Satellite M40- after BIOS update sound doesnt work anymore

After i was update my Toshiba M40 (ATI) from default bios to version 1.5, my sound card (audio) was disabled...
I can't use audio - after reinstall of drivers - it's found a new hardware - but say - is broken...
What's up?

Hello polewiak
I am a little bit confused with your BIOS update. I have checked the Toshiba download page and there are updates available but you must be careful which one you use.
Version 1.50 is designed for units with INTEL graphic chip and version 1.20 for units with ATI graphic chip. If I am understood you right you have updated INTEL BIOS version on your ATI unit. Am I right?

Satellite P500 - After BIOS update the number pad isn't working anymore

I just got a Satellite P500 and am running Windows 7. I downloaded all of the latest drivers and updated the system bios to version 1.70 (from Toshiba's support website). Now, my number pad on the keyboard is not working.
The numlock light is on and when I hit the "6" key on the number pad, it turns the light on/off but the behavior of the other keys does not change whether it is on or off. The "-" key enters a "6" but none of the other keys (except "enter" does anything.
I removed the keyboard driver and restarted to re-install the keyboard driver but that had not effect. The keyboard did work for a few days after I flashed the bios but seems to have stopped since I started using a USB mouse. I tried uninstalling the USB mouse driver but that did not do anything either (it was a Logitech driver).
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance

I'm having this exact same issue, Did the BIOS update, which fixed the problem for Vista X64, formatted the machine to windows 7, Number pad keys except 6 and - Register as the Fn Button, Bringing up the function shortcuts display when pressed in windows, recovered from 7 to Vista X64 using Built in recovery partition, Problem still exactly the same. i have reset BIOS to defaults twice now, which has not resolved the issue. the next step will be to reflash the bios with the update again to see if this will fix the issue as it did once before. Laptop Model P500/025 Or Part number PSPE8A-025002
*EDIT: I reflashed the BIOS with 1.70 Again and the number pad is back to normal. Seems like an extreme fix for a silly problem. Every time you format you have to Reflash your bios, risky no?*

Satellite M40X: After Bios update keyboard keys don't work properly

I have a Satellite M40X and I had update the Bios to v. 1.60 and now the keys u, m, 7 and the arrow up are not working properly. The problem is that there is not other Bios version to use.
How can I resolve my problem?
Can I recover the old bios version?
Thanks
Gabriel

Hi there,
no you wont be able to recover the old BIOS. The only two options are:
1. Retry the BIOS update and check if its working
2. In case of no success, please visit the [ASP Locator|http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/generic_content.jsp?service=EU&ID=ASP_SUPPORT] to search for the nearest ASP in your country and to ask them for a hardware checkup and repair.

Satellite L - After BIOS update it won't start up again

I just got an email saying there was a BIOS update for my laptop. It started to install but my computer shut down and won't start back up
PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!
The update was: ACPI Flash BIOS version 1.90 for Sat/Sat Pro L355D/L305D (PSLE0U, PSLC0/1U)

Hello
And what Satellite notebook you have exactly? Is your notebook designed for this update or is it another model?
After a failed BIOS update you can try this workaround: Remove the AC/DC adaptor and battery then wait one hour. After this connect the AC/DC adaptor and battery again. Now try to start the notebook again.
If the notebook doesnt start you need help from a notebook technician. Therefore contact the nearest authorized service provider. They can help and will try to reflash the ROM module I think or the mainboard must be exchanged.

After bios update sound is going to headset. can't get sound to speakers - Pavillion dv7-6c67nr

windows-7 64 bit. Installed BIOS update from HP Support Assistant, No sound from laptop speakers. Clinked on speaker icon, showed sound going to the headphones and not speakers. No luck changing. No headphones ever

