The Bios update listed on the Toshiba Website is defective and does not work. It's listed as Version 1.7. dated 9/13/07 If you attempt to update your BIOS using this version it will render the system unbootable.
There may be a bootblock method to recover. I don't use that process as I have access to programming equipment and offer BIOS recovery as a service.
