Problem Description:
Yesterday I updated my laptop's BIOS to F 5A - latest available on HP Website. Since then I have lost the bluetooth functionality, which was wroking just fine prior to the update. Now the system doesn't find a bluetooth device.
What I have already done:
1. Switched back to previous versions of BIOS (available on HP Website coz I didn't note the BIOS version before I updated it). - That didn't work.
2. Reseated the wireless card - Didn't work.
3. Manually checked the connection of bluetooth module to the motherboard - Connection was fine but it still didn't work.
4. Uninstalled the bluetooth driver and reinstalled it (HP integrated module WIDCOM) - still didn't work
5. Installed HP Wireless Agent - Didn't work
6. Installed HP Integrated module driver along with HP Wireless Agent - Didn't work
7. Installed Ubuntu to check if its recognizing the device - Even its not recognizing the device which it used to do earlier.
8. Sadly there's no BIOS setting in Setup which I can change to correct the bluetooth behaviour (Phoenix BIOS with limited interface).
After all the research, I am posting this because I am unable to find a sloution to this problem on my own. I request the members to please help.
Uday

I got the bluetooth working. Had to dismantle the laptop and found that a small switch was loose.

No updatable devices found after firmware update

Unfortunately I didn't check here before doing the latest updates. I dl'd the following on the night of July 1:
2007-07-01 01:49:08 -0400: Installed "SuperDrive Firmware Update" (2.1)
2007-07-01 01:49:31 -0400: Installed "iTunes" (7.3)
2007-07-01 01:49:35 -0400: Installed "Safari 3 Beta Update" (3.0.2)
2007-07-01 01:53:02 -0400: Installed "Mac OS X Update (Intel)" (10.4.10)
2007-07-03 00:30:01 -0400: Installed "Audio Update 2007-001" (1.0)
Since then each time I restart the computer the SuperDrive Update launches and tells me no updatable devices have been found. But this machine has a SD, unless I'm very much mistaken. Why won't the update take? Is it related to the ex HD issues I've been reading about here with 10.4.10?
I also just looked at my sys log and it could be its own novel since these updates. I was going to post it in hopes it would help the Mac guys smarter than I, but I think it would flood out this post.
I am also having the internet drop issue, again only when I'm on battery power, but I understand that's a bigger issue than just my machine. My Safari windows seem to be hanging and giving me the spinning beach-ball a lot when I try to scroll.
I ran disk repair on permissions, that's all sorted out. I don't know what else to do to resolve the firmware update. Please help. Thanks!

At the risk of sounding stupid.. how would I delete the download?
And if I have a SuperDrive, which I do, why wouldn't the update apply to me and why would Software Updater have prompted me to download it in the first place?

Bluetooth shuttted down after I updated to Mavericks, please help me !
I am 70 Years old and worked very happy with my iMac (21,5“ mid 2010, 3,2 GHz Intel Core 3)
until I updated him from SnowLeopard 10.6.8 to Mavericks 10.9.2.
2 Days all was OK. Next Morning-Start he needs (until now) 3 minutes to show me a SCREEN only milky white. After that he starts like ever with all ICONS in about 1 minute. (together 4 min.)
..But I must notice, that I cannot make anything, because the „BLUETOOTH APPLE WIRELESS KEYBOARD and the APPLE MAGIC MOUSE“ doesn't work anything like before.
I could nothing do, I must drop my APPLE only out.
That I maked ever 10x and all was the same... (Maveriks also 4x new updated)
I taked my Logitech-Bluetooth-Mouse from the WIN-Laptop, dropped it in USB from iMAC...and in one second I could work only with this MOUSE...I buyd the Logitech COMBO K520 and all was OK now with my lovely APPLE iMAC to work with him...But without APPLE KEYBOARD and MAGIC MOUSE...and with a 4 min. -START until now.
I asked the EXPERTS from APPLE-SUPPORT under Tel. 0800-6645451 in Germany, became a Number, maked many Things by starting new, but the mistake after all is the same like before.
When I look into ...Apple/ Info/System/ Hardware/ Bluetooth ..my APPLE says: NO INFOs FOUND (Es wurden keine Informationen gefunden.)
Under Hardware/ Diagnose : Selbsttest beim Einschalten: zuletzt ausgeführt: 15.05. 14, Ergebnis: Bestanden (that means OK) !!
I asked many Peaple, who sold APPLE-Computers in the STORS, but they all had no IDEA, how they can help.
I think, it could be a DRIVER when Starting the BIOS, JAVA RUNTIME a.s.o...
Is an Expert under YOU to help me by my Problem with this iMAC ?

dietmarfromdeu,
if you start up your iMac in Safe mode, do you still have Bluetooth problems with your Apple wireless keyboard and Magic Mouse?

