• Satellite L40 - 14Y Bios Update with HARD drive empty

  I need to update the Bios of my Satellite L40 - 14Y / PSL48E-01F01UGR of Version 1.60 to 5.50 (for Windows XP). The HARD drive is _ * authorized/empty * _.

  My problem: the 'solution' as given

  [Http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/faq.jsp?z=234&service=EU&from=faq_selection&CFID=B IOS & FID = TRO0000000b07]

  is unreasonable/erraneous. The instructions provided in this site for the "traditional update: BIOS is updated using a floppy ' lead 'procedure 7" for a Satellite L40.

  7 procedure is however simply: copy the 5 files, such as listed in the respective "bios - 20080617131457.zip" zip file on the disk ("+ extracted the zip file containing the upgrade of the BIOS to a formatted floppy + '). This disk is - of course - _ * bootable * _ and its usage with the error message "NTLDR" not found as shall be provided.

  We know a solution to this problen other than the installation of an operating system for the current object of updating the Bios from an operating system?

  Additional note: the attempt to install the 5.50 Bios by running winflash.exe (which is the single executable in "bios - 20080617131457.zip") failed because it "does not in DOS mode. But he could start with a few other disk started micro operating system, such as, for example, Caldera back. We know something about that? The statement: "run the *.exe extracted to the temporary folder. .... . A BIOS update diskette will be generated"as given for other than blackness L40 laptops means that a * _bootable_ disk is"generated ". Other laptops with the same Bios 5.50 as the L40?

  Hi jetztkommich,

  Don t do so complicated: anything that can be downloaded from the Toshiba site, you will find. If there is that only a basic Windows Update the BIOS, you can run the update of the BIOS under Windows. I think that s easy to understand.

  As Al - Ex worte, you can try the update on a Windows disc packed with bart PE.

• Updated the BIOS via bootable USB drive

  I want to update the BIOS by using the ISO image provided. I want to write this image a usb, then on startup, the bios update. How to create bootable USB drive.

  My system is E430, although the question is pretty generic.

  Hi again, ahaider7

  I don't think that a program would be necessary. However, after doing more research, I'm not sure the work process. In addition, update the BIOS via USB is not supported, because as far as I know. If you want to update the BIOS of your machine, I highly recommend using the utility to update the BIOS. You can also burn the .iso to a CD and the image file.

  Kind regards

  I am no newbie: with these laptops, this is the first and only 2 has no BIOS updates, more than 100 + modernization successful in my career!

  Here, I sketch the history with the my two Satellite Pro L40 - 15A (PSL4BE).

  Cell phone 1:
  a. BIOS 1.60
  b. upgrading to Windows * XP * to 5.50 _For Windows XP_
  c. programme stop the PC from the start, with a progress remains empty bar!
  d. first boot in the BIOS showing version 5.50 (!), but then: dead (black screen)
  e. taken for an ASP.
  f. after 15 minutes and for as little as 35 it has been resolved, and BIOS updated to 2.00
  g. explanation of the ASP guy was it was my fault, because since the laptop is with Vista installed, I couldn't do a upgrade the BIOS of XP!
  h. sold the laptop with BIOS 2.00

  Laptop 2:
  a. BIOS 1.60
  b. upgrade of Windows * Vista * to 2,00 _For Windows Vista_
  c. programme stop the PC from the start, with a progress remains empty bar!
  d. but the laptop still and always boots with BIOS 1.60.

  h. read 'notuagain' contribution to the forum thread [here | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=47887&tstart=0], and it worked.
  i. but now, the laptop still has BIOS 1.60

  Any ideas out there?

  Hello

  Here you can find the traditional versions of updated BIOS for this laptop model:

• ZV5000 - want to get the BIOS update but do not have Windows

  Hello

  just got my trusty zv5000 AMD out of the closet and intend to play with Linux on it.  At the moment there no bone because the HD has not, although I noticed that the BIOS is a former F.21 and would get to you last F.35.    Unfortunately, it seems that I can only do the update of the BIOS if I am running Windows.

  Wondering if there is a bootable ISO or floppy image available that I can use to do the update.  I prefer not to have to locate a copy of Windows, install on a new HD just to update the BIOS.

  Thanks for any help on this

  Thank you, I finally understood how to do the BIOS update without installing Windows:

  • Copy the executable update BIOS for USB
  • Connect a portable flash drive
  • Power laptop and Windows 7 install cd boot
  • go into the Windows Recovery Tools command prompt
  • change directory to the USB player
  • Run the executable file
  • Utility to update the BIOS works well
  Thanks again for your response.

• T400 became a brick after bios update

  Update ThinkVantage told me that I had a bios update to do, last night, I started & went to bed. Full battery, plugged in, etc.

  This morning, I went down to my home office and attempted to 'wake up' the laptop, it was totally insensitive. Since he was about 8 1/2 hours to do the upgrade, I unplugged and jumped the battery to reset. When I went to restart, I got 3 beeps (1 long and 2 short).

