    Hi,
    Can anyone with the original 5920G VBIOS (8600M GT 256MB DDR2) send it to me?

    Here is why I need it -
    http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=247755

    I actually have an "original" BIOS dump, but I am not sure if it is really the original, as I didn't know what I was doing when I did my BIOS overclock.

    Actually, just the md5sum of the file would be fine.

    Many thanks

    I don't think bios flash is the problem.Try to reinstall the drivers first.BTW you can read my VGA BIOS Flash guide(@ signature) & PM your e-mail add to send original 8600M GT bios. :cool:

    Me neither, but I have tried everything else that I can think of, including trying a dozen driver versions (including two versions released by acer), on two different OSes.

    That is what I followed to flash my vbios =) Many thanks for the wonderful guide!

    PM sent, thanks!
