Hello,
I am trying to repair a Toshiba Satellite L300D-10Q laptop that won't
boot ever since my nephew decided to flash the bios and then turned off
the power part-way through. So now, when I turn on the power, the LEDs
flash and the fan and DVD whirrs but that's about all. A sure sign that
the BIOS is not working.
Searching around on the web quite a bit, I found a procedure to reinstte
the BIOS. It burning the original bios file to a CD.
My problem is where to get hold of the original bios file.
The Toshiba website provides a download to upgrade the bios from inside
Windows. It's an executable windows programme, that upgrades the bios
while Windows is running. But the bios itself is no doubt burried inside
it somewhere deep.
Anyone know where to find the bios. Or maybe they could post it. Please.
Thanks
