calguyhunk Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 These days, you can update from within Windows. .rom, .bak whatever. Download and run the aforementioned Afudos utility, click "Update from file" and select the .rom file from the popup screen. Just make sure your power is stable if you don't wanna brick your board. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcs18 Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 If there is a power outage and the laptop changes to run in battery, mode will it cause any damage when updating the BIOSNo. Can i update the BIOS using a fully charged battery?Before beginning the BIOS update, if the attempt is made using just the fully charged battery (without power switched on,) the system recognizes the same and refuses to start the BIOS update - the User is warned with an error window to switch on the power.

Can i update the BIOS using a fully charged battery?Before beginning the BIOS update, if the attempt is made using just the fully charged battery (without power switched on,) the system recognizes the same and refuses to start the BIOS update - the User is warned with an error window to switch on the power.
