Windows not start successfully after updating BIOS on Satellite P100-240

Hi all
After you install a new version of BIOS my laptop wouldn't start windows xp properly.
It just freezes in a screen black, I was able to go in safe mode, but then I reinstalled windows and now it's the same problem and I can't go in safe mode as I haven´t went through all the procedures of installation of windows.
Please help me: I can reset the BIOS to my old?

I use a satellite P100 - 240 (PSPA3E) and any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Hello

What version of BIOS you have loaded? Version 4.20?

Normally it shouldn´t do problems, especially after upgrading your BIOS. May I ask if the version of Windows installed on your machine you´d is on the media recovery or from scratch (from scratch means install with a genuine Windows CD and install the downloaded drivers)?

If everything fails then send you the machine and let check the laptop on certain shortcomings of the BIOS.

  • Satellite A210-199 does not start successfully after the BIOS update

    Hello

    I've got Sat A210-199.
    Yesterday I updated the BIOS, and after that problems occurred:

    While restarting my computer does not start. When I enter the BIOS after a while, it shuts down.
    I guess all this because the temperature of the CPU:

    When I do nothing it is 77 C. I don't think it's normal: (.)
    Computer is very recent, so it's probably not dust inside. And it's so hot from the start, but after the new BIOS, something bad happens.

    Why this temp is so high?
    There is no any process background or something.
    Is this normal?
    And what about this new BIOS?

    To be honest, something like this should not happen. I really don't understand why this is happening. I have updated the BIOS on friends A200 and mine P200 and everything works fine. Here on this forum we can only speculate on this issue, but what you need exactly's professional opinion.

    This probably not help but install recovery image and check with the factory settings. Make sure you also on the lower side cooling fan is not blocked and the laptop can be cooled properly. If the problem persists, you should contact the nearest authorized maintainer and clarify this issue.

    Sorry, but I don't really know what you can do in this situation. I don't see any other way to solve this problem.

    Good luck!

  • Laptop HP Pavilion 2320DX g4: computer hp laptop pavilion g4 does not start successfully after update and return to windows 8.1

    Hi, I have recently updated my laptop to Windows 10. He had so many problems and I didn't like it at all, so I just returned my laptop to Windows 8.1.  Since then, my laptop does not correctly every time, and the fan immediately starts to work as well. I can start my pc and connect to my home screen each time.  If the tile is moving or light up when I move my cursor, then I know that I can use my laptop for a little while. It can freeze after getting out a good program. Other times when I start my laptop, everything is dead except for logging on my screen. My Windows key on the keyboard does not work most of the time.  If the screen does not respond the first time I turn, as described above, I can't absolutely nothing on my pc. I can't access the search bar by moving the cursor to top right, I can't open the tiles, I can't spend in desktop mode, etc.  Front I upgraded to Windows 10 and downgraded to 8.1 all worked perfectly, because I've updated from 8.0 to 8.1 Windows almost 2 years.  I have a defective battery. in fact I can only use my laptop if it is plugged. My fan is constantly going, but I don't know if it's my loss of battery or what's wrong with my pc now.  I have described my problem in the Microsoft community forum but have had little response that was not helpful. I was told to go to the command prompt and put in DISM: scan now (which also contained letters more than that, but I do not remember all). I followed the instructions and for 2 days, my pc seems to do better. Then he returned to this problem again. I hope you can help me.  If you have additional questions, post here or please email me at [removed personal information]. Thank you!

    @DWESTDEWITT,

    Hello and thanks for the display on the HP support forum.  What you can do at this point that there are several updates released by microsoft and hardware vendors is running the Windows Update Troubleshooter.

    If this fails to solve the problem.  The only option will be to restore the operating system to the previous, until HP gets the drivers so that they can release them on the support page for your laptop for Windows 10.

    Thanks again for posting and have a great day.

  • 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!

