X130e addition of tag in the BIOS

I work for a VAR and we have sold Lenovo laptops for years and used tools of Lenovo at the entrance of the labels in the BIOS using the WinAIAPackage (as AIAWrite tool before) to put the numbers in.

X130e models we receive crash out two programs, and two software indicate not support X130e (software update April 2011). I found some posts on this forum discuss using the WinFlash and associated BIOS update tools to force inventory number down, but for other non-X130e models. The WinFlash with BIOS X130e update installation does not seem to respond to the same commands.

Someone at - he found a solution? I called Lenovo support and they me, after a few days, just wait to update tool sets. It will not work, I need a solution. I'll keep trying various tools of Flash in the hope of a solution already posted will work for me a little tweaking or whatnot. That or I'll brick one.

We treat thousands of Lenovo laptops, and if newer models are not compatible with the number of active own Lenovo software, this is a real problem. (And Yes, I tried to enter them manually. You can not...)

In case somebody stumbles on this post in the future as I did on messages earlier with the same objectives,

Lenovo has released version 1.02 of the "Windows utility for reading and writing Asset ID Information' and"Utilities for reading and writing Asset ID Information"to

It also supports:

- Added support for ThinkPad L430,L530,T430,T430i,T430s,T430si,T530,T530i,W530,
  X1,X1 Carbon,X121e,X130e,X230,X230i,X230 Tablet,X230i Tablet.
- Added support for ThinkPad Edge E120,E125,E320,E325,E425,E525,S430.

The Lenovo driver site indicates a release on 8/14, but reading tell me that they were released 7/11 files. I know for a fact that when I called Lenovo from mid-July to August, it wasn't published, nor known to the level of support I received.

Anyway, I didn't leave this issue pending in itself, in case anyone in the future would be in a similar quandry.

  • Satellite Z930 - after the update of the BIOS, additional RAM no longer works

    I bought my Z930 Satellite in August and installed 2 GB of additional RAM in it. Worked well, the Ultrabook detected and had total 6 GB of RAM.
    Yesterday, I stopped ignoring these messages from Toshiba Tempro and installed the BIOS update suggested that Bios 2.20 (not sure what version it was before). Now, I have several problems:

    * First *, my Ultrabook no longer starts with the extra RAM. I press the power button and then the power light flashes: yellow 2 times 1 times orange loop. The screen stays black and the CPU fan starts at the maximum level... Only when I remove the extra RAM, then it boots.

    * Second problem *, without my extra RAM, it starts, but sometimes with the fan from the CPU to the maximum level. I so restart it stops.

    * Third problem *, Windows doesn't detect only 2 GB of RAM. I have now no extra RAM mounted, it should detect the 4 GB of RAM, as when I bought it. Now, there are only 2 GB...

    So this is what happens when I install the proposed updates? -.-
    So, what can I do now? At least, I want my preinstalled 4 GB of RAm back. Is there a BIOS downgrade, or something similar to undo changes?

    Thanks for the final suggestions!

  • CF extra addition < html >, < head > and the < body > tags pages

    I had problems with my titles not appearing is not on my pages of CF. Finally, I looked at the source of the page in the browser and found that CF is the extra insertion < html >, < head > and < body > tags at the beginning of the pages. (see examples below). I'm sure it's the CF engine that did this because I took a cfm page and just change the extension of html and everything worked fine (except the CF code). There is no additional tag inserted and the titles appear. I also noticed that the CF engine seems to be adding the first line <! DOCTYPE HTML... >

    Does anyone know why this might be happening?

  • Can you change all the functionality of the tags to the way it was? Once I have mark a mail, I don't like it so appears as black text when I select the tagged email.

    The use of tags is the best way to know which emails I have completed action on. Now when I select an email, it appears in black instead of the selected color of the tag that I assigned. It's very confusing. I make sure that I don't have the selected e-mail to make sure that I have tagged it. This is not good. It takes additional measures and I find myself double checking of things all the time. It's a lot of time. I love Thunderbird, but this feature on the most recent update has to go. Please change back.

    something nonstandard here.

    The text of the selected item must be the opposite of not selected, so if the normal text is black, labeled selected item should be white.selected text see the image as an attachment.

