BIOS update Headache

[KeithD]

You sure it was BIOS? As that shouldn't really effect the running of the system noticable to you, and only takes a few seconds to do, and generally it runs in a safe DOS mode as it's dangerous running it direct from Windows. Sounds like some normal uploads may have gone a bit weird on you, so just do a System Restore.

it said important BIOS driver updates , what i did read said for motherboard ,and about update said will give better enhancement onscreen, the notes have disapeared now so thats just a little about what i remember, the download install didnt take long at all, it was the mess it left me in after sorting out my wep router connection ect, i would never have considered messing with anything to do with bios, but as it was from toshiba for my lap top i did,,, wish i hadnt

i did do a system restore, though a restore point wasnt saved just prior to this, i took one from a week or 2 ago,

and iv done all the maintenance too to try clean things up, seems to be running better now,
but dont feel its quite right, i can can just see how it goes on,,

i know one thing , never again

took the day thinking of what you said aabout bios shouldnt effect,,

looks like some coincidental happenings which i thought was the bios update,

though i think because of the update, it caused windows to update wirless adapters and kicked out my wirless connection somehow, after sorting that, it still didnt seem right,, so like i say thought about what you said,for a while before having a good second check over my comp, remember i said also i did a restore to try fix it, well today i scanned for outdated programs again, i had just a few days ago updated flash and adobe, i looked in programs to find the old ones where back alongside the new ones, must have been the restore caused it,, i uninstalled the old ones again, and fingers crossed everythings seems good now,

thanks boss for you help, and everyones elses input too
