OMG BusyKid That took like 25 min and you did it. Thank you very much. I've got to say this forum is awesome. I only discovered this forum less than a week ago and already you have helped me twice. I wouldnt mind donating some cash for you guys
That is kind of you but you will need to see ZORT about a monetary donation...to be honest, I am not sure how they handle such requests. The important thing is, Were you able to flash the bios and activate windows vista?

Well, I created Boot USB drive, "rar"-ed 3 files (autoexec.bat, flashspi.exe and G31.fc) into rar-file and then extracted to USB drive, started PC from USB drive and got the messages Gigabyte SPI Flash Bios Update utility v1.32 !!!BIOS ID Mismatch, Unable to Proceed BIOS Programming!!! So thats the situtation right now. I have to go away now for few hours, I'll be back in 8PM GMT time if you want to specify anything. I tell you again what I get on my BIOS screen when PC starts: Award Modular BIOS v6.00PC G31M-ES2L F5 And it is a Gigabyte Mobo: G31M-ES2L Hope that helps
There is no generic bios of which I am aware.....And I have clue if Sony has a lock system that prevents updating a bios....you will need to consult Sony on that problem yourself. I can redo the bios with a different SLIC but that is about all.
---------------------- Hi Busykid508, My laptop model is from Asia, and their support takes too long and I haven't recived any message from them in 4 days. YES, please could you redo the bios with a different SLIC for me? What do I need to send to you. I have the original bios from them. its R0083N0.WPH. I tried to uplink from the forum but its too big. Please let me know. Many thanks,
Please send me the bios file and the motherboard maufacturer name and model number of your motherboard as well as the link to download the bios.