  • Configuration of the BIOS XW8600 for SSD and HDD

    Until recently, my xw8600 has been configured with the emulation of SATA under storage on the separate IDE controller Options.  250 GB hard drives connected to the SATA 1 and SATA ports 0 and readers of DVD RW Drive connected to 2 SATA and SATA 3 ports.

    I wanted to install a GTX240 Neutron Corsair SSD, but discovered when I changed the SATA RAID + DCIS emulation (to activate all 5 ports of SATA controller and optimize the performance of the SSD), the system could not find the boot drive.  I checked the startup command settings and found the slot drive HARD listed title module of memory into the attached USB printer HP Officejet 7500 a first and could not be changed.

    I decided to go back to SATA IDE emulation separate, remove the optical drive on SATA 2 port and attach the SSD it.  This facility is expected to start successfully; but after installing windows 7 x 64 on the SSD (Windows XP, x 64, still on the HARD drive), I found Windows 7 has been very very slow.

    Can anyone offer any suggestions or comments on how I can improve this situation?

    Thanks for any help, you can suggest.

    What is an installation of Windows 7 Pro 64 - bit of a retail installation DVD purchase, or something HP?  If I remember well Vista 64 was the latest HP OS with sold.  In this case you won't have to deal with a set of HP restore disks.  I would never do an "upgrade" of a prior installation of OS in W7.  I only do not clean install W7 on a freshly long-type reformatted hard drive or an SSD.  I buy my "system builder" OEM license W7Pro 64 - bit DVD/COA from newegg.com (you can find that many sources and approximately 140.00 each).

    Plan to do a clean install on this SSD from scratch and when you format before that settle does long formatting version, while it is booted from the W7 DVD.  That will take some time.  Or, if you have a functioning before the OS install on a hard drive, you can restore the xw8600 you can connect the SSD in the second or third SATA port and reformat (long version) management of records like this.

    The boot drive or SSD, Spinner, must always be connected to the primary SATA port, which in these workstations, is usually blue plastic, while the rest are a dark black.

    Make sure that your BIOS is later... There was a version for this and the xw6600 with a few months ago.  It is an important.

    Put the SSD in your favorite mount, hang it in the main SATA port, prepare the W7 DVD in the DVD drive (which should be attached to the second port SATA or IDE cable if it's a DVD ATA drive). Throwing xw8600, go straight into the BIOS and go to which you can change the SATA emulation.  Change that on "RAID + AHCI.  Save on the way out of the BIOS, and the workstation will now reboot usually requiring formal approval of the change F1.

    Demarrer start on the DVD, select clean install and things will be fine.  I usually set my boot order to start hard drive/SSD first and second optical drive.  Then, when I load an OS I just use the F9 key during the early start to switch to the DVD player for this single event.

    It's the key information: If you have correctly set to "RAID + AHCI" SATA emulation for the W7 installation process, then the appropriate drivers will not be loaded from the DVD on the startup disk, and you won't receive anywhere near your expected speed.  I helped a friend who had done exactly what you did, and when we corrected things literally double SSD performance scores.  I recommend that the reformatting/clean reinstall from zero here, because you want to really perfect the basics and the way he was treated initially can leave you with a few important questions.

    After you have things working with the SSD and the DVD player you can add in your other material sequentially.  I would like to make a reboot between each addition, just be very careful.  Some old HP DVD drives have a problem with W764 loading during the emulation of the SATA BIOS is set correctly and there is a solution for this, but you don't want from now this info.

    All the advice I have written in this forum about the xw6400 installs apply to the xw6600 and xw8600, including information on the upgrades of the processor.

    Let us know how things are, so that others can enjoy...

  • Tecra M10 - update of the BIOS says "this computer is not supported.

    Recently refurbished a M10 - 10I to reinstall the operating system. WinXP install at all so I try to update the BIOS as it seems quite old (V1.5). Most recent version (and is available) for this machine seems to be V3.0. Download and try to run the file "P0065V300" and get the message:

    Package for the TOSHIBA BIOS ver.3.3.0
    This computer is not supported

    What can I do? Its supposed to be for this model!