Hi kcperry,
I had similar issues and suggest that you might try going directly to the HP driver web site for your system at http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?product=5218614&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&lang=en&cc=us , enter in your operating system and then reinstall the BIOS.
I, too, lost sound to my speakers and Beats Audio didn't work when HP did automatic updates to my BIOS and then my audio driver. Turns out that the audio driver that HP downloaded was for my system but not my operating system (I have Windows7, but got the driver for Windows8) - I also suspect that the BIOS update was not for my os, because when I installed the correct version of the audio driver for my system/os, my system asked if it installed correctly due to an os conflict, also my system also became very slow.
--> In the end, I installed the BIOS update and then reinstalled the audio driver making certain the downloads were for my system and my operating system -- and now all is working fine !!!
Another thing I noticed is when I use HP’s ‘scan for solutions and updates’ on their website, it says I need to update my video driver. The video driver it lists is the one for Window8, not windows7!!
Hope this works for you. If it does, please post that it worked for you and click on the solved button for others who are looking for solutions. I suspect there are a lot of users out there that have or will be experiencing the same issue.

Satellite A300 - After BIOS update black screen

Hello all,
I just applied the BIOS update on my Satellite A300. After the update successful, the system does a reboot. Now when I try to power it up I get no display, I can hear the hear running, the CD Drive reading the DVD, led blinking.
The Toshiba ASP tolled me (phone call) the mainboard should be replaced after a unsuccessful bios update, but it's very expensive for me, :(
Please can you tell me if they are any way to fix it without mainboard replacement? The bios is a Insyde and according to the website the bios has bios [Recovery Technology|http://www.insydesw.com/press/2008/press_060308.htm]. I guess that the ASP doesn't know that.
Please can you tell me how to start the recovery procedure if it's possible (key combination?),
Any help about fixing the laptop without mainboard replacement will be much appreciated.

There are cases when the chip that containes the bios is removed from the motherboard and with a memory writing device (special to do this) it is posible to rewrite the bios(in my country, Romania it is not possible at the Toshiba Service, they change the motherboard wich cost 400-500 euro, but there are guys in electronics who do things like this...).
This is the happy case to rewrite, when this is possible. But there are exceptions when you can't do anything and you have to change the motherboard.(bad bios update coud burn your entire motherboard or several components /parts).
In what I've read " For example, on other manufactures PC compatible systems with Award BIOS and AMI BIOS there is dedicated small area, often about 8 kiB or so, called bootblock which starts first" , if your bios si from award or ami they have lets say a small progam which starts first, checks if bios is oki then is booting normal , if not it tries to recover it and boot.
In your case this is not possible even if you have the specific computer with that kind of bios because the screen doesn't start.
*Your case is simillar to mine* so you could hope that your video card is broken and not your motherboard.
My advice to you is to go to the service and diagnostic the problem and see what is the solution.

Satellite L - After BIOS update the screen is black

Hello,
I made a BIOS update on my Windows 7 64 bit and then the OS get frozen. After I restarted the laptop, there is only black and nothing appears on the laptop.
What can I do?

Hi
Have you tried to remove the battery and AC/DC adaptor? You should test this and after one hour you can connect both devices again.
In worst case you need help from an authorized service provider. The technicians can try to reflash the ROM module.
Sorry, but I think in this case you can do nothing.

Satellite M100 - After BIOS update it doesn't boot anymore

Hey everybody :)
BIOS problem: I was updating *BIOS* by WinFlash and my laptop "freezed" so BIOS is DAMAGED. Laptop does't boot up.
I was updating my XP laptop to *BIOS 3.00* version.
How to repare BIOS?

Hey mate,
I agree with Akuma and I think in this case you can do nothing. If the notebook froze during BIOS update I think the ROM module is now destroyed and must be reflashed or exchanged. In this case only an ASP can help you.
On the Toshiba website you can find a list of ASPs and you should contact the nearest one. Speak with the technicians and they will try to help you.
Good luck! :)

Re: Satellite Pro A120 - CD/DVD drive doesnt work anymore

Hi, I have a Satellite Pro A120, and keep on having problems with my CD/DVD driver. I spoke to few of you on the phone, the fix it solution on http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314060 seems to do the trick for a couple of hours and then I am back to square one.
Today, I think I have reached the end of my possibilities, the solution above no longer works, I have a message that says that it doesn't work for the specifications of my PC.
In the meantime, something must have happened because my webcam, that I have since 2007, no longer works either, and in spite of the fact that I have tried time and time again to install those drivers, the PC just won't allow me.
It's a dead end really...
And... yes, I have done the business of going to Device Manager, disable the CD/DVD driver facility etc....
Thanks for your help
Hotxbun

Is the drive shown properly in device manager?
When you remove CD/DVD drive from the device manager after restart it should be recognized again. Can you use it after doing this?
Have you tried to reinstall OS using Toshiba recovery CD/DVD?

