BIOS upgrade does not work on Satellite C670-16E

Hello,
I tried to install a bios upgrade on a C670-16E but I receive the following message
?????????,???? Windows ?????????
How to solve this problem?
Thanx in advance
Hugo

Hi
What Windows system is preinstalled on your notebook?
Are you still using the preinstalled Toshiba image and all the Toshiba drivers?
How did you try to update the BIOS?
I downloaded the zipped package (bios-20120903153222.zip) and unzipped it.
Within the bios-20120903153222.zip folder I could find additional BIOS_V230_WIN.exe file.
This is also a zipped package even if it contains the exe extension.
Click right on this exe and choose unzip here.
Now you should get additional folder UBIOS containing different files.
Here you could execute the file WinFlash.exe to start the BIOS update

OpenGL does not work on Satellite L30-X10

Hi there
I have a Thoshiba Satellite L 30 - X10 running on Vista home basic. I have a ATI Radeon Xpress 200M Video card. I am able to play DVD's and some games that do not require open gl but when I try to play Wolfenstien or call of duty it get the message that It cannot open GL and I must update my drivers.
I have updated my drivers, It still does not work.
In the Ati Catylst program it says that I have the card stated above and it gives me the 3d versionof the card but says no version available on the video card even though the device manager says that it is working properly.HELP.
Can anyone please assist me as I am not familiar with Vista.
my computer also will create back up points but will not restore on any of my back up points could this be affecting the open gl for gaming as everything else works well.
Thanks to all who can help

Lan and WLan does not work on Satellite L40-18W

Hi all
I have TOSHIBA Satellite L40-18W and my problem 1- wireless not work & wired lan does not work.
I have download driver and every thing is ok but it does not work ( when i search by wireless i do not find any network. My router is working fine)
plzz help meeeee

Hi
Its hard to understand what you mean by not working.
What does this mean exactly?
Are you not able to connect to the internet or what?
Usually if the WLan card and the LAN card have been recognized properly in device manager then the drivers are working fine and the issue could be related to wrong router configuration or maybe to some enabled firewalls, etc
Firstly I recommend checking the router settings. Check if the router has been configured with the right data from ISP and if all other common options have been set correctly.
The notebook supports Realtek Wlan and LAN card.
Check if Wlan card uses the same WLan standard like the WLan router and if right encryption has been used too.

Lightroom 3.6 upgrade does not work

After upgrading from lightroom 3.3 on 3.6 lightroom does not work - The programm asks for an katalog

The link Tina talks of : http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Lightroom/3.0/Using/WSBED0E080-63AF-4ba4-ACCF-EC48C4F92D6D.htm l#WS67a9e0c3a11b14961f164d0512a822b7d75-8000

I have tried to download picture of what it says but it is just a blank screen which says adobe flash needs to be upgraded to 11.4? Well I am no techno whizz kid but it worked before the upgrade and iPads don't have Adobe I understand and that's why I downloaded the I swifter app. Any help please?

No, not the tabs "x", but for example, just now I tried to respond to your post by pressing the REPLY link on my ipad and it doesn't work. It also happens on EBAY when you click on tracking numbers and the pop-up window has a close button that will not work. Also on EBAY if you make an offer, a window comes up to review your offer and submit. the submit button does not work. If you hold on one of these link buttons you get a notice to open and the info says javascript. I think ios 8 has issues with JavaScript.

Satellite A100 bios update does not work correctly

Hi,
I have a Satellite A100-153 PSAA9E and using Vista OS.
How do I install the new bios?? I run the .exe and nothing happens it shows that it extracts some files and then a notepad text appears that says something like this.
' INVENEC Pre-Flash Script for SanAntonio10
' 09/26/2006 Version 1.0.0.3
On Error Resume Next
'=== Declare Variables & Objects
Dim WshObj, objArgs
Dim WMIObj, chipset
Dim InfoStr, WorkPath
Dim VideoType
Dim fso, oFile etc....
and then an error appears that says if the SanAntonion10 BIOS590MP.exe is installed correct.
pls help

Hm, sounds a little bit weird. I would suggest you to do the following:
go to the drivers download page
-> http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp
Download the latest common modules if available and RE-download the BIOS update.
Then try it again. If this doesnt help then perform a full system recovery, download the BIOS update and then it MUST work.

Recovery disc does not work for Satellite A100-197

I am working on a A100-197 that would not boot into ordinary Windows but was able to boot into Safe mode.
I used MSConfig to turn off everything at startup and all non-MS services. No good.
I used system restore. No good.
I scanned for viruses, rootkits etc. None found. No good.
I copied data to another hard drive using safe mode with networking and inserted the recovery DVD.
Went through unpacking and got message telling me to remove DVD - did this and system appeared to freeze.
Hit the exit button and it rebooted but Windows froze (the moving blobs stopped moving). Tried safe mode
but got a message saying that the system installation did not finish.
Tried the recovery again but this time I left the unpacking screen at 100% overnight to see if
it did anything. It didn't. Clicked exit and got the same as above.
Formatted HDD in partition magic and tried again. No good.
Created 5GB FAT32 partition and copied DVD files to FAT32 partition. Tried to run the unpacking program
from DOS. It refused to run in DOS mode.
I'm thinking of linking the hdd to another machine and running RecoUnpack.exe from a working PC to
unpack the image files onto the laptop HDD, but this is crazy - the recovery disc is supposed to recover the
system. What else can I try?

