TECRA 8100 BIOS update problem - PLEASE HELP!

Hi.
I have Windows XP and I try to update bios with win-BIOS-250.exe. But when I run this file it appears a window with communicate: TOSHIBA Common Modules is not installed. I don't have floppy drive - maybe it is the reason. Is there any possibility to update bios without floppy drive?

Hi
If You cannot or do not want to install the Common Modules, there is another trick to try.
Sure it's a lot more complicated, but it will enhance the cool image you already have :) Your friends will be highly impressed!
It will also demand some tech knowledge on how to handle diskette images and create bootable CD's.
You can download the BIOS-diskette intended for traditional BIOS updates to another PC - one that has a diskette drive.
Create the diskette there.
Start a CD burning software and choose to create a bootable CD. Normally the burning software will ask you to provide the bootable diskette - point to the one You just created. Burn the CD.
Done!
Now you can boot the 8100 on the CD and it will upgrade the BIOS.
Maybe a waste of CD-media...but if you really need it...

  • 10.4.10 Update Problem-- PLEASE HELP!!!

    I have a 17" Powerbook 1.33GHz. I just installed the 10.4.10 update. Now the computer wont boot on a power adapter. I had problems after the first update with changing state while the computer was asleep (ac adapter to battery) which would result in black screen and forced a hard reboot. Now when I try to power-up the computer from the restart (or regular reboot) it just doesnt boot. Please help if anyone has any ideas. I dont mind even if there is a way to undo this update.
    Jacek

    Alright - I think my computer is good again. Here is what I did. I dont know how much of this will actually do anyone any good, but I figured if I listed it all step-by-step, maybe it would do some good to someone.
    1) Restarted with AC in. Didnt boot - black screen
    2) Restarted with no AC in. Booted up ok. Restarted again (I guess it was a double restart) Booted again alright.
    3) Plugged in the AC, computer froze :-\
    4) Did a powerbutton hard reboot (5 second hold down)
    5) Computer died - I left if at office overnight. (By died i mean wont boot with AC adapter)
    6) Computer turned on fine in the AM. Some of my Brother drivers got a little fudged, so I had to reinstall them. Needed a restart (on AC)
    7) Didnt restart (black screen)
    8) PMU Reset
    9) So far so good...

  • Iphoto update problem-please help

    Hi everyone,
    everything started trying to look some photos out of a CD (200 JPG files) I was trying to import them to my library but the program crashed or stopped everytime at photo number 31. I was using Iphoto 5.0.4 so i decided to update it to 6.0.3 version but when I select the destination (Macintosh HD; 55.8 GB-35.3GB Free-)
    I got a message saying:
    You cannot installed it in that volume because the eligible iphoto application was not found in the location / Applications/iPhoto.app
    I looked, and the iphoto is under applications, now I'm not sure if I have memory space problems or what, could anyone please help me?
    I am not familiar with this, so I'll appreciate any advice.
    thanks

    Hi panis,
    iPhoto 5.0.4 is the last update to iPhoto 5. To
    update to 6.0.3 you have to purchase iPhoto 6 (part
    of iLife 6) first, then update to 6.0.3.
    thanks for the answer,
    but i am still having problems using the iphoto 5 then.
    I try to import the photos I have in a CD but the program blocks and I'm lead to force to quit when working on it.
    I don't even can see the photos all the photos from the CD in thumbnail version, and I've tryed in a PC computer and I am able to see all of them. memory problems?
    the computer is asking lately to quit an application or to restart it.
    any idea?
    ibook G4; 1.42 GHz; 512 MB   Mac OS X (10.4.5)

  • B1WS Update Problem -- please help.

