Is the BIOS update safe for W10 Y50-70?

http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/lenovo-y-series-laptops/y50-70-notebook-lenovo/downloads/DS100998^ is this update safe to install on a Y50 with Windows 10 Home edition?

I have just updated to this BIOS, still on Win 8.1 but preparing for move to Win 10. Following update to 9ECN40WW, mostly working OK, except the browser. I use 64 bit browser Cyberfox, and I am now missing the browser box, I do have the search box, and on the download arrow, it does not show coloured (green) as files are downloaded. Also, when I look at customising the toolbar, (additional tools and features), that screen now is completely blank. I have cleared cache, and reinstalled browser, but this has not corrected the problem. Is there a bug in BIOS 9ECN40WW? How do II find and load a previous BIOS, as a search seems to display only the currently available BIOS? Also how do I communicate this to Lenovo, as they seem not to answer their support phone linein the UK?

  • Bios update UEFI for Pavilion dv6-6b13ss

    hello guys,
    Cant find the Bios update UEFI for my Pavilion dv6-6b13ss, tried everything possible still can't find, any solution please?
    The other proplem i have that HP detect my computer model as Pavilion dv6-6b13ss but on the bottom of my device is written  Pavilion dv6 6166ee so whats seems to be the proplem here? 
    PS : when update the bios with file HP presented for Pavilion dv6 6166ee i got the message that this bios update its not for this model.
    thanks,

    Hi @aliens1983 
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    It is a terrific place to find answers and information!
    For you to have the best experience in the HP forum I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide Learn How to Post and More
    I grasp you are unsure of the exact model notebook  you have as the auto detect states you have the Pavilion dv6-6b13ss but the sticker on the bottom states it is Pavilion dv6 6166ee .
    It is most likely the former as that is what the tool detected after scanning your system for information.
    Here is a link to How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number? that may also help to clarify this for you.
    Here is a link to the HP Pavilion dv6-6b13ss Entertainment Notebook PC Support And Drivers where it does list the latest recommended bios update as F.1C.
    I hope this helped.

    Hi mate
    As far as I know Toshiba European driver page does not provide any details what has been changed in the BIOS.
    But I found some details on Toshiba US page.
    It seems that Fn+N+1/2/3/4 debug function has been removed in BIOS 2.0 to avoid keyboard abnormal behavior.

  • New NF980-G65 with an AMD X6 1090T and the BIOS Update Utility Crashes?

    Last week I received my new NF980-G65 board and with it an AMD Phenom II X6 1090T (Thuban 3.2GHz Socket AM3).  After installing the board and starting it up for the first time I noticed that it reports BIOS version 1.1 and CPU unknown.  Next I downloaded the BIOS update to version 1.3 from msi, made a boot USB stick and powered up again.  System will not boot from USB.  I tried now over 20 different sticks from 256MB to 64GB and none of them worked!
    Went back to my old system and ripped its floppy drive out to install it in the new computer.  Had to go to RadioShack since I have not touched a floppy in over 10 years, but they had some on clearance.  Made me a boot disk, put the new BIOS and install utility on it, booted the system with the floppy, started the BIOS update utility and watched it crash.  When I start it by itself it gives me three screens of options and commands, but as soon as I try to use one of the commands or update the BIOS it keeps crashing.
    What do I have to do to get the BIOS on the NF980-G65 updated so it will run with my AMD X6 1090T processor?
    Thank you in advance for ANY help...

    What thing are you talking about?  You are experiencing the a certain symptom for which you do not know the cause.  For some strange reason and without any in-depth tests you seem to assume that the board must be the problem (ignoring all other components (for example your factory overclocked memory modules).

  • How do I roll back the BIOS update on Satellite U400-157?

    I recently updated a Tempro alert for BIOS update for the note book. I now notice that the screen blanks out a few times at PC start up. It was't there before. How do I roll back the BIOS update to an earlier one.
    I don't get to see the BIOS update screen else where other that the time that I did the BIOS update.

    Hi
    To be honest I dont understand exactly what is your problem.
    You said: . I now notice that the screen blanks out a few times at PC start up.
    What does this mean exactly? Is your display black until Windows has booted up?
    To be honest, I dont think that BIOS update would be the reason for that go to BIOS (press F2) and set the BIOS to default settings (F9) and save the changes (F10).
    If you want to get back the earlier BIOS version, then you will need to flash the BIOS ROM module using an DOS based BIOS version. On the Toshiba European driver page you can find only the win-based versions

