Factory installed bios version

I have bought a new HP envy touchsmart 15-j020tx in pakistan imported from thailand. I have updated the bios version to F.64 but now i want to recover previously installed version of bios. I have no recovery disk, and i did not know about the version of previously installed actually before updatin i did not check it nor created any recovery disk.
Now how can i know about the factory installed bios version? or if possible how can i recover factory installed bios version?

Original Factory Installed BIOS Yoga 13

Does anyone have the original factory installed bios file for the yogas that were released back last oct. I would greatly apprecate a copy of the file. they are no where to be found on the lenovo site.

L675D-S7016 (PSK3JU) gets FreeDOS errors using CD method to install BIOS version 1.50

I downloaded sk3jv150.exe from Toshiba's support site and followed the instructions to create a bootable CD to flash the BIOS. In fact, I have created the boot CD several times using different programs on this laptop and even on two other PCs but have had no success.
Whenever I boot from the CD, FreeDOS starts and the following error messages appear:
-InitDiskWARNING: using suspect partition Pri:1 FS 01 with calculated values 1-0-1 instead of 0-1-1
WARNING: using suspect partition Pri:1 FS 01: with calculated values 255-0-63 instead of 1-0-63
C:HD1, Pri[1],CHS= 1-0-1, start= 0MB size=7M
This laptop came with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit and I purchased it new in the Fall of 2010.
Any ideas?

After you receive the error you should be at a C: prompt. Enter BIOS.BAT and hit enter. This should lauch the BIOS flash application.

Query BIOS Version Before Running Command or Installing Application?

I have a task sequence that queries the computer model and then runs a BIOS update if the model matches.
If the BIOS is already up to date, the BIOS update application doesn't update the BIOS and the deployment continues. Everything is OK, but then we get a yellow summery screen at the end saying the BIOS update task had an error code.
Is there a way to filter the BIOS update task so that it only runs when the model matches AND the BIOS version is below a certain value?

There's bound to be a lot of ways you could approach this - assuming you would use a TS step, with a WQL condition, like this example:
http://scriptimus.wordpress.com/2011/06/22/mdt-2010-using-wmi-queries-with-task-sequence-step-conditions/
In pseudocode; yours might be "if bios version<>theupdateversionIhaveinthispackage, then apply the biosupdate"
e.g.
select smbiosbiosversion from win32_bios where smbiosbiosversion <> "K01 v.2.05"
[if the condition returns NULL, the bios version is at this version, so no bios update needed]
[if the condition returns a value, the bios version is not at the packaged version, so apply the bios update]
[note: this very simple condition does not allow for *newer* bios version being found in the machine!]
I haven't tested this logic, you should do so.

Unable to boot Win 7 after cleaning factory installed Win 8.1_shuts down at preparing desktop

I had factory installed Win 8.1 on my HP P 206TX laptop but I wanted to install some software which does not support any OS above Win 7, so I wanted to remove this.
I did the following process:-
1. Created Win 8.1 recovery media(DVD) for future usage.
2. BIOS setting:-
a. Secure boot - Disabled
b. Legacy boot - Enabled
3. Cleaned hard disk through DISKPART
4. Converted GPT to MBR
5. Installed Win 7 Ultimate 64bit (DVD).......almost done till preparing desktop....
Then just during preparing desktop, system logged off, shut down and restarted....
But the restart does not boot windows at all.
It only shows "press ESC for startup menu" and then restarts again with the same process repeating again & again.
I have tried Repair through Win 7 DVD but it shows "this version of system recovery options is not compatible with the version of windows".
Please help as I am unable to find any solution anywhere on the internet.
I hope HP can help me...PLEASE

Hi
According to your machines support pages on HP website, Windows 7 drivers are not available for your machine this is more than likely the issue you are having . If you want to run software through Windows 8.1 that is not compatible for Windows 8.1 you can always run a Virtual box and install Windows 7 to Virtual box and run software via there..
Google search Virtual box --- download and install then install your ISO image of Windows 7 and go from there..

K9N Platinum bios version & cpu support

Hi!
I need some help to clear up some questions regarding my MB.
MB: K9N Platinum, Cpu-z states my bios version is 080014, but i cant see it in the bios list for my MB, so what version is it?
Im currently running with a Athlon X2 5200+ Windsor, and i have got my hands on an Athlon X2 6400+ Black Edition, as far as i can see my MB is supporting that cpu, but is my current bios up to date for the cpu?
I have downloaded the MSI usb bios flashtool and i have set it up, and it boots in dos, but when i run memtest the program just says in one line memtest and a flashing + nothing more happens (i have left the pc for about 3-4min but no change) i feel that im starting to push my luck, and i dont want to kill this MB since its my work and gaming rig.
System spec:
MB: K9N Platinum
CPU: Athlon 64 X2 5200+ (want to install Athlon 64 x2 6400+ BE ID: ADX6400IAA6CZ)
RAM: 6Gb DDR2, 2x1Gb, 2x2Gb
GPU: GIGABYTE GTX260 Super OC Edition
PSU: CORSAIR HX520W

Thx Svet.
And if im reading this right "Athlon X2 Windsor ADX6400IAA6CZ 6400+ 200 3.20 2M N/A F3 125 7250v18.zip".
http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=prodcpu2&prod_no=252&maincat_no=1&orderby=core_name%20ASC#menu
I need atleast Bios 1.8 to get my MB to work with the new cpu.
So now i just have to figure out why mem test wont run.