Satellite A300-1G5: Recovery Disk Creator doesnt work anymore

I have created my recovery disk after buying new Toshiba A300-1G5 model laptop. That recovery disk is damaged now.
I have tried to make 2nd set of recovery disk, but the application is not working.
error message comming "---- orisetenv/setenv.ini file missing.
Please anybody help how to resume the application's (Recovery Disk Creator) functionality?
Another question--- does not Toshiba have a online help facility apart from this forum? Forum is from user, can't we (Toshiba Users) get online help from Toshiba technical team directly?
If yes please send me the route to reach.

I also have a problem with the L500 Toshiba disk creation software.
I initially installed the 32 bit version of Windows 7. I created recovery disks. I then restored the 64 bit version of windows 7 from the partition.
Somehow I managed to break the Toshiba disk creation software: it starts, opens, lets me choose what option I would like, then the screen disappears and it seems like another screen will appear, but it doesnt. It is like a process tries to fire and then just gives up and dies. The same thing occurs when starting the Disk recovery creator.
So I re-restored the 64 bit version of W7 to see if that would fix my Toshiba Disk Creator disappearing after the first screen. And yes, that did fix the problem - until I opened the DVD drive drawer whilst the software tried to access the drive. Stupid, but true. So then I was back to square one.
So now I know how to re-create the error - by opening the DVD drive drawer mid-process, but I am not sure whether I feel like taking 3 hours to restore and re-install all my software to have this happen again.
I tried to uninstall (worked) and re-install (worked) the disk creation software (tc00091600g.exe) which seemed to work successfully, but nothing changed - the same problem persists.
It is as if not everything was uninstalled or there is some kind of corruption of a program or process not ending/starting when it should.
If I knew a re-restore would solve the problem permanantly, I would re-do it, but it seems there is something wrong with the software that cannot detect an open drive and cancel the current operation without corrupting the system.
I can read DVDs and CDs on the drive and will now try to install other software to burn disks, but my gripe is that I can no longer create restore disks.
If anybody has any quick fixes or suggestions, that would be appreciated. I feel like it is only a minor issue and would only take a slight tweak to fix it, but I just dont know what that is.

After ios6 update, dock wont work anymore!!!!!

I updated my software to ios6 and now my Beat-box wont recognize my iphone 4!!! Too expensive to just give up! anyone know of a solution?

Delete the file "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\SC Info\Sc Info.sidb"
If you don't know how to get there, then go to Start, then Search, and search for "Sc Info.sidb", then delete it from there.
After deleting that file, restart you computer and then try running iTunes again.

Satellite L300-26K - After BIOS update the touchpad doesn't work anymore

Hi,
like recommended by tempro, I updated BIOS from ver.2.1 to 2.2 (windows-Version). After rebooting, touchpad incl. tips doesnt work anymore. In bios touchpad is enabled, in system it says unit is working properly. FN/F9 makes no effect. Reinstalling synaptics drivers - no effect - still dead.
Satellite L300-26K
Using Vista 32bit home
How can I restore BIOS to 2.1 again? (if i try the windows-bios utility from V2.1 it says it is still installed - so I cannot downgrade by this easy way)
Please help - I need my notebook without external mouse (this works)
yours

Hi enigmo,
I cant imagine that this happened due the BIOS update. Have you tried reinstalling Windows by using Toshiba recovery disk?
This BIOS downgrade can only be done from an authorized service provider. The technicians can install every version because they have such special tools to make a downgrade.
On the Toshiba website you can find a list of them. Just give the guys and ask for that. They will help you! :)

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.
