About BIOS Update Utility:
Applying a new BIOS version can bring various fixes, add new features, or improve existing ones; however, this action is very risky and should be carefully carried out in a steady power environment (such as the one ensured by a UPS unit), and only when it is really needed. Moreover, it is recommended that the BIOS be upgraded by someone who has the ability to use advanced system features. It can also be fulfilled by a regular user as well, but at their own risk. The Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) is a highly important piece of software that loads the currently installed operating system and tests all hardware components – so make sure you flash it correctly. When it comes to changing the BIOS version, the update utility searches for a compatible package in any given location or on the web and, if found, it will automatically install the desired build, if and when your approval is given. Do take into account that failing to perform the installation could seriously damage your system, and the faulty BIOS might even render it unusable. Therefore, if you intend to upgrade your BIOS, hit the download button, get and install the package, and run the utility to check if a newer version is available. Don’t forget to check with our website as often as possible to be up to date with the latest releases.

It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available. Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
After making major changes to a Panasonic Toughbook, check for new Basic Input Output System (BIOS) updates. When you change the operating system or even install new hardware such as a larger hard drive, the system may not work as well as it used to or you may encounter error messages. To prevent this, update the BIOS, which is the software your motherboard uses as the liaison between the operating system and hardware. Panasonic provides free BIOS updates for their Toughbook line of computers.
Step 1
Back up any personal or important files from the Toughbook. This is a precaution in the event the BIOS update does not complete successfully. This is rare, but backing up prevents loss of data should anything go wrong.
Step 2
Connect the Toughbook to its AC adapter. You must have it connected to a power source to update the BIOS.
Step 3
Visit Panasonic's Toughbook Downloads site (see Resources).

Tip
You do not need to update the BIOS more than once every one to two years unless you notice system problems that no other solution will fix. Panasonic only releases BIOS updates as needed when problems are noticed or reported.
Warning
Never use a BIOS update that is not specific to the Toughbook model. This will corrupt the system.