Memtest do have some bugs. You can do test with Orthos instead:
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=103598.msg760534#msg760534
To check is your system is stable or not.
Once done you can ignore Memtest when asking after booting from the USB key
Also leave 1 memory stick only temporary in the 1st DIMM close to CPU socket before BIOS flash.[put remaining sticks back when BIOS flash is done/finished].

Z77A-GD65 Buggy bios Version 10.10

Hello All
I recently got this motherboard and during a bios update through MSI tool M-Flash I faced similar problems as some users reported in other post: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=171694.0
I have made the registration on the forum to share a solution that worked out for me.
I received the board on Bios 10.0, and I installed a Core i7 2600k and 16Gb DDR3 2133Mhz on it. First I run it without any PCI-Ex VGA.
I installed Win 7 64bits Ultimate on a SSD samsung EVO 840 256GB drive without any other drive pluged to the board.
The result was awsome, loading Windows in 10 seconds.
Then i instaled my HD6950 VGA and pluged in all my HDD (2 x 2TB + 1TB +750 MB + 500 MB) and every thing worked like a charm.
Later I thought, I have a very old Bios version, perhaps there is improvements regarding satbility or performance and there was where I mess up.
I updated the Bios to 10.10 through MSI tool M-Flash, the tool finalized the update (there was a progressing bar on the screen) and reboots the system.
Guess what? The system didn't boot and was only showing the hash blinking on the up left corner of the screen.
I switch the Multibios switch to the second bios position and the system got alive again.
After some trys, I was able to boot from the USB drive from where I have installed the OS, and i notice some strange cenario, the Windows installer was able to "see" all the drives, but if I select any one to go on with the instalation, I got a message like "The Windows can not be installed on this drive because a driver is missing" I'm not sure if these were the exactly words but this was the sense of the message.
This was the way I didi it:
1- you need get a good bios file (you can boot with 2nd bios and save it to a file or you can download a diferente version in my case I got the file for 10.8 version). When you download the bios from MSI webpage you get 3 files (7750vAx.TXT, AFUD238S.EXE and E7751IMS.A80 in case of version 10.8)
2- You need to prepare a bootable USB drive with MS DOS or equivalente, for that I have used "rufus-1.4.12" software that you can download on Rufus webpage.
3- After you create the bootable USB drive with MS DOS, copy all the files you got from MSI webpage on the root directory. You can check on a diferente PC or with the other bios if every thing is ok and if the bootable USB is working properlly.
4- Select the BIOS you want to restore with Multibios switch (the phisical switch on the board). (As far as I understood, older boards allows you to boot with bios 1 and after boot you would be able to switch to bios 2 and flash it, on this borad that won't work you will flash the bios from you have booted).
5- Power on your system, entrer the bios and set options to default, save and power off the system. (this is very importante because you can flash a diferente bios with diferente options and if this options won't exists on the version you are instaling the system can hang up and mayby this could be the end for this bios - I'm guessing but is better not to try)
6- disconnect all your sata drives.
7 - Power on the system and boot from the USB drive with MS DOS
8 - Type the folowing comand "AFUD238S.EXE E7751IMS.A80 /S" and press Enter, the software will do a full flash to the bios. Don't power off the system during this procedure otherwise this bios is dead.
8 - After every thing have finished (you should see the promt on the screen C:>\), reboot your system and you should get a functional bios, justo ensure you test it first only with the OS drive and then plug the others.
Note: This board has a multibios function on the Bios that if it is turned on the system will copy the content of one bios chip to the other, BUT, as far as i understood the system wil do a comparison between both chips and will replace the older version with the new one, that in my case would be a problema because the most recente one is the faulty one.
I hope this can help any one who is facing this or similar problems.
Best Regards from Portugal.

Which is the latest BIOS version for Satellite L30-113 (PSL 33)?

Hi everyone,
Could someone please tell me which is the letest BIOS version for my laptop since I have never upgarde it?
Also how do I install it and how do I check what is my bios version now?
Thank you in advance

First of all the BIOS update is not necessary if your notebook functions correctly.
But back to your questions;
On the Toshiba European driver page you will find all available drivers and also the newest available BIOS. At this time it seems to be a 3.10-WIN version
How to find out the BIOS version?
This is very easy you have to access the BIOS and then you could see the BIOS version.
To access the BIOS you have to press the F2 button immediately after notebook was started.

