CD :(

  Got 32 installed XP (my Microsoft contract does not MCE) but a lot of missing drivers. Driver Toshiba page has all the drivers for XP MCE, XP 32 has only BIOS update, Bluetooth, HD - DVD firmwares, the virtual sound and drivers WI - FI!

  So I tought "Vista on this issue", but I checked the compatibility XP with Vista DVD I got a 'need to update the BIOS' (always a 1.40-2006/03/10)!
  My problem is that BIOS update always returns "this computer is not supported! Laptop has only one account, this isn't permissions problem, perhaps because many drivers are not present? Can I update the BIOS in safe mode?

  What now? Am stuck with a brick of Qosmio? Without controllers LAN to say the least, I can't not fact! Drivers XP MCE does work on XP 32?

  Any thoughts?

  Hello

  I found all the Win XP drivers for Qosmio G30 PQG31E!
  On the European driver Toshiba page, you can find the Win XP MCE drivers
  XP MCE drivers are the same drivers for Win XP Home or Pro.

  There are also some BIOS 3, 90-WIN and this BIOS is operating system independent. In other words, it works with Win XP and Vista...

  To update the BIOS the common Module must be installed
  You can find also on the European driver Toshiba page!

• Satellite 1000-Z2: driver Intel GPU does not - I should update the BIOS?

  Hello

  I just downloaded and installed the latest driver for satellite 1000 Z2 graphics card which is Intel(r) 82830M chipset Driver revision: 6.14.10.3889. However, it does not work.

  I wonder if I should update my BIOS first. Thank you

  Hello

  It s always a good idea to update the BIOS. Thus, it would be the best you try the BIOS updated and then reinstall the graphics card driver. You can also (if it isn't already) check www.intel.com and download the drivers from there, they are sometimes more up-to-date than the drivers of toshiba. :)

  Please give some comments if the installation of the graphics card took place after the BIOS update.

  See you soon

• Compaq Presario CQ71-320SA: failure of the update of the BIOS via Support Assistant / should I update anyway?

  This morning I found that my laptop had not finished closing 8 hours ago. I stopped by pressing the button Off for 6 seconds and restarted. I then looked a likely cause and saw that a BIOS problem was probably the cause.

  I'm went to the site of HP support & with information about http://support.hp.com/gb-en/document/c00007682, I followed step 1 and I saw that my BIOS is F.11 21/08/2009.

  Support site told me that I need F.11Rev1/20/10/2014. I installed, rebooted and saw that he had failed.

  What's worse, is that the program Insyde update it says that the 2009 version is updated - see below.

  A kind person could tell me what I should then?

  Hello

  You can manually update the BIOS for your laptop by downloading from the link below:

  The current version available is F.23

  http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp51501-52000/sp51527.exe

  Once the download is complete, double-click the downloaded file and follow the instructions on the screen.

  You will notice may-continuous display blank for a few seconds, which is quite normal. Once the update is actually the device automatically restarts.

  Note to back up your data before performing the update. Also have your adapter connected to the laptop.

  You cannot update the BIOS under Linux and using a victory based version of the BIOS.
  You will need to use the image of preinstalled Toshiba.

• HP Pavilion ze4936ea: update the BIOS.

  I have a HP Pavilion ze4936ea (PN624EA #ABU) is all about 2005.
  The BIOS revision was F.15 and I downloaded sp31140.exe to e.16.
  I don't have what I had when I upgraded to e.16.

  I tried to update the BIOS because it indicates by error that there is a floppy drive or a USB Flash drive at startup. But it is not a Floppy drive in the ze4936ea and I had a program on USB I tried to start from! The program BIOS F.15 erred. As well as the program e.16 BIOS, which also indicates a floppy drive, but no USB Flash drive in the laptop.

  What's not here?
  Can I get a BIOS program that allows me to boot from a USB Flash drive?

  The system BIOS has not the ability to boot through USB devices. I suggest that you create a bootable CD with the utility you have on the USB flash drive.  Here is a link that allows you to create a startup disk:

• 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

• Tecra 8000, update the bios

  I do not have a disk station and I can't update bios 9.10 at 9: 30 a.m. - trad. I made a boot cd with the update of the bios, initiated from this cd and started the .exe. The program starts and asks you the .bin file and I typed it correctly. The update seems to be made and it recharges cell phones, but the bios is always 9.10. There is no error message that comes up on the screen. I need to update the bios, because I have to install another hard drive.

  The problem is resolved.
  First of all, I updated from version 9.10 at 9.20 with a bootable cd and I've updated to version 9.30 with another bootcd.

  HOWTO:

  1. create a bootable cd with the files that are in the version of the bios zip 9.20 file. Put the cd in the drive and start the laptop (make sure the laptop starts on the cd). Type CHGBIOSA at the command prompt, when the program asks you the file, type BIOFC1AT.COM.

  2. create a bootable cd with the files that are in the version of the bios 9.30 zip file. Put the cd in the drive and start the laptop. Type CHGBIOSA at the command prompt, when the program asks you the file, type BIOFC1AT.COM (do not EC04F150 type. WELL, it did not work here).

• Split 13 x 2 can't update the bios

  I have a new split of HP 13 X 2 computer laptop / tablet. I have upgraded to Windows 8.1. Tried to update the system BIOS but it fails. I have Kaspersky Anti-virus turn off when you run the update and my account is Administrator status. Evry time I try and update the bios, I get an error "failure" and said copy update has failed. What should I do to fix this?

  Just flashed manually with a USB key. Appears the utility tries to copy the update to the bios on hp/efi/bios on partition 2, but I can't find how to go from Windows, even with hidden folders to display. The update tool the wish was easier and you can specify where you put the update from version 'dumbed down too low to be useful.

  Steps to Flash manually:

  1 use the bios tool to copy the files to a recovery USB drive. It will create a Hewlett-Packard folder. In BIOS and the BIOS update, but the update f19 falls within the bios/current.

  2. with your PSU AC plugged, reboot the computer. Once the screen goes black, start hitting ESC.

  3. even if it seems you can arrow down and press ENTER to select F2, press the F2 key... without the function key.

  4. Insert the USB key, select the firmware, bios update, select the usb drive and navigate to the folder of the bios/current.

  5. you will be asked if you want to update the current bios of 16 to 19. Click bios update (forget what it actually says) and sit down and let it do its thing.

  6. restart. If you have enabled as I do of bitlocker, now you must pick up the keys. After that is done, then you have a F19 X 2.

  Have not used enough to see if 19 solves this problem of the touchpad, but refuse to do workaround above.