  BRICK!

  Warranty expired last October (could not extend), now Lenovo tells me that I have to pay for the repair, could be up to $500 for a problem caused by the update of Lenovo.

  I read a post where you can put the CD bootable on a USB key & reflash the bios image, but maybe the USB is not bootable because I understand not anywhere with this method.

  Someone at - it ideas? I did the thing the cmos battery, but who did nothing else but a chance to blow the dust off the DIMMs.

  Any constructive help appreciated. Thank you

  I was contacted by Lenovo, and they're going to do a repair for my device.

• Satellite X 200-20 s - LAN does not work after BIOS update

  Hi all

  I've updated the BIOS version 2.7 and NIC LAN just disappeared from my list of device. The wireless network card works fine however. When I plug the ethernet cable, the green light turns orange not, so I guess that it is not broken, as it worked fine before the BIOS update.

  I tried different drivers lan Windows XP and still nothing. Any ideas please?

  I have Windows 7 x 64 installed.

  LAN option is listed in the BIOS boot menu?

  If you have tested with Win7 and WXP maybe you should do finally test and install recovery image original Toshiba that you got with your laptop and see what happen when you use the laptop with the factory settings.

  Your described method does not apply to Toshiba laptops.
  Each computer laptop manufacturers supports various BIOS update procedures

  Toshiba on this page we:

  Here you can download the latest version of the BIOS for Tecra 8100

  The 4810.25 package must be unpacked everything first.

• Satellite S500-10F - slowed down and need BIOS update

  Hello, I would like to know if anyone can help.

  I work for a Borough Council IT Department, so it is quite safe to say that I know a fair bit on THIS and the side material things. We had an about 12 laptops Toshiba Satellite S500 delivered, 11 x S500 - 11 c and 1 x S500-10F. As we do not yet support windows 7 so he must rebuild in Windows XP, install the drivers etc, and send them to schools.

  All S500 - 11 c were built and work without any problem at all. The only difference I see is that the model 10F doesn't have bluetooth so that the model 11 c. Model 10F take image ghost, created from the 11 c, but he likes to be restart every 5 minutes approximately and is extremely slow.

  So I rebuilt the model 10F using our licenses CD XP SP3 Microsoft and started to install drivers etc. When I installed the software of card reader Ricoh the laptop again slowed down (about 5 minutes to start Windows). I used to have a similar problem with a model on the A300 range and I've updated the BIOS which cured the problem. I downloaded the one and only BIOS update on the Toshiba site for the S500 and when I want intsaller, he returned with a message that says "this computer is is not supported.

  If someone at Toshiba can tell me where I can get an update of the BIOS that works for my S500-10F or indeed why my system slowed down to a snails pace after having installed the Ricoh card reader software I would be very grateful. I removed the software and now and disabled without success card reader devices.

  Thank you very much

  I can see for this Satellite Pro model 2 drivers are available. The second is O2Micro controller version 1.1.4.207 card reader.

• Satellite Pro P200-15W: after Bios Update 1.90 incredibly noisy fan

  Hi, I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro P200-15W, I recently made an update to BIOS version 1.9 and seems to have been a big mistake.
  After restarting the computer, I had a lot of software deconfig and the fan has become incredibly noisy.

  I have the problem with the Toshiba Vista registration software, I get this message: "registration of Vista has stopped working". I read other discussions, I don't want to just disable it in the start.ini file, I would actually solve the problem if there is a way.

  Is there a way to change the configuration of fans? I read a post from Toshiba on another model of laptop that has had the same problem of noisy fans after an update of the BIOS, they gave that a solution with a new version of the BIOS, is there a way to reverse the BIOS to the previous version? (recovery CD will be useful for this purpose)?

  See you soon

  Edgard

  Hello

  It seems that the picture of the fan was changed and renewed in the new version of BIOS, and so fans run fall.
  Why the table fan has been changed?

  Well, usually something like this is necessary to improve the reduction of the internal temperature while the CPU and GPU are running with maximum performance.
  This helps to prevent the equipment from damage!

  Usually, the recovery CD formats the whole HARD drive (partitions too) and installs only the image of Toshiba on the notebooks of HARD drive.
  The image contains the OS, drivers and additional software and has nothing to do with the BIOS update.
  But you can try to recover the laptop to see if you can solve the problems of software as "Vista record"!

  If you want to reverse the BIOS, you will need to contact the ASP in your country!

  Sorry, but all I can suggest.

  Best regards

• Equium M40x-189 and BIOS update

  There are updates of bios for my laptop, and so I thought I would try a flash update. I can only find the Trad version and not the flash version of Win.
  the problem is that the traditional flash update file asks you to create a bootable cd for the update procedure. Software CD, Toshiba in their wisdom have provided a cutting of the version of "save now". Guess what this special version of toshiba cannot create a bootable cd you have to spend £25 for the full version.
  Someone knows, there is a version of the flash upgrade Win

  Hello Andy

  As far as I know just BIOS updates listed on the download from Toshiba site are available. I guess that your unit is a relatively new. If you have any problems with this device do not do any BIOS update. Only if there is a problem the update of the BIOS by using external devices or something like that is recommended.

