Equium A200-15i - need original BIOS

I would be very very grateful if you could send me a link to the original bios for the EQUIUM A200-15i.
Thanks in advance, Michael

Hi
On the Toshiba European driver page you will find always newest BIOS versions.
Older BIOS versions are not downloadable and I think you will have to contact the ASP in your county to get such older BIOS.

Need original BIOS for Satellite C850-B237

I was updating Toshiba Satellite C850-B237 insydeh20 bios, but after restarting laptop its bricked.
Now I need Original bios (not updates) to boot from USB might work. To whom should I contact for oraiginal bios?

I can imagine that Toshiba service provider in your country can help you with this. They must have access to Toshiba database and also access to all previous BIOS versions.

Equium A200-15i: I cannot use the touch pad - no response

I cannot use the touch pad in my equium A200-15i.
When I touch the pad, there is no response at all.
Please help me to solve it.
I have tried to uninstalled the program and reinstalled it, but problem still exists.

Hi
Did you check if the touchpad is enabled correctly???
Using the key combination FN+F9 you can disable and enable the touchpad functionality!
Please check this function if you have not disabled the touchpad accidentally!
Last but not least I would recommend checking the touchpad settings in the control panel mouse -> Advanced -> Advanced feature settings.
There you will find different options which can be configured to use all the available touchpad features.
Best regards

Errors/Glitches with my brand new Equium A200 15I (incl video hardware)

Hi,
I just treated myself to a new laptop last Saturday and have thus only had it for about 3 and a half days so far but I noticed a few small things that I weren't sure were errors/faults or if they were just because its new, such as the fact that sometimes I type things with the keyboard and some of the letters don't appear on screen, which I think is probably more to do with me not typing or pressing heavily enough on the keys rather than anything else, its not happening so much now...the touch pad gets a bit sticky too and it thinks I want to scroll up and down when I want to move the cursor not scroll sometimes but I manage to get it to work, I think most laptops have glitches like this and presumably I could help fix it by calibrating the touch pad(?) I haven't had time to look into that yet though... there are a few other things though and most worryingly just this morning I got a video hardware error message, so now im a fair bit worried/suspicious that there may be a real fault with it and would like to know if this is the case, whether its something I can possibly fix (im no real expert especially with hardware but I can always try downloading and installing updates/fixes and that sort of thing if it'd fix problems).
The main thing which is worrying me most, is that this morning a message suddenly came up on screen, warning me that there had been a video hardware error, yesterday evening, which I clicked on a button I think to load more info. and I took this screen cap of it:-
http://img528.imageshack.us/img528/724/errorscreencapcw1.jpg
I thought it may help to show the actual full message rather than just trying and pasting the info., well ok to be honest I didn't notice it let you copy it to clipboard but oh well (oops lol).
I know there's a topic about a similar error but I didn't want to butt in on that discussion as I presume that should be for that persons error to be discussed, mine may be slightly different I don't know... I followed the instructions given in that discussion and checked the device manager and no hardware faults are showing up there, btw it says in the device manager, under display adapters, that its a Mobile Intel 945GM Express Chipset Family, im sure all the A200 15I laptops have the same card but I thought I'd just clarify that. Incase that wasn't the right thing to check I also checked under 'sound, video and game controllers' (as the error said it was a video hardware error) where it lists the only one as being 'Realtek High Definition Audio' and I checked the properties there, on both under properties it says that the device is working properly, with no signs of any faults...
The thing is, I had read online somewhere that there is some issue with the graphics or video cards. I'd read that they can be glitchy and sometimes break down after the one year. I'd also asked my dad about this and we checked that it was an Intel graphics card that came with this laptop, which it is, and we reckoned that Intel chips should be as reliable as any other brand really... so I didn't think that there should be a problem, though if there is I have until next September to get it fixed before the warranty expires!
What surprises or kind of worries me though, is that the error message was only presented to me this morning. It dates the error as having occured at 19:53pm... I was using it last night and infact I went to have a shower and I put the laptop screen down before I went to shower at around 7:35pm, I presumed that its ok to just close the lid and it would automatically go into hibernate mode or something similar(?) im wondering if that had something to do with it, as I 7:53pm would have been roughly when I came back and lifted the lid/screen up again to use the laptop again... I can only presume, given the time it quotes, thats what caused the fault?
It does give me the option to 'update driver software' and 'scan for hardware change' within the device manager, should I run both or either of those perhaps? is this a common glitch? should I be worried at all etc...
Any help is much appreciated, if more info. is needed then let me know and ill clarify what I can. Also in terms of whats installed, I have quite a few programs, for graphics I have an old version of Paint Shop Pro which I installed yesterday morning, it seemed to install fine, thats Paint Shop Pro 7 from Jasc, I also have some converter programs (for vid files, 3GP and stuff), AVG Virus scan, Spybot Search & Destory, DBPowerAmp, FTP Commander, Quicktime and Real Player, fairly basic stuff like that, nothing much else just my old pics and vid files I transferred from my old XP laptop to this one, in my documents... I don't have any high powered or complicated games or anything else like that installed. Also at the time the video hardware error message states, all that was running when I had the lid down (or before I put the lid down) would have been Windows Live Messenger (though im pretty sure I signed out before putting the lid down) and an IE window, im pretty sure thats all, I wasn't working on anything else just checking the 'net...
There are some other things I've noticed too that I thought perhaps I should mention(?), one thing I've noticed it doing is the screen going blank and then coming back very quickly, alot. I've already asked about this a day or so ago as by then I realised that it was only doing that before loading the 'Windows needs your permission to continue' window/message, which apparently its supposed to do and is something to do with the computer switching from displaying the normal desktop to the secure desktop, which I sort of understand lol.
So I believe that isn't anything to worry about but I have noticed over the lastday or so, that the screen seems to do this more, going blank then coming back again, even when that permission message doesn't show up.
For instance this morning when I first put it on and went to check my home page, I clicked on a link at the bottom of the page or wherever to load another page within the website and the screen went blank for a moment before coming back a second later with the requested page. Is this normal too? or a Vista related glitch, or is there a possibility there may be a glitch with the monitor? im guessing it may be more of a Vista thing but I thought I'd ask here just incase, I decided not to pay for any extra insurance/extended warranty as I'm very careful with my items and take good care of them and so I'm being careful to try and spot any faults early on while they may be fixable under the basic warranty and what-not...
Another thing I've noticed is that to start with, when I pressed and held the 'FN' button, a range of black and white icons appeared on screen which told me which F button(s) to use to make certain adjustments, it still does that when I try it now but at other times, it doesn't show the icons, no matter how long I hold the 'FN' button down. That doesn't really matter since I can tell from the symbols on the keys on the keyboard which buttons to press but its just inconsistent, is there a reason why sometimes the row of icons on screen will show up when I press and hold the 'FN' button and other times it won't show at all?
Also sometimes if I move the cursor right to the top of the screen, those icons load as they seem to always be located at the very top of the screen but sometimes this is a problem, if im trying to click on something else and one of those icons comes up instead... im sure you can switch this option off somehow but should I be worried that the icons don't always show when I press and hold the right button(?) just trying to be cautious!
I think this post is long enough and I can't think what else I could possibly add to help, so I'll leave this here. I don't mean to seem too paranoid but thought it best to mention this stuff incase anyone recognises these glitches/errors and can recommend a quick way to fix any problems before they may develop into anything worse... many thanks in advance for any help with any of these issues!!
(mods let me know if im wrong to include so many things in one topic, I kind of did this quickly and I apologise if im breaking any rules I don't mean to, if possible please break this into a few different topics or I can do this, though ill be at work frm 2-9pm today so might not be back and able to check here until Thursday morning (October 4th))

