    Hi Serg008,

    sorry for being late and that i'm missed the nesseary ATK installation.

    I've installed ATK and WinFlash, started Winflash via cmd and /NODATE parameter but now I'm stuck again.
    From my view WinFlash doesn't recognise your modified BIOS.
    I've cross checked with a orgin Bios file, which was recognised fine and also the flash button was enabled.

    (have a look at the screens)

    This bios has been confirmed as "Working" many times
    -flash the official (non modified) BIOS, reboot, enter the BIOS and load the Optimal default setting,
    -flash the modified BIOS from pure DOS, enter into the BIOS, load the Optimal default settings and check the storage adapters and memory settings

    try the recovery flash method:
    - copy modified bios (VRL50.bin) on the FAT formatted USB stick.
    - Turn Off the laptop. Disconnect the power cable and take out the Battery.
    - Insert USB stick to laptop (first try the right side's USB ports).
    - Hold down "Ctrl"+"Home", insert power cable, wait few secs, turn laptop on.
    (after locating the BIOS binary image, the system will enter the BIOS Recovery page.
    You should get a screen infrorming You: 'erasing flash rom, rewriting...'
    - Computer will shutdown after few mins. reinsert power cable, battery