Satellite L500 - Is BIOS version 1.9 compatible?

Heyas,
I've noticed that a new BIOS version (v 1.90) for Satellite L500 Notebooks. My model - PSLS3A-01301D does not appear in the list of L500 models on the MyToshiba website, and I am very wary of installing the update incase it turns my laptop into a very expensive paperweight. Could anyone give me an idea if this new BIOS update is safe for my model?
Thanks in advance,
Evan

heya,
Thanks for the reply; I have to admit I'm suprised you found my laptop model on the australian website. When I did a search with both google and of the aussie site myself returned no results; that is to say, google did (even returned this thread) but none on [http://www.mytoshiba.com.au].
As for the need for the bios update; well yes I admit that I probably don't need it at this moment. I can be a little obsessive about having latest drivers and (generally) updates for my machine, it always seems to make it run a little smoother, although that could be my own bias.
It is kinda frustrating not to find be able to find my model anywhere on toshiba's site, especially when you seem to have been able to find it so easily.
thanks,
Evan

Where are the older BIOS versions gone?

Hi
A few weeks back, I've upgraded the BIOS on my Pavilion G6 1001sq to the latest version (F66). I noticed that the laptop is running considearbly hotter since then and I want to revert to an older BIOS version. When I go to the updates page on the HP website and click on "older versions available" I can only see the F66 version on the page I'm directed to ( http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/previousVersions?softwareitem=ob-115746-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&os=4... ), although a long list with many versions was available till recently. Where are the older versions gone?

Unfortunately, I do not know where they have gone. HP is working on issues with the suport and driver servers at the moment.
Since your notebook does have the UEFI Diagnostics installed, you should be able to rollback to the previous version that was installed. Use the firmware management option to do that.

Qosmio X300-14Y- How can I find the old BIOS version 1.90?

Hi,
First of all; I am so sorry for my bad english knowledge..
Im from Turkey.
I use x300 14 y since one week. factory bios version for vista 32 bit 1.90. But I upgraded to 2.10.
How can I find old bios 1.90 setup file again. ? Please help.......

You are right. On Toshiba download page you will not be able to find older BIOS version.
When the new BIOS update is realised the old one will not be available for download.
If you need older version contact nearest authorized service provider.
They must have it. Be cool and talk with them. Maybe they can send it to you per mail.

NOT SHOWING FACTORY INSTALLED SOFTWARES IN " RECOVERY MANAGER "

I'VE TRIED TO REINSTALL SOME SOFTWARE PROGMS BY USING " RECOVERY MANAGER ".
BUT I DIDNT FIND ANY FACTORY INSTALLED SOFTWARE PROGRAMS.
PLZ ASSIST ME.
I WILL BE WAITING FOR UR KIND REPLY.
THANK U SO MUCH.

That is odd - that is, as long as the integrity of the Recovery Manager is intact, I would expect it to work.
For example,
If you have reinstalled the system using other than the Recovery Manager,
or if you have upgraded the Operating System,
or added / Removed data from the Recovery Partition,
OR if the Recovery Manager is corrupted in some way,
then
the Recovery Manager will either not work at all, or may at least show inconsistancies.
======================================================================================
You might try using a Restore Point to "go back in time" and see if the setting can recover.
Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 8)
HP PCs - Restoring Files that were Backed Up Using HP Recovery Manager (Windows 8)
You can go to your system's website for the current Drivers and Software that are available for your computer.
First, create a place to which you can return in case things do not work as you hope:
Create a restore point
Install Software and Drivers from HP Website
Go to the top of the HP forum page to Support and Drivers
If prompted, Enter your Country or Region and
Enter your Computer Model information,
Go to Software and Drivers...
Enter your Operating System in the Drop-down menu... Scroll down
Select desired Category Software – Solutions >> Driver - Keyboard, Mouse and Input Devices
NOTE: Download ONLY the relevant drivers and software for YOUR hardware - note that in the website you might find more than one kind of driver for more than one model of computer -- this is normal, but it does not mean YOUR computer uses all the software offered.
Expand and decide if you need to install that package.
Assure that you download and install only the most recent versions of each driver or program.
Save the appropriate *.exe installation package on your computer
NOTE the name and the location - the *.exe file will likely save to "Downloads “
Install the Software / Driver installation package: If you have ‘Admin’ control, you may highlight the package(s) and “double-click” to install, else Right-Click, Select ‘run as Administrator’ and install.
NOTE: There is sometimes a lot of information at the computer’s website. Take a look at what’s available and bookmark the page for later reference.