  • Need for a disk to boot flash BIOS for Satellite P100-240

    I need to Flash my Satellite P100-240 on a bootable CD.
    The BIOS only I can find on this site must be run from windows.
    I have seen BIOS 4.40 for P100 on another Toshiba sites, for example:

    http://askiris.Toshiba.com/ToshibaSupportSite/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=2115 524xml & sliceId = & dialogid = 56504155 & stateId = 0% 200% 56506013 20

    But do not know if it is appropriate for P100-240.
    They seem to be named completely differently. Not sure if that's a thing based country.

    The BIOS in the mentioned link will be allowed to run on my p100-240?

    Your laptop is NOT American series but the European series and you must use the BIOS from the European driver Toshiba page!
    The incorrect BIOS may damage the BIOS ROM of portable module! And this would lead to the point where you wouldn t be able to boot the machine!
    This is why you should ALWAYS use the BIOS designed for this series of laptop!

    In addition, you won't find updates of the traditional BIOS on Toshiba page!
    There are only updates to the BIOS windows-based and you can update ONLY run under windows.

    If the notebook WHAT BIOS s cannot be updated to the Windows operating system, then you must contact the Toshiba technician and must ask for help!

    That's all you can do

    Hello

    Yes, you can downgrade (rollback) If you made a backup.

    Can enter you the Bios and check if the compatible mode (after updating the Bios, it might put AHCI default)?

    Go to your retail store, they should have the disk recovery for you or you need to go to your manufacturer directly because the manufacturer is best qualified to support the software that the manufacturer has installed on the hardware, provide your serial number and order the CD on their part. I bet they arrange an expedition to the France and tax treatment for it, but should not be too much.

    Note: The manufacturer was required to provide a way to reinstall Windows. If it is not a set of disks with the computer, there will be a hidden restore partition (do not be confused with the system restore), you would use to return the computer to the State of the OOBE (Out of Box Experience).

  • Does not start successfully after the installation of updates.

    My sister has installed about 16 updates to windows on his computer. For some unknown reason after these updates, the police on the websites was different (a bit pixelated). She could not know how to solve this problem otherwise that restore to before the update. Then she started to install updates in the sections. She installed upgrading Cumulative security for Internet Explorer 8. He said she needed to reboot to complete the update, so she hit the button to restart. It began to restart and but just sat there for about 8 minutes approximately. She hit the power button to turn it off and then turned back on. The windows icon appeared and the fully charged status bar but then he just sat there on a white screen. We turned off and on again and it has always the same thing. I tried hitting F12 and it did nothing. I hit F2 and it went to the options but I have no idea what I should do, if anything.

    So, can you help me? What should I do now?

    EDIT: I tried a few times to press F8 to boot into safe mode, and it does nothing. I also hit F12 and it brought me to a start menu. I hit "diagnoses" and it did nothing.

  • Windows 7 Enterprise does not start successfully after re - install

    I have just reinstalled Windows 7 Enterprise 32-bit with SP1 on my laptop HP 6715 b. (I use 32 bits for any software that I develop is always compatible 32-bit.)

    After you have re-installed however, it does not start correctly. What came with windows announce "Starting Windows", but the following animation never - start the four lights that turn and turn into the "Flying Windows Icon.  It then crashes right there - do nothing, no matter how long wait.

    If I can put the machine power off and re - start, we are at the "Windows Recovery screen" - because it has not started correctly the last time.  From there, I can choose to make a recovery and return to the last Point of good restoration, i.e. on a freshly installed system before the update of Windows, of course.

    If I select "Start Windows normally", it starts however. But it is not 'Normal '. For example I can't finish my "Windows Easy Transfer".  It says that it cannot connect to my domain name - even if I am connected to my area and have been using it to install other software.

    Or I can do a Windows Update "normally". The last time I tried, it is gone for hours without finding what be - so I left it overnight. In the morning he had apparently found nothing yet.  However when I turned off the machine and then turn it again - he told me there are 211 updates installed.  WHO has literally all day.

    I'm not happy to come back to the last good Restore Point.  I did once.  He has NOT fixed the problem.

    I also tried:

    • Using MSCONFIG to disable all the startup and Services, apart from Microsoft and Kaspersky - no improvement.
    • Do a CHKDSK - revealed nothing.
    • Start in Safe Mode, did change his behavior.  This time I do not have the Herald "Starting Windows".  But turn the machine works again once, return me the 'Windows Recovery screen '.