Hi Isla
Your message is really, very, very long. I think its too long to read it twice ;)
. Regarding all your issues on this notebook well. it looks like you have installed many 3rd party programs and applications. In such case its not easy to say if such issues are software or hardware related. But I presume its software.
I checked your screenshot pic but I have never seen such error message. But it looks like something wrong with the graphic card driver. The message says something about Live Kernel Event
A kernel's services are requested by other parts of the operating system like graphic card driver for example.
In such case I would recommend updating the graphic driver. According to you message its a Intel GPU. So you could check the Intel page for the compatible graphic chip driver.
Regarding the FN key issue;
The Toshiba FlashCard utility controls the FN key functionality. I have read in this forum that this application does not run smoothly and in some cases it causes some issues. The new update should solve the problems. You should check the Toshiba driver page. The FlashCard Utility is a part of the Toshiba Value added package.
So finally one more hint:
You should always check for the Vista updates on the Microsoft page. This OS is not perfected and Microsoft releases very often patches and fixes
Hope it could helps a little bit.
If necessary just ask for more info :)

Need Original BIOS for 5900Ultra

I have an MSI NBOX nVidia GeForce FX5900 Ultra. I messed up the BIOS, and need a copy of the Original cuz i accidentally deleted the backup I made. The ony 5900U BIOS files I have found online or some Starforce version. I know that's not what I had before. Anybody know where I can get a copy of the original BIOS for my VGA card? Thanks in advance for any help you can give. Later!

Hey, thanks for the BIOS file. It flashed fine, but now I realized you have a different card then me. Here is a picture of my card:
http://www.gamers-depot.com/hardware/video_cards/msi/5900u/shot1.htm
I don't think thats what you have cuz the BIOS still refers to the card as a Starforce, whatever the hell that is. Either way, thx for your help. Hopefully someone else can do the same if they have my same card. So, if anyone has this video card (MSI NBOX FX5900U 256MB), plz send me a copy of ur BIOS. Thx in advance, later!

