    Hi Serg008,

    thank you for your quick reply. Good news is that I was able to flash the BIOS, the bad news is that the screen stays blank and I'm still not able to boot once I insert the new WLAN-card (Intel Centrino Advanced N 6230).

    Is there anythink you can do for me? Do you need further information?

    Thank you!

    Strange...it's confirmed mod.

    SecureBoot is Disabled into the BIOS?
    Without of new WLAN card your PC boots to Windows ?

    Hi Serge,

    there is no SecureBoot-Option in BIOS. I use UEFI and run a dualboot-system with Windows and Linux Mint. After flashing the file
    8R_WL_SL.FL1 (24.02.2013 19:52, 2.308KB) and restarting and loading BIOS-defaults, the machine boots without and with the original Realtek 8188CE-WLAN-card but still not with the new Intel N-6230-WLAN-card.

    Any ideas?