    Ideas anyone? I'm at my wits end.

    It's OK guys.  I have it sussed.

    He was objecting to the fact that I had my USB with my "Windows Easy Transfer" files on it, plugged during the initialization of the system.

    Also, I was wrong in my thinking on how "Windows Error Recovery".  I assumed that he would do all that it checks before proposing to do a system restore.  It is not, it suggests a restore of the system first.  If you say NO to that, then he makes his audit.

    What is finally here, is that I finally chose an option before he went into the system recovery.  Then, I waited until he was asked to do a system restore.  I said NO, so he went in it checks.  He went through his analysis and finally concluded it was some "system unspecified device" recently added.

    Well I haven't nothing added to my machine for years.  So, I was puzzled.  Then I thought ' well, I don't normally have my key USB is plugged. "  I wonder... ».  I therefore disconnected the USB drive and rebooted the machine.  The rest they say is history.

    Hope this sorry tale helps someone else.  It just cost me four days!

  • Satellute C660D-14 X does not start successfully after upgrading RAM

    I have a Toshiba Satellite C660D - 14 X and I brought the new machine RAM
    + Komputerbay 8 GB (2 x 4 GB) DDR3 SODIMM (204 PIN) 1333 Mhz PC3-10600 8 GB portable memory +.

    The RAM is recognized in the BIOS, but when I try to start windows I get a white line in the upper left corner of the screen.

    Any ideas how to fix?

    Notepad starts successfully by using the old modules?
    If Yes, then your problem are the new inserted memory modules.
    Eventually, they are not fully compatible or defective.

    I upgraded my laptop with the modules of RAM 8 GB some time ago and I used Kingston modules.
    They are more expensive but Kingston provide good quality modules and they work great.

    Less expensive modules can cause this kind of problem!

  • Satellite M30-107 does not start successfully after using recovery disk

    Hello

    I recently got my hands on a toshiba Satellite M30-107 laptop second hand and decided to freshen it.
    I used the toshiba recovery disk, but after that the laptop is no longer support windows.

    When turned on it shows booting Toshiba disc for about a second then goes to a screen blank and freezes.
    When turned on, once again, a screen will appear an error by stopping and offer the opportunity to start in SafeMode etc but choose one of the options causes the machine to freeze.

    Any help or advice would be much appreciated.

    Thank you
    JT

    Hello

    Sounds a little like the laptop does not start because of the problem of Windows software
    You did not recover the M30 with the original Toshiba that was provided with this device M30 recovery CD?

    I may be wrong, but to me it looks like a recovery CD incorrect has been used and an image with drivers not compatible m has been installed

    You can try to install the OS of Microsoft Win XP original CD and could check if it would be possible to get the notebook ruin using own BONE.

    In this case we (you and me ;)) might know if this problem could be related to hardware or software.

  • After update BIOS my Satellite A200-h-13 is slower

    My laptop's slower since I updated the BIOS? I bought this phone 1.5 months ago and now it takes 7 minutes to get started! Internet Explorer takes 50 seconds to start...

    I installed an update that is not compatible with my laptop? What should I do?

    I updated the BIOS on Satellite A200 (PSAE0) to version 5.20 and there is no change at all. Maybe you should back up all your important data and make the clean OS install.

    I know it sounds stupid, but you have to understand that no one here do know your own settings of operating system and what can be the reason for the slow start.

  • HARD drive click after update Bios on Satellite A100

    Hello.
    I just did a bios update for my Satellite A100 PSAA9, and after that I started to hear a few clicks on the hard drive, from time to time. They appear very often, but I would like to know why they started!

    The bios update was published in 26/11/2007.
    Does anyone have the same problem?

    Thank you.

    I put t think it has something to do with the BIOS update.
    I put t don't know how old you HDD is but maybe that click concern only the HARD drive hardware problem

    There are several times in my HARD disk created similar clique and sounds but it s runs great
    I didn't noticed any hardware problem however, we cannot exclude a hardware problem and therefore, you should back up important data to prevent the files from damage.

    Best regards