    Also, prefer a version of boot drive, but hey, I can use a version of Windows, assuming that it runs on Win7.

    Hello

    Tecra M10 - 10I belongs to the series of PTMB1E and according to the page of the Toshiba UE driver, BIOS v3.00 - WIN is the latest BIOS version which is available for this model.

    The BIOS update requires a few additional tools Toshiba as VAP (additional package for Win 7)

    If this driver isn't installed, the update of the BIOS would not work.

  • HP Omen: update the BIOS

    HP support assistant shows that there is the following update:

    HP notebook System BIOS update
    Number SoftPaq SP74378
    version F.34Ap1

    should I worry?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Thanks for posting in the Forum from HP Support.

    No, no need to worry.

    Updated the BIOS/UEFI is not a critical task and I would say that you leave like this for now.

    General recommendation I provided to users/customers is NOT to upgrade the BIOS/UEFI, unless they live any sort of BIOS/UEFI problem specific. Just for updaing and update just for the use of the latest verson is not the solution. Any type of update (no matter what and that relesed it) can solve 2 problems but can introduce more than 10 questions. In addition, upgrading the BIOS (for any provider) are risky more because the BIOS recovery is not that easy compared to updates of typical software IF something goes wrong.

    Update/update IF you have any specific questions that you know have been fixed in the new version or for some serious security issues. Otherwise, keep the existing version as long as possible.

    See you soon!

    Hello

    Why you need to update the BIOS?
    I doubt that XP installation says that you need to update.

    Normally the update of the BIOS is a bit risky and must be that if she of really necessary. In addition the update of the BIOS can only be done from Windows. There is no DOS version, they available only authorized for service providers.

  • Satellite M40-276 - memory not detected in the Bios upgrade

    Hi people!

    New kid on the block!

    I have a client with a toshiba Satellite m40-276. I've updated his memory to give it a little more to play with...

    Went into the bios to see if everything was OK but no projected additional memory. I removed the new and old memory and put in the new 1 GB module and restart the computer.
    The bios has not yet changed the size of the old memory?

    Went to windows and of course that the memory has been detected it normally?
    I added the other memory module and went into the bios again, but no change it?

    Windows, however, recognized that the two modules?

    His computer is the same bios to factory and has never been updated.

    My questions are... why the bios doesn't recognize the upgrade memory? It will help in upgrading the bios?

    Enjoy all the suggestions I can get on this issue.

    Thank you

    bookie56

    Generally, if you upgrade RAM using tested compatible modules, that should be recognized correctly.
    We do not know what modules you use, and I guess that there is a compatibility issue.

    RAM on Satellite M40 276 can scale up to 2 GB of RAM and compatible modules are:
    DDR2 400/533 256 MB (PA3389U - 1 M 25)
    512 MB DDR2-400/533 (PA3412U - 1 M 51)
    1 GB OF DDR2 400/533 (PA3411U-1M1G)

    I'm ready to activate the feature Matrix Storage on my Satellite X 200 - 24 X. The problem is that I can't find any relevant option in the BIOS setup...
    Thank you!

    Hello

    Intel Storage Manager is a pilot and not an option in the BIOS. The only option you have in the BIOS is the mode of access to the HARD drive. There you can change between AHCI and Compatible.

    For AHCI mode which is faster, you need Intel Storage Manager driver. For the Compatible mode, you n t need additional drivers.

    Want to know how to install Storage Manager? Just use the forum search, you will find hundreds of results. ;)

    Why is he not possibel to download an old Version of the Bios?

    JSpindler

    Hi jspindler,

    The question is why you want to update the BIOS? This update should be carried out only if it of really necessary. In addition, only the most recent update of the BIOS can be downloaded as it fixes most problems.

    In any case, you need to start the BIOS as an administrator and you should decompress all files from zip archive before start you. Also, make sure that the value added package is installed.

    By the way: what operating system is installed?

    And what do you think on the point of buying a new battery?
    I mean in this case nothing you can do and another way to update the BIOS is not known to me.

    In addition, now you can t mobile work with this laptop because you don t have a battery, so I think that a battery would be a good buy.
    You can get one for example authorized service.
