Portege R705-P35 BIOS release date question

Hi Everyone,
The CPU fan, thermal grease, and heatsink in my Portege R705-P35 were all replaced recently. Ever
since the repair, the fan runs near 40% constantly and the CPU temperature is also constantly
near 40%. (side: I got those numbers from Toshiba PC Health Monitor.)
Because of some other posts, I checked to see if I had the
latest BIOS version. As far as I can tell, the latest version is 2.20, which had a release
date of 01/23/2012. From looking in the Registry, my laptop has version 2.20, but with a release
date of 12/22/2011.
Does anyone know if the discrepancy in release dates means anything?
Thanks!
Portege R705-P35 BIOS release date question

Bert, I can occasionally hear the fan on my wife's machine.  On the two I use, I have never heard the fans since I've had the machines unless I put my ear right down to the keyboard directly above the fan.

  • Portege R705-P35 has limited to no sound

    My Portege R705-P35 has at best very low volume sounds.  Audio troubleshooters are unable to detect any problems.  I uninstalled and reinstalled the audio drivers, but this did not fix the problem.  My audio used to work properly, and I would like to know why it no longer works correctly.

    This is the audio driver you reinstalled?

    You may want to try using System Restore to restore a previous restore point from before this became an issue.

  • Portege R705-P35 Web Cam failed to initialize

    My Web camera fails to initialize.

    I don't see the web camera listed in my Device Manager, either.
    Any suggestions as to how I can fix this is greatly appreciated.  I do have my Recovery disks, but I don't know how to reinstall my web cam from them.

  • Portege R705-P35 - Screen/Lid Flexes and bends - Is this normal?

    My screen/lid of the laptop bends when light pressure is applied to it.  I was curious if this was normal amongst the portege 705s.  Thanks.

    I too have a bezel issue with 2 breaks.  Looking to find parts and how to replace the bezel.  Will I need to seperate the screen from the keyboard in order to replace the bezel?
    I understand that the part number is located on the underside of the bezel probably on the lower right side of it.  Does anyone have the bezel part number for a R705-P35 Protege?

  • Solaris 10 Update 5 release date question

    Did I miss the release of Update 5? I see it mentioned in docs.sun.com, but not in downloads.
    Or does anyone have availability date for it? It seems overdue timewise.

    As a practical point I doubt if will be sooner than a couple of months from now.
    For previous updates, in the couple of months before an update is released, kernel patches releases tend to dry up while all the engineers are focused on getting the update out.
    And a kernel patch was released quite recently..

  • Toshiba Portege R705-35 Fails to detect video cam and speakers

    My Portege R705-P35 laptop has stopped detecting my video cam and speakers. I have updated the system Bios, audio (Realtek) and video drivers and recently reformated to reinstall original settings and drivers.  Nothing has worked.  The device manager does not detect the video cam or the standard speakers.  When I connect my Logitech headset through the USB port it picks up both the headset and the microphone.  Both work fine through Skype and in online videos.
    Has anyone else encountered this problem and, if so, figured out the solution? 

    My Portege R705-P35 laptop has stopped detecting my video cam and speakers. I have....recently reformated to reinstall original settings and drivers...The device manager does not detect the video cam or the standard speakers....
    This seems strange for these 2 seperate devices to both fail at the same time. You could also try a proper system reset and see if this helps bring them back.  Power off your system, unplug everything including the AC, remove the battery, press and hold down the power on button for 30 seconds, replace battery and AC, power on, when you see the Toshiba logo press the 'F2' key to enter BIOS Setup, in setup press 'F9' to load setup defaults, press 'F10' to save and exit, boot into Windows, and test your webcam and speakers again.
    But, when you say that you "recently reformated to reinstall original settings and drivers", do you mean that you performed a Toshiba Recovery to return your unit to its factory default out-of-the-box setup, as directed starting on page 60 of your User's Guide? This is considered the gold standard test on whether you have an actual hardware problem/failure or not.

