Hi All!

Hope Santa brought you all your worldly desires?

I have a Toshiba Satellite 2100CDS laptop. (Santa didn’t bring it.) I was l was playing around with SiSandra, who told me that I could upgrade and flash the BIOS. Current BIOS is version 7.10. Went to the Toshiba-Europe site and got hold of a BIOS upgrade (7.40) for ‘all’ 2100 models.

Have unzipped it, but now what? When I hit the *.exe file, I’m told that it doesn’t work under V86 mode. What does this mean? The *.sys file tells me that I don’t have enough memory. I have the max. that the computer can take, i.e. 160Mb. No readme files. How do I ‘flash’ or ‘shadow’ my BIOS and what exactly do those two words mean?

Thanks for any help.

Happy New Year to ya’ll.