Thanks Dennis. I was starting to think similar things myself.
There was a program installed called Daemon Tools which uses
SCSI Pass Through Direct (SPTD) layer. My analysis suggested this was the rogue
program but I followed all the uninstall procedures and couldn't seem to solve the problem.
I don't suppose (and I've never had anything like this before) that it could have fouled up
something in the hardware layer? I tried resetting the BIOS to default settings. Maybe I should
flash the BIOS? Could it have altered any other ROM on the laptop? Is there other ROM on
the laptop?
I hate software that ruins computers! Why can't people just use their b***** machines for sensible
things?

CD/DVD drive Acoustic Silencer does not work on Satellite P100-194

Satellite P100-194 (Win XP MCE, Bios-Version 2.20)
Since there is excessive vibrating of the DVD-Multi-Drive with some of my DVDs and CDs, I would like to use the Acoustic Silencer, but theres no difference between Silent Mode and Normal Mode.
I have already tried to reinstall the Acoustic Silencer Tool, without success. Since this problem is starting to get really annoying, any help would be appreciated.
I wonder if the built-in DVD-multi-drive is that sensitive by default (sometimes the entire notebook starts vibrating combined with a very high noise level when reading a dvd) ?
Thanks in advance !

Hi WB,
I believe the Acoustic Silencer simply limits the rate at which information can be obtained from the CD/DVD with the intention of preventing the very high speed rotation that can sometimes occur when ripping CDS or DVDs to the hard drive. If you are simply watching DVDs (or listening to CDs for that matter) then the drive speed will not be particularly high since once the read buffer is full then there is no need to read any more data from the disc itself. If you watch the drive LED you will see that it only lights intermittently.
The drive speed will decrease during playback as the laser reads the information from the outside portion of the disc surface.
The presence of noise and vibration normally indicates that the disc is 'eccentric' or is not clamped centrally in the drive, and this can indicate a possible problem with the clamping mechanism itself. However, it is always worth checking that the centre hole in the disc itself has no burrs or pieces of materila that would throw it off-centre, and it is also worth checking if the disc label (assuming it is a stick-on paper type) is properly attached and has no buckles or air bubbles in it since this can also cause noise.
I have experience of a couple of CD-ROM game discs which cause a lot of noise and vibration in my notebook and on checkin I found that the centre hole was very slightly offset.
regards,

BIOS update does not install on Satellite P10

I tried and failed to update the BIOS in my Satellite P10 (PSP10E). I downloaded bios-20070807133603.zip as it is the update offered for this machine.
When I extract and run the SETUP.EXE file I get a warning message "rom wrong size". The other file extracted is al00200a.rom.
Can anyone help?

Found the answer here - [http://support.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB59014X0000R01.htm] - via Google.
Basic problem was that I was double clicking on the zip file instead of right click-extract all.

Recovery does not work in Satellite U405-S2854

Recovery error.
Well, if even the recover from toshiba can work, we are lost!!
Could somebody help me?
many thanks

Well, the last bad news: after this, the machine tried to restart and a message in a black screen : BOOTMGR is missing.
Nobody deserves it!! :-(

Hello
I dont know what is wrong there but in Recovery category you can find several threads where the people report about same issue. it is interesting that this is reported by US notebooks only.
I am from Europe and I dont know how recovery procedure works there but you can ask this on US forum under http://community.compuserve.com/n/pfx/forum.aspx?webtag=ws-laptop&redirCnt=1
I hope you will find answer there. If you find it please let us know what the problem can be.
In my opinion it can be either defective recovery image or some HDD malfunction.
Sorry buddy but such error message is not known to me and I cannot offer any precise answer.
Good luck!

Iphoto upgraded does not work

I purchased iphoto for MAC yesterday when I launch Iphoto it tells me that I have have to prepare using the upgrader. I have dowloaded the upgrader and installed it successfully but it has done nothing and I am still getting the same message about using the upgrader every time I click on iphoto. I was on the old version (7) of Iphoto and I am attempting to upgrade to the current version. Can anyone guide me through what I need to do?

I launched the Upgrader by going to the Utilities folder and Iphoto is now working. Thanks pallywoo.

Snow Leopard upgrade does not work

I'm trying to upgrade to Snow Leopard from Leopard 10.5.8 on my mac book pro.
I only have one volume on my hard drive, but the installation program claims that I cannot install to this volume because it is not a "start volume" (though 10.5.8 boots from this volume). The icon has an exclamation mark on a yellow triangle.
I've used the service program to check my hard drive and all seams well.
Any ideas?

I uninstalled PGP Desktop following a recommendation within another thread - that did the trick.

Application upgrade does not work

Ever since I upgraded to 2.0.2, I have had nothing but problems. The latest is that now, I can't download any applications, or application upgrades directly from my phone. It says that I need to connect to my computer in order for the upgrade to download. But even when I connect to Itunes Store on my computer, the message on my phone still says "Unable to download application. It will be available for download when you log in to the iTunes store on your computer." But I'm already connected and logged on
GRRR Is anyone else having this issue?

DO NOT UPDATE ON THE PHONE ITSELF! Never do this! You risk bricking your iPhone and seeing the Silver Apple Logo of Death due to incomplete downloads and/or crashing! This has happened to me on my old iPhone as well as thousands of others. Use iTunes and iTunes only to update Apps!
