I've flashed my bios to 1.18 but now my computer wont fully boot. when it gets to the windows bootscreen, the green bar doesnt even move, then a bluee screen appears and then it reboots. Did i brick it? is there any way to recover?
I very need to change the following settings in the BIOS: Execute Disable Function - ENABLE ACPI 2 Support - Yes and Speed step - Disable Help me. Pleeeeeease!!!
Please do not use 1.19, it's beta bios with bugs (unstability problems on resume on xp system, VT working very slow).
Keep in mind that the Compal firmware require a specific way of flashing. With so many posted instructions on how to do it, it's easy to forget which one is the one that worked. Heck, even I forgot! Currently running the latest (1.18) with SLIC 2.0. So I guess what I'm saying is, it may not be a non-working modded BIOS. It could just be the flashing method.
Yen, I´ve a no go... black screen with your procedure. I´ve to use recovery method to bring the laptop alive. Still use slic2.0 Can you help?? thx
Between Lordviking and Yen, I'm thankful that there's still activity with the Compal IFL90 firmware. I know it isn't a real popular laptop! Thanks, you two! PS: My Compal is at home, so I'll have to wait until I get back to try.