    Hi,
    I am trying to get B1WS to work and am experiencing some issues I am hoping you can please help with.
    We are wanting to be able to add, edit and remove batch information for order line items.
    The code I have written will work, though it will only work once, when it is updating the document.
    If the code is run, with the Update command commented out, it will work every time.
    But if it does update the record, it will begin to crash with it is run again.
    The code I am using is:
        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
            loginWebRef.LoginService ls = new loginWebRef.LoginService();
            string sessionID = ls.Login("SQL-PATCH", "SBOJFDC_US", loginWebRef.LoginDatabaseType.dst_MSSQL2005, true, "sa", "PASSWORD", "manager", "PASSWORD", loginWebRef.LoginLanguage.ln_English, true, "LICENSE:30000");
            Response.Write(sessionID + "<BR><BR>");
            orderWebRef.MsgHeader msgHeader = new orderWebRef.MsgHeader();
            msgHeader.SessionID = sessionID;
            msgHeader.ServiceName = MsgHeaderServiceName.OrdersService;
            msgHeader.ServiceNameSpecified = true;
            orderWebRef.OrdersService order = new OrdersService();
            order.MsgHeaderValue = msgHeader;
            DocumentParams param = new DocumentParams();
            param.DocEntry = 89364;
            param.DocEntrySpecified = true;
            orderWebRef.Document document = new orderWebRef.Document();
            document = order.GetByParams(param);
            StringBuilder orderSb = new StringBuilder();
            orderSb.Append("Order " +  document.DocNum.ToString() + "<BR><BR>");
            foreach (DocumentDocumentLine docLine in document.DocumentLines)
                orderSb.Append("Line Num:    " + docLine.LineNum + "<BR>");
                orderSb.Append("Item Code:   " + docLine.ItemCode + "<BR>");
                orderSb.Append("Description: " + docLine.ItemDescription + "<BR>");
                foreach (DocumentDocumentLineBatchNumber batch in docLine.BatchNumbers)
                    orderSb.Append("+++++ Batch Num:    " + batch.BatchNumber + "<BR>");
                    orderSb.Append("+++++ Quantity:     " + batch.Quantity + "<BR>");
                    if (batch.Quantity > 0)
                        batch.Quantity = 1;
                orderSb.Append("--------------------------------<BR><BR>");
            order.Update(document);
            Response.Write(orderSb.ToString());
    Do you have any idea why the update will only work once, and then need to have the machine rebooted so it can work again, only once?
    Is there a way to test this with DIServer directly, to be sure whether it is a DIServer issue, or a B1WS issue?
    Thank you,
    Mike

    Hi,
    I have understood why there is no aspnet process...  It is because I am using a Windows 2003 Server, which uses a process called "w3wp.exe".
    I was able to attach to the process, and to get the breakpoint working in Visual Studio, though I do not know what I am looking for.
    Everytime I do one update, I have restart the machine, or subsequent calls either timeout, or crash saying the response is malformed.
    If I could navigate the XML and update the data DIServer uses, I would use that instead.
    Thank you,
    Mike

  • IPhone Application Update Problem -- Please Help

    So I downloaded the application Aurora Feint. Synced it to my iPhone and all was well. Then apparently there was an update. Instead of logging onto iTunes and updating it that way, I decided to try out the Application Store update feature on the iPhone itself. The problem is that the feature won't work for programs later than 10MB. (Aurora Feint is 20+MB.) So now I'm left with an unusable Aurora Feint update icon on my screen that is just taking up space.
    I tried holding down the icons so I could just click the X to get rid of it. Problem is the update icon has no X. Then I tried syncing my phone via iTunes and telling it to remove the AF application. Supposedly it did. But when I disconnected the phone, the AF update icon is still there.
    Can someone please tell me how to get rid of the blood thing?

    If all else fails, first remove the app from iTunes (delete it), then do a restore of the iPhone. It should be gone after the restore.

  • Major Update Problem - Please Help

    Forgive me if this topic has been covered before, but its late here and I don't have time to trawl through the forums.
    So, here's the deal. I purchased the iPod Touch software update (the one that lets you use apps) for $12.99 and I was told, after purchase mind you, that all of my songs and playlists would be deleted if I installed the software. The problem is that the playlists only exist on my iPod Touch and I have songs from so many versions of iTunes that I have lost count (my friends and I share songs all the time), therefore if it is all deleted it will be nearly impossible to piece my iPod back together. Is there a way to backup all of my iPod's data with iTunes so I can restore it after the update?

    The IP of your Software Update Server looks strange, not sure if it's correct or not. But it looks like a hamachi IP (VPN).

  • IPhone 3G, updating problem - please help!

    i have installed the latest iphone software onto my 3G but when i download apps it says I haven't got the latest iphone software.. what shall i do?!
    Also can I get ios 5?

    The last version of iOS to be supported is 4.2.1. If apps require something higher, you will not be able to use them. The only way around this is to buy a new phone. You can NOT install iOS 5 on an iPhone 3G.

    Did you check your security software (firewall)?
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

  • X-Fi Fatal1ty Plat1num Champion Ed. problem, please help!