Need original BIOS for G530A

Hello,
I tried to connect my laptop to a tv for the first time but unfortunately there is a problem with the laptop's HDMI output.
I purchased Lenovo G530A about 2 years ago. I updated its BIOS via a setup I downloaded through Lenovo web site. But recently I found out that my laptop is G530A instead of G530 which is the only model on driver list on Lenovo web site. And the big difference between two is that G530 doesn't have an HDMI output while G530A does and through reading a few forum posts it looks like the BIOS is the problem.
I searched everywhere but I cannot find the original BIOS for model G530A. What can I do?

you're saying you flashed g530's bios instead of g530a?
if you succeed to flash it, i can say they are same models.
you can check g530 download page.

Lenovo M58 (7360-AEG) - need original BIOS bin file

Hello everybody!
I think I have a BIOS problem with Thinkcentre M58.
I try bios recovery procedure with .iso file, jumper, etc, but nothing happens.
So I will try to programming bios chip with bios programmer. I found some bios files, but not the correct one.
If somebody can help me with original bios .rom or .bin file, I will be very grateful.
I save the present file and I see it's 4096KB, but files that I found are 2MB or less.
Thans in advance.
Happy weekend to all.

No worries, Liken, as I already wrote, I was trying to flash 65cn13ww, and it failed for some reason.
Being curious, I started the laptop again with F2 to check the current BIOS version, and what did I read: 65cn13ww!
Yep, the same BIOS that I was trying to flash.
I think Lenovo has a lot of explaining to do.
But then again, when I follow some threads, I don't think Lenovo gives a sh...., seeing that most forum visitors don't get ANY answer or are still waiting for one.
Shame on them and I'm very disappointed, particularly about Lenovo's attitude towards the loyal customers!

Re: Equium A200-15i: Wireless stops working, No wireless adpater visible

My A200-15i wireless netwrok stopped working by itself during downloading.
Internet is working via ethernet. Wireless physical switch is on but the indicator is not lighting up. No wireless adapter is showing up in the "Network Adapters" in system (only the Ethernet adapter is visible).
During Atheros driver installation, receive a message that the hardware is not plugged in.
Please help.

Sounds like the wireless card has died the light which comes on with the switch is hardwired and not software driven.
Even so it's very odd for the light to malfunction so there maybe a slim chance the card has somehow detached itself internally.
I'm not familiar with the A200 I know that some earlier Toshiba models allow you access to the wifi cards since they were optional.
For less hassle buy a USB dongle or cardbus but check online first some cheap brands suffer from range and poor performance.

Need Original BIOS Rom for Lenovo g565 (Mod.4385)

Messed my BIOS up, with a 560 BIOS (i know my own fault!) and need a original rom for recovery.
where to download?

the official download page doesn't have any bios update but i found one above. but, due to it's not official bios update, it may void the warraty and can brick the mainboard, use it on your own risk.

Fan on my Equium A200

Hi
I have just purchased an Equium A200-15i and wonderd if the fan should be going off as often as it is. Have just had to return my previous laptop to the shop as had the same problem with that one, in that the fan would go off every minute or so. Can anyone advise if this is normal as I have no idea!

Hi there,
could you please explain what you mean with "go off". Where is the problem, is your machine crashing due this or is the FAN running constantly or what?
A better description would be make the answering much more easier, because no one understands sometimes each other. Remember, we are all not coming from the same country, the range between the people here is sometimes about 10000 Miles and no one speaks the same english.. :)

[EDIT] I forgot to mention that when i boot with the FX 5600 the monitor doesnt retrieve a signal and it goes into power save mode. Is this good or bad? Will i still be able to flash it?
A bad thing. But the card is still flashable no matter what the condition of the BIOS within. For example, have a looksy here

BIOS problem on Equium A200

Hy ...
I have a problem with my Equium A200 laptop!
I tried to update my bios, I downloaded the update from the site and when I executed it, the computer stoped responding. I left it like that 30 min and ... still no response. I removed the battery and unplugged from power source and now it doesn't starts.
Please someone give me an advice how could I fix this problem.
I know I can reprogram the bios with an eeprom writer but I would like to know if there is something else I can do?
thanks ... mircea

Hi friend,
theres nothing you can do. I assume you have still some warranty left on your machine. Dont waste your time with re-programming an eeprom which is not really accessible with an normal eeprom writer (believe me, I know what I am talking about). Just click [HERE|http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_whitepaper.jsp?service=EU&WHITEPAPER_ID=0 000000871], contact the nearest available service partner in your country and let them fix that problem so you wont have any further problems with your machine.

Equium P200D - revert to the original BIOS?

Toshiba Tempo alerted me to the existence of an updated Bios for my notebook, but on installation the system froze and now it won't restart at all (blank screen) As part of the installation I was asked if I wanted to back up the existing Bios, which I did (under BIOS-BAK), but how can I now get into the system in order to access the back up and revert to the original Bios ?
All suggestions gratefully received !

Hi
I agree with the user above. The old BIOS can only be reinstalled if the update went well.
Now in your case you need professional help form an authorized service provider. The technicians have to reflash the ROM module.

BIOS is correct one, read >>Posting Guide<<
If the bios is correct, then why not work switches for overclocking??? With their switching to other modes (10%, 15% and 20%) than default motherboard does not start. How do you explain this? In BIOS firmware is working correctly.
