TOSHIBA SATELLITE 2595CDS

CHANGE HISTORY

Version 7.10 ?09-30-1999

• Initial Production BIOS for Satellite 2590/2595

CHANGE HISTORY

Version 8.00 ?02-08-2000

• A change was made to support Windows 2000.
• Corrected a problem when running Windows 2000. If VGA segment address was set to E4000h, a blue screen error would occur.
• Corrected a problem while running the HCT test. In the ACPI test, the CPU Throttle subtest would result in a false error.
• When copying a file from a 120MB FDD, using a Super Disk (LS-120), while running Windows 95/98, and then attempting to open that file under DOS mode, caused files, in excess of 50MB, to be corrupted.
• Corrected a problem where having the "USB Legecy=Enabled" set in the BIOS, and entering the "Pause" key several times caused the key to repeat on it's own.
• Corrected a problem when the Power ON/OFF was set to Enable, and system goes into Hibernation with the LCD panel closed. If an AC Adaptor was connected after opening the display panel, the computer would "wake up" on it's own.
• Corrected a problem of installing a driver from the FDD. Installing a driver was impossible when a new device was detected during Windows 98 installation.
• Corrected a problem of the computer hanging at the Toshiba Logo during boot up.
• Corrected a problem using the Chicony USB keyboard. When attempting to close Windows 98, and choosing DOS Mode reboot, typing on the keyboard was impossible.

This release adds support for unattended installation to the downloadable package when executed with the /auto switch.

Requires either a bootable diskette drive (FDD), or bootable CD-ROM (CD-RW, DVD-ROM/RW). If no FDD is available, requires access to CD authoring (burning) software and hardware.

Build 60303 fixes an issue where Satellite 5205-S705 units were programmed with the incorrect DMI model string.

This DOS program displays and allows you to set the CMOS/BIOS settings of your Toshiba portable computer. This program does not run in a DOS session under Windows. From Windows, you'll need to restart in MS-DOS mode in order to use this utility.

You can also access the BIOS/CMOS setup screen without having to use TSETUP by holding down the [Esc] key when you first power-on the system.

Version 1.0.0 contained code which controlled portions of the display adapter as well as the display panel. This version (1.1.0) controls only the display panel.
