Hello,
I have a Toshiba satellite 2805-s603. When it is powered on, it displays the following message: "Bios is damaged! (call your serviceman)
Serviceman: Place maintenance disk in drive and press any key when ready" [without the double quote].
I have downloaded Toshiba Bios setup program and inserted the resulting floppy into the laptop, however, the same message is displayed.
Any help or suggestion is appreciated.
Thank you!
Ben
Toshiba with bios problem
There's a difference between configuring the BIOS and re-installing it. I think the message indicates that the BIOS needs to be re-flashed, while the BIOS setup disk is only to configure the BIOS.
Tested patched BIOSes. Untested patched BIOSes.

Thanks for the answer ... However, I cannot access the BIOS and this laptop has just arrived ... I do not have any info nor history... How can I tell which BIOS is appropriate for this laptop? AMI? Phoenix? etc...
Where do I find the Bios flash program and procedure to use it?
Thank you for your help!
