    Hi

    I have a problem with my Vaio VGN-CS390J (Insyde H2O bios)...I asked for a modified bios to enable hidden menus of my laptop in the proper section of the forum; a user gave me a link for the modded bios and necessary program to update it but i think something went wrong.
    I run InsydeFlash and the hit Start button;seems everything was fine but after flashing completed the program quit himself and didn't reboot my laptop (i waited a couple of minutes) so i manually did it;but after reboot operating system won't ever boot up(says that some changes were made in hardware or software and i can't even load windows recovery procedure),i can still enter bios but nothig is changed(same menu).I tried to make a fresh install of windows but i get an error "bios in not ACPI compliant...";I can boot the laptop in dos with a bootable usb key but if try to flash the bios with flas**t.exe i always get the error "FADT not foud".I also tried to enable bios recovery procedure but all the common keys combinations doesn't work.Is there something else i can try to restore my bios?
    Hope someone could help me
    Thanks

    Code:
    1. Rename the original bios file N43JFAS.210 to N43JF.bin.
    2. Copy the file to usb flash stick. DO NOT MAKE anything etc. ONLY COPY
    3. Remove battery, adapter (power cord) , mouse etc. (not use the battery to recovery)
    4. Attach usb flash stick (try with the lower left slot at first)
    5. Hold down <CTRL> + <Home>
    6. Plug In the Ac Power adapter, wait about 3-5 secs
    7. Press the power button
    8. wait 3-5 sec and now release the buttons <CTRL> and <Home>.
    9. The screen of the built-in BIOS flash utility appears and the BIOS is restored.
    It took about 2-3 minutes and notebook powered down itself.......
    
    Then plug in the battery simply power it on.
    That’s all. 
    if still under warranty, take it to the center :(