Yoga 2 Pro Went DEAD After BIOS Update

Had a horrible experience .. with good ending ... when upgrading Bios for my Yoga 2 Pro. So I'd like to share with others. I bought my Yoga 2 Pro last June (Man 3/22/14) and love it! But, it had problem restarting automatically after Windows Update. At least 3 times (That I can recall. Did not use it briefly from June 30 - July 22), the screen reminding user not to shutdown after Windows the update would stay on until I manually powered it down and restarted it. Last July 23, it did again after Windows Update. Searched Lenovo web-site and found a Bios Update for Yoga 2 Pro (Win 8.1 64-bit). Downloaded the new Bios (dated July 11, 2014) and went through the instruction striclty. First of, the screen responses were not at all as detailed in the instruction. So, the instruction is not very good. Received 2 warnings: Make sure the laptop is connected to the charger during the procedure, and the bios is for Yoga 2 Pro ONLY do not install it on any other models. As part fo the procedure, the laptop switched to a Bios Utility program. Again received the aforementioned warnings. Update progress was shown on the screen. All of a sudden, then screen went blank and the keyboard stayed lit. Waited for about 30 minutes. Still the same. Press and held the power button down (not sure for how long) ... nothing! Just no response from the latop. Called Tech support. She (the tech support lady) said that ... it is not recommended for user to go through the BIOS upgrade! What? Then why post it on Lenovo.com? She also said that I should not have downloaded software from the internet and upgrade, especially for BIOS. Well, I told her that I did not download the program from ANY web-site, I downloaded it from LENOVO.com. She said further that looks like the BIOS update had damaged my mother-board, there is a problem with Win 8 & 8.1, and because it was my own doing ... the damage would not be covered by the warranty! Considering the circumstance, Lenovo would waiver the initial $99 fee to assess the damage, but I would have to pay for any repair costs. In any case, I was so fumed at Lenove Tech Support responses that I hung up. close my laptop and put it aside. Almost 24 hours later, when the battery drained completely, I connected the laptop to the charger, press the power button to turn it on ... and ... to my surprise, the laptop booted and everything came back normal! The last (7/25) auto restart seemed to go well. Not sure if the auto restart problem is fixed with the new BIOS, but it seems to be. Time will tell.

Thank you for your posting. I searched the net when I ran into the problem, but could not find any help. Obviously, my search was not exhaustive. I was trying to make the following: a. Lenov should be more specific in their BIOS update instruction. Their instruction was ... far ... far from reality. b. Lenovo tech assistance was ... not much help. After listening to the description of my prolem, the tech lady immediately said that the operation must have damaged the mother-board, and that the operation is not ... recommended. No guidance on draining the battery a or how to restart the machine, etc... What I received was confusing that caused more panic! As a note, I had done BIOS upgrade on DELL PC/laptop before w/o any problem. I fully understand the implication of a BIOS upgrade, but trusted that manufacturer fully tested whatever that they post in their web-site. Oh well, live ... and learn! All in all, the Yoga 2 Pro is a great machine and I love it! Hope that anyone who runs into the same problem will be able to get the needed help in time! Cheers,

BIOS update
Hello, after I updated the BIOS to version F.02 (sp50015.exe), I got this dreadful message. The system boots only with the wifi card removed. The card is a Broadcom 43224AG. It came pre-installed and worked fine before the BIOS update. The drivers for this card are not listed in the drivers page on the HP website. I am extremely frustrated since this was a factory installed component. For the record there is no previous BIOS version on the website in order to downgrade. I am extremely frustrated. Please help.

Product numbers are usually in the format of ab123cd#efg. AIC35AA#ABU didn't return any specific product for me. What is the exact model name? If you can get into Windows, Fn + Esc may provide something more specific.
What I am trying to do is find the right BIOS for this unit to roll back the BIOS so that we can isolate it exclusively to the BIOS update and at least get it back to functional while looking further into this.
If you look at the wifi card, what is the part number on it?

Satellite A series does not start up after BIOS update

After bios update with downloaded utility my notebook does not start up.
Did this case covered by warranty?

Im not quite sure if this would be covered by warranty. You should contact the ASP in your country for details but I presume its not covered.
PS: Did you try this workaround:
- remove battery, disconnect the AC adaptor
- wait ~ 40min
- connect both devices again and try to power up the notebook

Thinkcentre Edge 92z (AIO) - Dead after BIOS update

Today I started Lenovo System Update to check for new updates for my ThinkCentre Edge 92z (model 3396BSG). System Update found a BIOS update. I started System Update from my Win64 Pro System.
Initially the display was showing white characters on black background. After a while a new window appeared with yellow characters on black background.
No interaction was done by me.
Some minutes later the system turned off.
I turned the system on and - nothing. The system didn´t show any startup messages, no splash screen - nothing. During "boot" (in fact no boot at all) I was not able to enter the BIOS - the systems seems to ignore any keyboard interactions.
To my opinion something during BIOS update killed my system.
I would appreciate any hints or comments.
Thank you and regards, Ingolf.

The machine is running again - after replacement of the system board. Thank you to Lenovo support and the technican.
Regards, Ingolf.

