    Hi Guys,

    Can anyone help me out, I have a CF-19 MK1 with a custom bios. This bios can not be updated or downgraded by the Panasonic Bios tools. I know it's a Phoenix bios.

    Current Version : 1.00-L13M14

    I was trying to get it to 1.01-L13 so that I can use the Panasonic Bios update tool and get it to version V1.01L16.

    link to the Bios updates

    Main download page (please add the h back to the url)
    ttp://pc-dl.panasonic.co.jp/dl/search?q=&button=&dc%5B%5D=002003&p1=111&p2=1110014&oc=&lang=

    Bios update V1.01L16 (please add the h back to the url)
    ttp://pc-dl.panasonic.co.jp/dl/docs/011542?dc%5B%5D=002003&no=2&p1=111&p2=1110014&score=1.0&sri=6588726&trn_org=2


    Downgrade Bios ( 1.01-L13 and 1.00-L13 i think)

    (please add the h back to the url)
    ttp://pc-dl.panasonic.co.jp/itn/support/vistainfo6_19cde.html

    So my main goal is to update to V1.01L16, what tools can I use to force the update (Phoenix bios)? Or can I force the Panasonic tools to update?

    I hope someone can help, :worthy:


    Thanks

    ok, it's a special phlash version which has a /force switch, but don't ;););) flash a modified rom without a RW-report on phoenix,
    or you'll have to take the long and winding road of phoenix recovery ...

    Are you flashing from pure Dos because you need to i,e, use a bootable usb pendrive
