    confirm fails! (see notes below)

    using usb dos boot disk as per your v handy link also, thank you VERY much :)

    i had problems with it refusing to flash:

    however, the readme says:
    2. Run MeSet.EXE under pure DOS, the system will auto cold boot.

    which i did run, then it flashed no problem (it auto powered off after flashing, bit scary)
    other solutions to this seems to be a jumper on the motherboard to allow bios access (seems to be for desktop motherboards really though)

    activated using: HPQOEM-2FE5FA14.XRM-MS

    Sorry, I dont know where I should post this: does anyone have the original bios file for the Lenovo G500? or is there a tool I can use or some other way to revert back to the old original bios?

    thanks.
