Satellite L655-S5150 Poor connection to wireless on Battery after BIOS update.

Hi Folks, New to the Forum. Sorry if this was previously covered; however need help.
Brand new Satellite L655-S5150. Updated BIOS and Eco via Toshiba Bulletin board a few days ago and have experienced wireless connection cutting in and out. Noticed it only happens while on battery power. Tried changing driver power options with no luck(I did not restart after making this change) and then changed back to default. Is there a fix for this? Should I roll back BIOS? Should I return for another PC?
Any help is appreciated.

Go to Solution.

I am not sure what is going on? I have the same laptop. I have flashed my BIOS twice. I am not sure what to say. I have never had any kind of problems with anything. I bought a Cissco ethernet router that handles all bands. I hooked the router up to comcast turned the laptop on and all was done. Get this, then I bought a LexMark 3 all in one printer. Set it up turned it on and started printing with no cables used, wireless. Deal is I have been working with computers for 20 years. The other deal, if I am not infront of the computer that is having problems it is hard for me to tell what is going on. I just don't get it. You should be able to plug it in and go for it. If you have questions I will do my best to answer them. Maybe if I can talk one through it it can be passed on.

  • 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

    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

  • Satellite Pro P100 GPU Fan off or full speed after Bios-update to 4.20

    Hello,
    after installing the brandnew Bios-update 4.20 the GPU fan is when the notebook is cool off. While working with it the GPU temperature rises up to 100C (very very hot), then the fan begins to run on medium speed and the GPU cools down. After a restart, eg. next day, the fan always runs on medium or high speed (very noisy!!). With the the bios version before this problem didn't appear.
    Has someone the same problem with his notebook?
    Did anyone have the Bios-update before 4.20 and can send it to me???

    Hi all,
    I've got a similar problem. After updating the BIOS of my SP P100 (PSPAHE) to 4.2 on of the fans runs constantly. I was very astonished about the WinPhlash Software anyway: I just wanted to see what it looks like, and it started updating BIOS virus-like automatically without any message or confirmation etc.
    With the first reboot I got a bluescreen immediately after Vista started booting. With the following reboot, the system started properly - everything seemed to be ok. Since then the system obviously can't control the fan anymore.
    The bluescreen-error is reproduceable - it occurs after each trial. I already tried to update BIOS with a freshly installed Vista (Recovery DVD) bfore installing a single problem - same result.
    I only see 2 possibilities to perhaps solve the problem: hopefully a re-downgrade to 4.0 can successfully be done. Second possibility would perhaps be to remove Vista and install XP instead hoping that the BIOS update doesn't hang up then.
    Unfortunately, the previous BIOS version is not on the support pages. . If anyone gets hold of it pls. post here.

  • Re: Satellite C55-A-1JL - fan running at high speed after BIOS update

    Hello,
    I' ve upgraded BIOS from 1.20 to 1.40, and my computer started to restart automaticly after few minutes. the fan keeps running at high speed all the time
    Anyone know why?

    Question: does the notebook work properly besides the fast running fan?
    Generally speaking after the BIOS upgrade you should always load the BIOS default settings.
    In BIOS press F9 (load default) and then press F10 to save changes.
    Try it out

  • Satellite L650-1KR PSK1JE - dead after BIOS update

    As the subject already states, my Satellite L650 - 1KR Part No. PSK1JE is totally OFF after BIOS-Update 2.40-WIN from bios-download-page.
    I tried everything: Press all buttons, take out the laptop battery, only laptop battery, ...simply nothing!
    My last hope is a hidden, very special key sequence for toshiba laptops or something like this.
    Of course my warranty is already over... :-(
    Please help!
    Thank you in advance...

    Sorry to hear you have such problem now. I presume something went wrong and now the BIOS chip is screwed up and in such situation you need professional help. Toshiba service provider can help you with this but Im afraid it can be very expensive.
    In the past I never had such problems but on the net you can find many pages with description what can be done. Visit this page and check if you can find something useful there. I mean you can try to fix it alone.

  • Display Driver Issues on Satellite L655-S5150 with Win10

    I upgraded my Toshiba satellite (L655-S5150) to Windows 10 last week.  Upgrade appeared successfully initially however shortly after the Win10 interface loads the computer will shut itself off.  After exploring a number of possibilities it turns out the computer runs fine in safe mode or in low resolution mode selected from the mainteanance menu.  So I feel quite certain like other issues I have seen with Win10 that have similarities to this one the issue is with the display driver.  I tries updating the driver through device manager but it said I had the latest.  Tried the Toshiba support pages and seem to be nothing new there for the "Intel HD Graphics" display driver.  So seems at the moment I am stuck at low res mode if I want to have a functioning computer.  Any ideas if there might be an updated driver out there, or can I change to something a little more generic that at least might allow me to boot in to normal mode and stay running?

