[REQUEST] Toshiba Satellite L850 BIOS Unlock/Flash/Mod

[ShingChen]

I can't install 6.80 because it said

Please insert system battery.

My system is Windows 8

I used AC power because my battery is broken

Can anyone fix it?

Ok, it's back up. Same URL as before.

I keep getting an error message saying that the bios ROM is the same.

Lol, sorry. The 6.07 were the first ones that poped up when searching for Toshiba Satellite L850 on google. i'll mod the 6.80 right away!

---

Luckily the incorrect version I modded was hiding the tabs in the exact same way, I didn't have to do any extra work to modify 6.80. Howver there were 2 different roms in 6.80 though that are flashed depending on what OS is running. So I modded both of them. Here you go

hi - first I want to say, that the modded bios is also working on my L850-1k0; BUT then I tried to enable the internal intel grafic card (which by default is not showing up in the original bios version nor in windows or mac OS, there is only the AMD hd7670m showin up and active), which I could change in advanced menue, and after a reeboot led to an unbootable machine. Black Screen, also at the vga or hdmi for external monitor, only to lights for hdd are flashing slowly, no sound, then the lights are  ...

So I tried to reflash the original bios with wincrisis - but I am not sure which key combination is working for this model when powering on (tried fn + esc, fn + f, windowskey + f) but without success, the files on the usb flash drive is not read or executed (which would be indicated by a flashing light on the thumb drive)

Do you perhaps know the key combination for this Model?
I am also not quiet sure, which name the actual bios file should have, I tried BIOS.FD on a FAT and a FAT32 formated USB drive...
Help would be appreciated very much, thank YOU!

I'm re-upping the thread in case one of the modders will pitch in. I flashed Donovan's modded bios for win 8 (link) on a Toshiba L850 (pskg8e). It went through, but the "new" advanced tab is still hidden. I  flashed it over the same version of Bios (6.8) disabling the version check.
Original BIOS from Toshiba.
Can someone please look into it? I need to access the PCI express menu and remove the wifi module whitelist if possible.

Will donate.


Update: got it working after a dozen flashs.

Hello 

I tried the mod bios from here v.6.7 I installed ok but when I tried v6.8 it show message for secure boot is on. 
In my bios I don't have option to change it it's just missing - saw video and pics but in my bios is missing. 

My model is Satellite L850-166 (PSKDGE-00X00NMD)

I upgrade to default v.6.8 but I would like to switch secure boot off because I would like to change the boot option to UEFI need to upgrade.

Is there any chance to show that option in bios - or maybe key combination to show that option in the menu?

Here is the backup of my bios : Backup of BIOS

Is it possible to add Intel Option ROM to the bios? I want to use raid0 of two ssd (one of them in the dvd caddy)

This BIOS is not for your notebook PC
