hi
I am aware that lots of threads have been posted regarding this issue but I wanted to revive it, hopefully new methods or solutions are available
I have updated my BIOS from 1.09 to 1.16 under windows 7 64bit. everything went well, update completed then computer restarted. THEN DID NOT BOOT SINCE.
I tried dissambling and removing CMOS battery then putting it back.
Tried many Crisis Disk with 1.16 BIOS.WPH and 1.28 nothing
I am using a Sandisk Cruzer 2gb with no luck. I tried 32gb and 4gb as well. nothing
The problem is that when I try FN+ESC and Power up. the usb key doesnt blink as when it reads normally.
PLEASE HELP

yes i removed the U3 partition. still nothing.
i used a lexar 32 gb as well.
i am lost. some people talk about renaming the bios file to .fd but for my model it's a .wph
moreover i dont know whether i should rename the wph file to bios or another acceptable name -
Maybe you disconnect HDD and CDrom when booting. -

I'm having the same problem with my VN7-591G - I can get it to boot into recovery mode using Fn + Esc, but it never fully reads the USB disk - only initially do I see some USB activity. It *might* be because the USB I'm using is 4 GB, but I don't (yet) have access to smaller...