  • R705-P35 - Create Recovery Problem

    I bought a 16bg flash drive to create the recovery files for my R705-P35 laptop, but then ran into a problem.
    1.  After inserting the flash drive, and clicking "CREATE," I got the following message:
    Format failed!     (Note I had previously formatted the flash drive)
    (Error Code:  040E2D-00-00000000)
    ... then ...
    An Unexpected Error Occurred.
    (Error Code:  040EAE-57-00000000)
    ... then the following message appeared in the recovery file creator window ...
    "The creating process for all media has been cancelled."    (my emphasis)
    Any ideas or suggestions?

    I had previously formatted the flash drive
    I'm only guessing here.
    If you formatted it for the NTFS file system, try formatting it for FAT32.

  • New firmware m1217nfw release date and other questions ...

    Hi everybody!
    Does anybody knows when a new firmware update will be released? It seems that the latest release (2013-09-30, version 20130912) has a serious known issue and HP recommends : "Please do not update with this version" on the web site ...
    The problem is that the version installed on my printer (version 20130211) seems to have a potential security vulnerability. The vulnerability could be exploited remotely to gain unauthorized access to
    data! An intermediate firmware version (2013-07-26, version 20130703) was previously released to correct this issue but I can't find it on hp web site. Does anybody knows where I can find it???
    My last question is about firmware update : HP recommends to update firmware by using an USB 2.0 cable connected to the printer. I successfully updated the firmware (twice) with the network interface of the printer. Should I avoid this method and use an USB 2.0 cable?
    Thanks in advance for your reply.

    You can't.
    They did this for a reason, as part of FairPlay.
    There's no way to get around this.....
    If the information on the purchase content is wrong (like wrong release date), contact Apple, and they might be able to correct it.

  • MSI Big Bang XPower II X79 release date

    Whats the release date for this motherboard to the UNITED STATES?
     MSI Big Bang XPower II X79 LGA 2011

     We don't know, we have nothing to do with MSI marketing. We are MSI product users the same as you helping each other with problems and have nothing to do directly with MSI. You would need to ask MSI. Question like that my typical answer is that you will know the release date after you see it for sale in the stores.

     As a matter of fact if we knew the release dates of products like that we would post it in the forum to avoid those kind of questions all of the time.

  • I purchased an iPad mini on October 10th.  I want to return it and get the new ipad mini retina when it comes out.  How do I do that if the new ipad mini release date isn't until "later in November", which is beyond the 14 days from my purchase date?

    I purchased an iPad mini on October 10th.  I want to return it and get the new ipad mini retina when it comes out. I am currently still within the 14 day return/exchange window but how can I exchange it if the new ipad mini release date isn't until "later in November", which would be beyond the 14 days from my purchase date?  If apple announces a new version of a product you just purchased but won't actually release it for more than 14 days, how can you possibly exchange the one you just bought?  Is my only option to return the one I bought on the 10th (so return by 10/24) and then not have an iPad until the new one is available for purchase?  Or would it make any sense to return the one I bought, get a new one, which would presumably have another 14 day return window, and then exchange THAT one for the new ipad mini w/ retina when it comes out (hopefully within that second 14 day window)?

    Call the apple store you got it from and ask them. Sometimes in the past they've extended the 'no questions asked return' but only Apple can tell you for sure.

  • Why can't I browse by release date in the Albums view?

    I listen to Vocaloid music, specifically Megurine Luka. When I want to check for new releases, I do a search for Megurine Luka. I then click on Albums to see a complete list of every album in which she has at least one song. That works great, but I can't refine the search by release date. I just get a seemingly random list of albums. So, to check for new releases, I have to go through all of them, looking at the release dates. Sometimes the new releases are at the bottom, sometimes in the middle, sometimes near the top. If I had the option to view by release date, it would make that much easier. Is there a way to do this, and I'm just not seeing it?
