Updating BIOS for old Satellite M100

Hey owners of toshiba,.

I have the SATELLITE M100-178
Toshiba offers me version BIOS 3.0 for WINDOWS 7 32 bit.
where is the problem with DRIVERS, I can't install them, I get errors in the installation.

Question:
WINDOWS 7 need XP BIOS 3 version or it takes VISTA BIOS 5.6 version?

Sincere friendships)

Hello

I n t have this model laptop but I installed Win7 on other older models without errors.
Can you tell us what mistakes have you noticed, and what drivers are troublemakers?

  • Question about updating BIOS for my Satellite M40

    So, my laptop does not start, but works recovery procedure. Support suggested me to update my Bios.
    OK, given that the last time, it was easy.

    I downloaded the newsest version vor my Satellite M40 (PSM40) (1, 70 - WIN<= i="" have="" an="" ati="" grafics="" card)="" and="" extracted="" the="" bios-20070709161345.zip="">
    But there was a surprise:
    Instead of getting the old data structure, as written in the FAQ update Bios
    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"

    I get a file only: BIOS of Windows Knockhill10GV170.exe
    Extraction of it I get 8 files:
    -fdbase.img
    -InsydeFlash.exe
    -iscflash.dll
    -iscflash.vxd
    -KPM170. ROM
    -Platform.ini
    -The c:\windows\system32\unicows.dll

    Now my question: How can I create this bootable CD-ROM to update my Bios?

    Just to know: download all the other things are done on my desktop from my laptop is not starting ;)
    I also tried to run the exe in the hope that it will create a floppy disk or a CD-ROM, but it is written "basic cfg address not found."

    Hello

    Update the BIOS there are two ways to do this:
    -Traditional mode (TRAD) and in this case, you need floppy
    -Windows (WIN) and this update can be done under operating system running.

    Update BIOS WIN will work if you run Windows on your laptop satellite. If I understand your assignment well you are trying to do traditional BIOS updated, but using the BIOS to WIN update. On the Toshiba download page, there are two listed BIOS updates and two of them as versions of WIN. This means that you can update the BIOS under operating system only.

    Back to your problem: in the history one thing confuses me when you write: my laptop does not start, but works recovery procedure. Sorry, but if the recovery procedure is working and you will have clean installed OS.

    Be a little more concrete in our laptop does not start. What happen exactly when you press the power button / stop?

  • 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.

  • Question about updating BIOS for Satellite 2450-101

    Hi, I want to update BIOS for my Satellite 2450-101 (model: PS245E-01TMY-IT). I downloaded the BIOS "bios - 20071008123347.zip" on Toshiba Europe site (see link below). Is this the right one for my PC?
    What do you propose to make a backup of the existing before installing the new?

    I want to make an extension of memory, but I'm not sure whether this is necessary. Do you reccoment to update the bios anyway?

    Thank you very much!

    BIOS

    Hello!

    Yes, it's the good BIOS because it s also for your model (Satellite 2450-101).

    A BIOS update is an upgrade of RAM is not necessary. The BIOS has nothing to do with the maximum RAM capacity.
    Satellite 2450-101 supports up to 1 GB, type PC2100 DDR - RAM.

    Good bye

  • Re: Satellite L505 - 13 X - update BIOS for Linux

    Hello

    I see that there is an update of the BIOS for my Satellite L505-13 X. However, it is a .exe and he would go on the wine? Is it necessary to update? I have a serious overheating problem. #

    An update would I read on some forums?

    Hi pieredel,

    Probably this update will run on wine, but all BIOS updates are tested only on Windows because Toshiba doesn't support Linux. In my opinion it s too risky to do on wine and, therefore, you must install Windows.

    In general the BIOS updates are unnecessary if everything is ok, because this update is a bit risky. So, don t do this update just for fun.

    Do you have the same problems of overheating in Windows? If not it s a question of bases Linux and the BIOS will not help you

  • Updating BIOS for Satellite M70-165 with Windows7

    Hello!

    I recently got properly installed Windows 7 on my M70-165 with all the drivers!
    I ve installed a SSD hard drive too and now the phone works really well.

    But now I would update as bios version. I ve searched on this site and I find the updated 5.30 - WINNER, but it seems that it is only valid for Windows Vista...

    My questio is:
    Can I install this version on my laptop?

    I want to be very secure before installing this because I don't want to mess up now...

    Can someone help me?

    Thank you

    First of all thank you for your report on installing Win7 on this old Satellite notebook. I had it a long time ago and I was very happy with it using Windows XP Home edition.
    Up to now, on this forum, no one has mentioned on the M70 and Win7 so there is not much info on this subject.
    Fact is that this old piece of hardware is not supported for Win7 and if you have installed and configured successfully don't change anything. Leave it as it is.

    Update the BIOS is not important and does not help improve your laptop as it is. You change any BIOS.

  • Updating BIOS for Satellite A200-1j3

    Hello are we'll have a bios update for windows 7 in this notebook?

    Good question, but I don't know which should give you the answer to this?
    It is just user forum.

    In any case, if the A200 will build for Windows 7, I can imagine that Toshiba will supply the BIOS update. The same was for old WXP specifications supported for Vista.
