Hello all !
Recently I stucked with very weird problem.
3 monthes ago I did upgrade to my bios.
Utility that I used is Flashbios - was download from toshiba site :
Flash BIOS version 5.20 for Tecra A7 (Intel) (PTA70U)
All things seems to be good, all programs worked fine..
This week I decided to upgrade WindowsXp to latest version.
After installation I started install drivers and suddenly in Virtual Sound driver
I recieved Pop Up message " You Machine is not support this future"
ok I said and inserted Image drive to my DVD and for my surprise
I get popup
" This Image drive is for models Satellite a105, and your model is m110 !!!"
I downloaded fresh ACPI flashbios utility - installed it with
the same resoult !!!
I installed 2 different versions of Windows - no metter !!

What can I do ??? :4-dontkno
(now I can't rollback bios becouse FlashBios Utility says that I have newer version than I want to install..)

please somebody help !!!

Hi, and welcome to TSF! :wave:

Look in your manual for information about a recovery partition. Give that a try.

If that doesn't work, the best option is to buy a retail copy of Windows XP. You can get a retail copy of Windows XP home for pretty inexpensive now.

Hi TheMatt !
As I also have told earlier - Recovery disk is not accepted now by my laptop.
I installed 3 different versions of Windows Xp, the last one is my old version that worked just fine before that.
First version of Windows that I installed was WinXP Pro Essential, after that installation the problem appeared and no one of installation of different version doesn't solve the problem.
