Where is the bios chip located in the Equium A210-1C4?

Have replacement bios chip for this model, but not sure where the bios chip is located on the motherboard?
Any assistance appreciated.

The BIOS chip is soldered onto the mainboard, you just can't replace it. It also needs to be programmed before usage using a special EPROM machine..

  • Where is the BIOS chip located on MSI B75A-G41

    I need to replace the bios-chip on  MSI B75A-G41. Anyone know where the chip is located?

     I thought the BIOS would be the chip with the red dot on it like on other MSI MBs.

  • Satellite Pro A200 (PSAE4E) - BIOS chip location

    Does anyone know the location of the BIOS chip on this Toshiba or have an image of something similar so I know what I am looking for? I have taken out the motherboard and despite a sticker that says ISKAA V1.20 BIOS, AAB4, U52 I cant find it (assuming U52 refers to the chip number).
    Dead laptop after a failed BIOS update so investigating getting another reprogrammed if I can find where the chip is.
    I didn't actually want to update the BIOS - I run the Toshiba BIOS util to see what version I had installed (I think every other BIOS util I have used allows you to see this info before doing anything) - the sire lists v5.6 for XP but v2.6 for Vista (haven't heard of different BIOSes for different OS's before. The Toshiba util went straight into programming - no info, no warning.
    It's not worth the cost to replace the mobo and environmentally I would prefer to at least try the chip replacement (perhaps if anyone from Toshiba is reading this and they would prefer that environmentally it would be better to try than chuck it away, then they might feel inclined to let me know where it is!)
    Any info gratefully received.
    Cheers

    Well Paul at Grains sent me a new programmed BIOS next day and it all worked perfectly. Being only 8 pins witha decent soldering iron it wasn't hard, and you don't even have to remove the motherboard as you can get to the PCMCIA mechanism retaining screws via the second hard disk slot.
    So to recap if you have killed your BIOS:
    You can pay a Toshiba ASP 150+VAT for a new mobo, plus 90+VAT fitting, plus 30 P&P
    or
    Get a new BIOS from GRAINS for 14 total inc P&P
    He will fit for I think about 50 plus postage, but that is still a lot cheaper and it you are out of warranty a good option.
    Hope the info helps someone else.

  • Equium A210-1C4 - Check BIOS Version

    There are several BIOS Updates listed on the Toshiba downlaods website for my laptop. However, I cannot remember if I have already installed them. How do I find out the current BIOS version of my PC? Does it matter if I install them again if they are already installed?

    If your notebook runs well you must not install anything, especially BIOS update.
    Start your notebook and press F2 to enter BIOS settings. There you will see actual BIOS version.

  • Where can I find guides to replace backlight for Equium A210-1C4?

    My Display Screen will not light up. I need to check a number of things, including the backlight, inverter and door switch. May need to replace the entire LED display.
    Does anyone know of instructions to do these things with this particular model: Toshiba Equium A-210/1C4

    Notebook disassembling is for authorized personal only so Maintenance manuals document is not available for download. It is not a public document.
    If you want to do this alone use Google and check if you can find some instructions written by people who have such experiences or check if you can find some short movie on YouTube.

  • Equium A210-1AS - After BIOS update it becomes hot

    Hey, wondering if anyone can help here ...
    Currently have a Toshiba Equium A210-1AS with BIOS version 1.80 ver 1.00PARTTBL 4/8/2008.
    Since the BIOS was updated some time ago to this version 1.80 the computer has become hot very quickly and therefore performance of the laptop has decreased.
    I looked on the Toshiba support site and the only version upgrade to 2.00 was not compatible with this notebook.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. The short model number is PSAFJE
    Thankyou

    Hi
    I have checked the Toshiba website and I didnt see any BIOS update for the Equium A210 PSAFJE. That means a BIOS update was never released for this notebook normally.
    For me it sounds like that you have updated the BIOS with a version for another Equium A210. So you should go to an authorized service provider. The technicians can install the right BIOS version for you (downgrade).
    Bye

  • K9AGM2-L - where's the BIOS chip ?

    I just bought a MSI K9AGM2-L. I can't find the BIOS chip of this mainboard . Could you help me find this BIOS  ? What kind of BIOS did MSI use ?

    I'm not quite sure on that MB as I don't have a picture of it but on the boards I have seen it is near the lower left corner. It has an AMI BIOS so look for a chip that has somthing like that printed on i.t
    Picture of K9AGM2-L:
    I think it using a new BIOS chip, maybe FLASH chip.

    If your your thinking of messing with it doesn't matter if you find it you can't reset the password if you don't have the unlock code. And if this is a Business or Elite model that requires you contact HP support to send you a firmware to reset that password.

  • Where are the older BIOS versions gone?

    Hi
    A few weeks back, I've upgraded the BIOS on my Pavilion G6 1001sq to the latest version (F66). I noticed that the laptop is running considearbly hotter since then and I want to revert to an older BIOS version. When I go to the updates page on the HP website and click on "older versions available" I can only see the F66 version on the page I'm directed to ( http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/previousVersions?softwareitem=ob-115746-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&os=4... ), although a long list with many versions was available till recently. Where are the older versions gone?

    Unfortunately, I do not know where they have gone. HP is working on issues with the suport and driver servers at the moment.
    Since your notebook does have the UEFI Diagnostics installed, you should be able to rollback to the previous version that was installed. Use the firmware management option to do that.

    I'm trying to track down and diagnose this error in my scheduling/bursting:

    Where is the log file to which this error message is referring? Running the OBIEE Suite 10.1.3.4.1 under Windows.

  • Where is the .m2v menu file located for saved projects?

    Hi, i've done this before, but seem to have forgotten...I was wondering where is the location of the .m2v files of a saved project. The reason why i would like to find the .m2v file, is so i could convert the .m2v to .dv in order to create a menu on motion. From my remembering, the menu file could possibly be under the project file under "show package contents", but i seem to not have any success of looking for it recently. Can anyone help verify where the menu files are located?
    thanks for your time.
    Leonard
    i've burned the project and looked at the contents of the dvd and found a file with a .evo extension, would this have any relation to my question?

    evo is HD DVD file, not SD, so this may not apply (and you probably want to double check your project settings.)
    The items that DVD SP makes are in the PAR & MPEG files in a folder in the level where the assets are located, and if you do the show package contents on the project and look in the Render Data Folder what you are looking for should be there (when DVD SP has to render, there are some times it will not have to render)- Check out the manual DVD SP 4 (Pg 230 of the PDF) for certain instances (not all) where menus willl have to be compiled/rendered
    To do the show packkage http://dvdstepbystep.com/ira/ shows how to do it, just Highlight the DVD SP saved project (instead of the app intself) as shown in Step 1 on that link, then drill down