I can't activate windows 8.1 pre-installed on my Toshiba E45-B4200 after BIOS Update

I bought Toshiba laptop Model E45-B4200, at first time I could activate windows 8.1 like a charm.
Few months later Windows 8.1 has crashed, so I did clean install of pre-installed windows, no problem so far. Toshiba Application installer app has downloaded BIOS update, so I ran it.
I tried to activate windows after BIOS update, but it didn`t work. No error message, but Change PC settings window just got minimized every time that I tried to click on Activate Windows option. I thought that I did some mistake, so I repeated windows reinstallation, and same problem occurred again.
Now I can`t update Windows, Office 2013, and so on.
I`ve tried SLUI 4 command to force activation by phone, but it didn`t work as well.
I read on MS blogs that windows 8.1 stores product key on MSDM table, windows should be activated normally. Now I got no options now, can you help me?

It shouldn't need to be activated it. Everything should be automatic. Because it's asking you, that's already indicative of a problem. You might want to call customer support.

After BIOS update Satellite L350-172 doesn't start anymore

Satellite L350-172 Bios-Update from bios-20090203164614 to bios-201002250
I just updatet the BIOS of my notebook from 1.60 to 2,20. Now the Notebook doesn't start any longer.
"It was stopped for reason not to damage the Computer" - blue schreen.
How can I downgrade the bios again? Or - what have I to change in the bios-settings?

Hi schuwe,
Im a little bit confused about your posting. How do you tell your BIOS not to restart?
Anyway, after BIOS update you should load the default settings in BIOS.
Did you choose the right BIOS especially for your model?

After BIOS update DVD driver do not read DVDs anymore - Sat A80

Hi,
I have a Satellite A80-131 and after bios update (last version 2.5) by windows procedure update, my DVD drive do not read DVD medias anymore. It is possible to read CD medias, but not DVD one.
Can I reinstall the old bios? Can I reinstall the firmware?
Thanks
Ronai Lisboa

Hi Ronai
Like Jimi has said in the posting above. It's very unusual that after BIOS updating the DVD drive hasn't read the DVDs.
Furthermore it's not advisable to use any 3rd party applications to DOWNGRADE the BIOS. Usually only the ASP can downgrade the BIOS. Such procedures are very serious and the wrong procedure can damage the motherboard.
However, it's nice that you have solved the problem and that the drive works properly.
Thanks for the feedback.

Satellite Pro L300: BSOD after BIOS update

Hi
after update the Bios of Satellite Pro L300, the windows not start!
Its show the blue dead screen!
What can i do?

Hi
Are you able to access the BIOS settings?
Im not quite sure why this BSOD appears but possibly the SATA mode settings have been changed after BIOS update
Usually the SATA mode should be set to AHCI if the SATA drivers are installed.
But if the SATA drivers are not included the SATA mode should be set to compatible.
Please check this!
Furthermore you could set the BIOS to the default settings and could try to boot the machine again.

Satellite A100-590 PSAA9E freezes on Toshiba welcome screen after BIOS update

Hi.
Yesterday I did a BIOS update on my Satellite A100-590 PSAA9E-03Z00QGR with the appropriate flash:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_driver_details.jsp?service=EU&selCategory =2&selFamily=2&selSeries=153&selProduct=624&langua ge=17&selOS=10&selType=all&yearupload=&monthupload =&dayupload=&useDate=null&mode=userMachines&search =&action=search&macId=&country=all&selectedLanguag e=17&type=all&page=1&ID=58477&OSID=-1&driverLanguage=42
bios-20070709111839.zip
After the flashing procedure the machine rebooted automatically, but unfortunately it now keeps hanging at the Thoshiba welcome screen. Also pressing F2 or F12 won't change anything. It seems like the BIOS is corrupt.
I saw, that in the BIOS package are delivered two flash files (s10gm590.rom and s10pm590.rom). But just executing the SanAntonion10 BIOS590MP.exe a .vbs script is started that decides automatically chooses and loads a flash file. Maybe it chose the wrong one?
What shall I do now? Is there a way to restore the BIOS, or do I have to send my notebook in?
Thanks in advance
MAT

> Satellite A100-590 PSAA9E freezes on Toshiba welcome screen after BIOS update
What to say Marc. It looks like you have used a wrong BIOS version or you have updated the BIOS in wrong way.
You could try to access the BIOS and try to set the settings to default.
Dont forget to save the settings if you will exit the BIOS.
But if this procedure does not help, you will have to contact the ASP in your country.
Possibly the guys will try to flash the BIOS again with other special version.
Good luck
Greetings

HP p6230a runs slow after bios update - Getting error BIODHD-8 on Diagnostic Tools

After bios update my desktop runs so painfully slow it is unworkable. Disk drive seems to be constantly hammered by processes that don't appear on task manager. Running 64 bit windows 7 (sp1). Running the diagnostic tools prior to boot up comes up with error code BIOHD-8 - A SMART test failed on the drive - please contact HP Support. Ideally would like to get previous version of bios as machine was running well before update.

I will ask my HP Employee Expert colleagues about this internally. It will take a while for them to respond.
the BIODHD-8 error code means your harddrive is failing and must be replaced.
Back up everything that you possibly can before it fails and no longer boots up into Windows .
is your notebook still within the standard warranty period of one year? A notebook hard disk is a warranty replaceable item.(no cost to you while within warranty)
