Replacing the motherboard software can improve the performance of your mobile computer. When flashing laptop motherboards, it is recommended to use only original (factory) firmware.
It is necessary
- - Insyde Flash;
- - USB storage;
- - access to the Internet.
Instructions
Step 1
To simplify the BIOS flashing process, it is better to use a program that allows you to work in a Windows operating system environment. If you are dealing with a Toshiba laptop, download the InsydeFlash program. The utility version should not be lower than 3.5.
Step 2
Download the firmware for your motherboard. Visit https://ru.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_bios.jsp?service=RU. Fill in the provided table, indicating the required mobile computer model. Never use software designed for other laptop models.
Step 3
Prepare your mobile computer for firmware. Disconnect your device from the internet. To do this, unplug the network cable or turn off the Wi-Fi adapter. Close all unnecessary programs. Be sure to turn off your antivirus, or at least suspend it.
Step 4
If the laptop is running without a battery, shut down the computer and install the battery. Charge it 40-50%. Turning off the laptop during the firmware process will cause the motherboard to malfunction.
Step 5
Run the Inside Flash program. Click the search button and select the downloaded firmware file. Click the Start button and wait for the program to finish. Do not under any circumstances stop the process or turn off the laptop.
Step 6
If this method fails to flash the BIOS, then copy the downloaded file to a USB drive and rename it to bios.fd. Format the USB flash drive in FAT32 format beforehand.
Step 7
Turn off the laptop, remove the battery. Connect the power cable to your mobile computer. Connect the USB flash drive to the USB port. Press and hold the Fn and F keys. Some Toshiba models require different keys. Now press the Power button. If the flash drive has an indicator, then wait for it to turn on and release the Fn and F keys.
Step 8
Wait for the laptop to restart or just wait 10-15 minutes. Check the stability of the device.
