I had a short look at the dump, it looks strange. Have you made it from W7 or xp? Anyway at the moment I don't have an idea...maybe you could try the dump again from xp..... The second mod, didn't flash, telling wrong bios? I guess it's something about the flash procedure. What about to flash the second one after your original? Anyway I don't want to brick your Sony before you go on holiday.... Enjoy your time....you may post here again when you are back.... Btw: Are you going by Motorrad to somewhere?