    Yes, have tried "update drivers" option and Windows Update option.  No luck yet.  Also searched manually for an updated driver on the Toshiba site and Intel site (Intel HD Graphics display adapter).  I wish I could just load a generic display driver but every time I remove the Intel display driver and reboot it comes back after boot.  Really a fix to the problem would be nice by anyone..... Microsoft, Toshiba, Intel, anyone...... 

  • Satellite L655-S5150 Mic problem.

    Waiting for a response - ray
    When I try to record video / sound with my lap, the first pieces of sound comes clear but after 5 seconds or so, the sound goes down, when I want to record myself playing guitar, I can only hear the first 10 seconds, after that the mic "adapts" to the sound or something and lowers itself down, so the sound of the recording starts going down until it mutes and only lets very hard sounds get in the recording.
    Sorry for my English, 

    Satellite L655-S5150
    Ray
    Reinstalling your Toshiba supplied sound driver is a good place to start and should not hurt anything. Download this file to your desktop and double click to install it.
    Conexant Audio Driver(v4.119.0.60)
    But, the proper method is really going to depend on the sound recording software you are using. What software are you using to record yourself playing guitar?  Are you only recording through a microphone?  Are you using the computer's built-in microphone?

  • 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?

  • So my iPhone 4S started draining battery after recent update, battery got changed and it worked perfect for 3 days, all of a sudden the phone won't stay on unless connected to mains... Cannot receive any signal "searching" constantly. HELP

    So my iPhone 4S started draining battery after recent update, battery got changed and it worked perfect for 3 days, all of a sudden the phone  shut down and now won't stay on unless connected to mains... Claims its at 100% battery but thats impossible as it was at 30% before it shut down randomly.
    Cannot receive any signal "searching" constantly.
    Turns off as soon as removed from usb ... wont stay on connected to laptop!
    HELP!

    The iPhone includes a one year warranty. If an Apple store is not nearby, you can call AppleCare and handle an exchange under warranty over the phone. The exchange will be shipped to your door - someone must sign for the delivery so if no one will be at home, have it delivered where you work. You use the same box to return the existing iPhone back to Apple. Return shipping label and tape to reveal the box incuded - call the carrier with number incuded when the box is ready to be picked up. AppleCare will request a credit card in the event the existing iPhone is not returned within 10 days after the exchange under warranty is received.
    Hardware can fail - it happens, which is why there is a one year warranty.

  • 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 Pro C850 wont work after Bios update

    my satellite pro c850 cd wont work after bios update from toshiba.
    what do i do?

    Saying: dont work you mean it does not power up or what do you mean exactly?
    Did you flash the BIOS properly?
    Possibly something went wrong during the update and this means that ROM module isnt flashed properly
    In most cases a special BIOS crisis disk would be needed to get it working
    Not quite sure if you can get it fixed by your own
    Check this thread. Maybe it helps:

    Otherwise you need help from authorized service provider available in your country.

  • 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

  • Unable to connect to wireless printer or download firmware update

    Got an HP C4580 all-in-one wireless. Can see the device wirelessly using the HP Utility, but cannot print to it "Printer is not connected" or see it using System Preferences. Have downloaded the firmware update, but when running this it hangs at the device discovery stage (even when connected through USB) and therefore I cannot update the firmware on the printer.
    The printer will print when connected throught USB.
    Driving me nuts!
    Jim

    Thanks for the information. Network is not complex. Cable Broadband connected by ethernet to AirPort with an additional AirPort (Time Capsule) to extend the range of the network through the house.
    I did all as you suggested, and this worked fine (once) for twoMacBook Pros, and two iMacs, and now won't work on any of these again (one day later).
    Am reluctant to reset the printers again, as my print list includes five printers from work, which requires the IT Dept to reconfigure again if I clear them once more.
    HP Utility can apparently connect to the printer and give me device information, I just cannot print to, or scan from the printer.
    As advised before, I cannot install the firmware update (it may alreadybe installed - how would I know)? It just hangs when trying to seek the printer type.
    The lack of wireless printing is driving me nuts. Before the problem arose with complete loss of service, I went through a period of a few weeks where the printer would not connect after it had printed a job, and had to be switched off, then back on again before working wirelessly. Now nothing.
    Kind regards,
    Jim