  Good bye

• Re: Tecra M9 bios update without windows

  I have a Tecra M9 runs only [Opensolaris 2009.06 | http://opensolaris.org/os/downloads/] on this subject.
  Is it possible to do a Bios Update (acutally I have 1.50)

  Is there an ISO image or back - tools so I can create my own ISO image...

  Thank you
  GerryH

  Hello

  I doubt you'd be able to update the BIOS on the Opensolaris OS.

  The Toshiba page provides only focused on the victory of the BIOS, which means that you need to install windows to update the BIOS.

  The traditional BIOS version allowing you to update the BIOS by using the USB disk is not available for download.

  I think that only FSA (authorized service providers) availability to perform a BIOS update using the diskette.

• Satellite A660 - 18 BIOS update & fails (re-visited) HARD drive recovery

  Referring to an old thread from my friends...

  I tried earlier to update the BIOS of v1.80 for v1.90 (whether by the automatic update tool Service Station and the direct download of the update of the BIOS).

  Whenever the update of the BIOS ran, he abandoned arguing that the battery was low (it was not), alternating current was not on (it is) and the existing BIOS version was superior to the new version (it wasn't).

  The real problem seems to be that the version of the BIOS (as shown in "Toshiba HWSetup") is:

  + The BIOS version = V234567890. 00/00/00000000000 +.
  + Version EC = 1.80 +.

  However, in the Diagnostic PC Toshiba tool the BIOS version on the page of basic information is correctly reported as 1.80

  At the point where I couldn't be worth blat my disc with the original image and try again. I was hoping that Toshiba would set the BIOS update to fix the problem. Didn't happen.

  They released v2.00 BIOS in June 2011 and would not always up to date. So I backed up my data and tried to blat of the machine to factory State. What a nightmare...

  The recovery image doesn't work well at all!

  The first bit works (the original partition creation and image copy), but after the startup of Windows and the script factory Toshiba intervenes, all sorts of problems begin.

  First of all, the thing stuck several times in a process of "assessment of system performance. This happens in several phases of reboots because the drivers are installed. Then there's a bunch of bug script error messages and DMI analyze the errors you will need to click on ' close and do not report the crash "type dialog. What makes it more difficult is that the Toshiba factory configuration script sets up a blank page trying to see you on what the bureau is to be avoided. Even if you try to pass in the Manager of tasks to complete the process deadlocked, it gives you a few seconds grace before forcing the Office to lock and hide behind the white screen again. If you're quick and good time, you can stop the evaluation of performance at a standstill (I think it's just the thing to the Windows Experience score). Same thing to reject the other boxes of error...

  Finally, I arrived at the end of the script and the machine was built with all of the original software.

  The program HWSetup still reports the version of BIOS of nonsense and the PC Diagnostic tool always reports it correctly.

  The Service Station program now does not even start. It crashes with a message + "request the Toshiba Service Station could not initialize. Try to restart or reinstall the application. » +. I downloaded the last being on the website and installed... To be hosted later with the same message.

  Program update direct BIOS for v2.00 made his usual thing you ask that the current BIOS version is greater than 200 and abandonment.

  I even read in a FAQ that some recovery routines do not work correctly with more than 4 GB of RAM (I have 8 GB). So I did all of this once again with only 4 GB installed and the script was just as broken for 4 GB 8 GB.

  I ran PC complete diagnosis for machine test suite and it turned up nothing.

  A little confused now... Maybe time to log a failure while I have a few more months of warranty left. But the machine actually works, just can't update the BIOS. Would be my luck if a problem arose just after the warranty has expired, and they said 'just update the BIOS...

  In front of me, I 3 laptop years. Over the past three years, Toshiba has offered 3 BIOS updates. I don t care about it and still use the original version that I got with my laptop. I want to say, why change anything and start this risky If update everything works fine and it does.

  Several times I have read here that people write about the problems of updating the BIOS and damaged BIOS. This risk does not apply to me just having the latest version.

  Anyway, if you want to have all past orders on your laptop, it is without a doubt your legitimate right. In General, the BIOS updates are tested before Toshiba offers for download so I really put t understand why you have this kind of problems. The problem with the installation of recovery is also strange.

  A few months ago, a friend of mine bought A660 and I helped him create recovery DVDs, and we also tested the recovery procedure everything including the three options:
  Back to out-of-box state
  Recover without changing the hard drive partitions
  Get a custom size partition

  Everything worked perfectly so I m really confused about everything you write.

  Unfortunately, I can't help you with this. When I could have your laptop in front of me to see exactly what is happening, it will be much easier to understand all of this.
  I updated the BIOS on different laptops, and I got lucky because every time that everything was fine.

  Your laptop is guaranteed valid so I recommend you contact Toshiba service provider in your country and ask for assistance.
  What do you think about this?