    9X-Fi Fatalty Platnum Champion Ed. problem, please help!? Hi there everyone,
    So i have a X-Fi Fatalty Platnum Champion Ed. and a computer with Windows 7.
    I've searched the web and i found many people saying that the card it's working and perfectly compatible so i would like to exclude this option as far as the problems that i'm having.
    So, right out of the box i've placed the front panel in with the ribbon cable and the power connected to it, then i connected the other end of the ribbon cable and finally placed the card in one of the PCI slots i have free.
    Now, when i start my PC, i don't hear any particolar "beep messages" but nothing will come on the screen, in few words my PC will not boot at all. I can hear the HDD spinning, everything sounds normal except for that "little" problem.
    So, i re-did all the connections thinking that maybe i did something wrong, but following the instruction i did exactly as told. So i tried again to power up the computer and i've noticed that the X-Fi logo is lit up (red light) and.. I don't really know if that means something or it's just something aside that doesn't really matter.. But, what is it's The PCI card is broken or there's something else?
    I did try to disable the sound card (integrated mobo sound) from the BIOS but that didn't change anything. I did try all the software options but this looks like more of an hardware problem (please correct me if i'm wrong and/or i've missed something).
    There's something that popped up in my mind.. the PSU. I noticed that i have a 300W PSU (mm.. low, isn't it's)?and i was wondering if that's enough or i need a more powerful one.. and if that's may be the case for the PCI to not work at all causing all i've already explained above. I mean.. It seems like i've installed a dead peripheral and that's impeding the computer to start up..
    I don't know.. I need clarification and help, PLEASE.
    Thank you very much in advance!

    Look at the beta thread sticked above but good luck waiting for a new driver. That beta driver has been there since January and although better than the normal driver it is still crap.
    All the boot type issues are with the SSD but if you getting in game crashes etc... under windows 8 that is simply that the driver stinks.

  • [Other 865 Series] 865PE Neo3-F (SATA and PATA problems),please help,thx

    Hi
    I have MSI 865PE Neo3-F mainboard and I have a few little problems with Neo.
    My first:
    I have HDD Maxtor DiamondMax10 300GB,16MB cache,SATA.When I was installing Windows,(widows setup) it shows that HDD has only 131GB.BIOS shows 251GB.what does it mean?Not supported HDD or only 130GB for one partition?
    My second:
    I want to connect also P-ATA HDD,but BIOS don´t see him.
    What would be IDE settings in BIOS and also jumper settings on PATA HDD and DVD when I want use:
    SATA as Primary Master (system disk)
    PATA as Secondary Master
    DVD-ATA IDE as Secondary Slave
    My last:
    What I should installing when I want to use all advantages of SATA HDD and what would be BIOS settings?
    PLEASE HELP IT IS URGENTLY,CAUSE I HAVE TO WORK TO MY SCHOOL
    ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED.
    Thank you

    At the first thank you for your reply.
    Yes it works. 
    Sorry I didn´t post my OS.My OS is XP (with SP2,now).
    Configuration:
    P4 Prescott 540J 3.2GHz,FSB800MHz,HT (enabled)
    MSI 865PE Neo3-F
    2x APACER 512MB DDR400 (Dual channel,slot 1 and 3)
    ASUS FX5700 256MB
    Maxtor DiamondMax10 300GB,16MB cache,7200rpm
    DVD-RW Plextor 716AK
    After installing Service Pack 2 windows shows that HDD has 300GB,but I created two partitions before (C:\ [30GB] and D:\ [100GB] in windows setup) and now (after install SP2 E:\ [170GB]) one partition in Windows.Problem how do I put together last two partitions (D:\ and E:\) to one partition?
    so if I right understand after this settings in BIOS:
    Native Mode
    ATA Configuration - PATA only (or SATA-only)
    SATA Keep enabled - yes
    PATA Keep enabled - yes
    PATA channel selection - both
    and what about another two options in this menu?what are the settings?(somtehing about 1st channel and so on)
    connections looks like that:
    on  IDE ATA100 cable from IDE1 will be connect HDD ATA100 as Master and DVD as slave?
    on SATA cable from SATA1 will be connect HDD SATA?
    How system knows which one from two Masters HDD is System disk?from Boot menu?
    Is some page on the web where can I find closer explain of IDE (SATA) settings for MB MSI?
    Sorry for questions,but I am working at the first time with SATA disk