    First I don't think you or anyone should put up with having only 3 channel memory when they paid for 4. If the board or CPU are faulty they should be replaced.
    You can start with MemTest86 or MemTest86+. MemTest86 has multi CPU test option that is more real life like, I don't know about MemTest86+, haven't used it for quite long time.
    Before using Prime95, make sure you have CPU/Core temperature monitoring software  such as RealTemp, Core Temp, HWiNFO, or CPUID HWMonitor.
    Prime95, I assume th 64-bit version, but this create a lot of heat, what cooler do you have?
    You can choose to run 6 threads instead of 12, it should be stressfull enough, also you can add the line Code: [Select]
    CpuSupportsFMA3=0 to local.txt to disable FMA3 instructions that are more stressful on the CPU but not necessarily on memory.
    If it is still too hot (>70c) add Code: [Select]
    CpuSupportsAVX=0Do not close the window to stop the test, select exit from the file menu.
    Or you can try OCCT which is all-in-one, stress + monitoring in one program. Select Large Data Set to stress memory. It also runs somewhat cooler than Prime95.
    trust me i agree i talked to msi support and got no help they just kept telling me they know about the issuse and should have a fix for it soon, But yet i have seen many people say they have the same problem over 5 months now.......  So i just talked to amazon and they said no problem they will give me a refund so now i need to find a good board to work with my i7 5820k 2011-3 pcu

    BIOS Recovery Feature
    For AMI BIOS
       1. Rename the desired AMI BIOS file to AMIBOOT.ROM and save it on a floppy disk. e.g. Rename A569MS23.ROM to AMIBOOT.ROM
       2. Insert this floppy disk in the floppy drive. Turn On the system and press and hold Ctrl-Home to force update. It will read the AMIBOOT.ROM file and recover the BIOS from the A drive.
       3. When 4 beeps are heard you may remove the floppy disk and restart the computer.

  • BIOS update question for Qosmio F50-10k

    hiya:
    +This Bios Update adds increased functionality to your system.+
    +(BIOS is an acronym for Basic Input and Output System. This program is stored in a Read-Only Memory chip on the motherboard.+
    +When the computer powers up, the BIOS is launched to perform various start-up functions.)+
    +For detailed update information please refer to Toshiba BIOS-Update Information+
    +Qosmio F50 2.00-WIN32 Toshiba+
    Is it going to work on toshiba F50-10k, Windows xp, sp 3 ?
    [Notebook->Qosmio->Qosmio F series->Qosmio F50|http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_bios.jsp?service=EU]
    Message was edited by: kirekk

    Qosmio F50-10k belongs to the PQF55E series.
    If you want to update the BIOS you will have to use the BIOS exactly for the F50 PQF55E series.
    The Toshiba European driver page provides BIOS for Vista 32bit and 64bit OS.
    But this does not mean that you cannot use the Win XP
    I think you can use the Win XP but fact is that the BIOS has been optimized for Vista and not for XP
    The BIOS update should work also using XP but in some very rare cases the update could not be performed and in such case you will need the Toshiba preinstalled OS in order to update the BIOS

  • BIOS Update Utility for Win8 x64?

    I need to install a BIOS update available for the H430, but Lenovo doesn't offer an update utility that runs under 64-bit Windows. The instructions in the BIOS download say to download an ISO image file and burn it to a CD. That's fine, but I can't find any such file on the Lenovo site.
    How do I install a BIOS update on an H430 running Win8 x64?

    Hi, when I try to update the BIOS from 1.4 to 1.6 I get the following error message "The image file c:\....\7185v16\AWFL859G.exe is valid, but is for a machine type other than the current machine" .  The reason I am doing an up date is because its detecting my CPU at 0 revs.  But when i use another scoket on the MB (system fan) it reads it ok.  And when I put the system fan into CPU, its ok as well  .  Hence the Update.  Plus I cant get "live update 3.75" to work as get the following error all the time "service has not started" (not to bothered about this error).  I am currently using XP Pro x64 Edition  .
    Regards
    GGMan
    ok, let me understand. you want to update because the CPU fan shows 0 rpms in BIOS. if you put the system fan on the CPU fan connector, then it shows a correct value for rpms? then the BIOS is not a problem, but the fan is. did you check if the fan was actually spinning or the connector was properly inserted? anyway, have you also checked if the BIOS version you want to flash to contains a fix for your problem? you can see that in the BIOS release notes.
    it seems to me that you are trying to flash with the wrong BIOS. make sure that if you flash, you use the correct one for your mobo.

    Do I install it all over again or when I have windows open?

    Back up your system drive completely. If you have no backup plan in place, now would be a good time to start. You can use CarbonCopyCloner to make a complete, bootable backup of your system on another drive or volume. After you have done this: download the combo update using the link supplied by Niel and run the installer.

    Minimally you need Snow Leopard or greater:
    Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard — Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
               terms apply.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service — this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion — System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
                 Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
    Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
