    I updated my bios to the latest available 306 bios from asus site. Flashing went succesfully. The computer rebooted and everything worked fine. Then, I went to the the setup configuration and configured it according to my choice but forgot to load optimized defaults :wallbash:. Saved everything and then the laptop rebooted and was stuck at a blank screen. Nothing was displayed. Please tell me how to recover my bios!

    Yes but I did not enable it the 1st time. I just forgot to f9 load optimized defaults as recommended by asus but now laptop is as useful as a brick.

    Just plug out the HDD & battery, then start the lappy using power cable. Go to bios setup & load optimized default. Then plug hdd & battery again.
