Whoa, where on earth did you find this gem?
EDIT: Never mind, located here, under Aspire 6920G BIOS.
Well, since there's no release notes attached to it, and I'm no good at reading hex, I haven't got a clue.
BUT considering it's a public release, and roughly 1 year or so after the 6920G's debut...might it be a BIOS to crank up the fan speed and keep our GeForce 9500M GSs from going kablooey? (just thinking here)
We need those release notes before we do anything shtupid. -
Pardon the double-post, but I also found this little gem to help anyone on 64-bit Vista who wants to pull the BIOS update (WinPhlash is still 32-bit only):

So, have you updated it?
I has been updated it but I see no difference.
Anyone have the changes log? -
Nope - BIOS updates are one of those things I don't do if I need my laptop for school.
And I do.
Maybe when my current spate of group projects and midterms pass. -
I am studying as well.
Actually, when BIOSing, I afraid too. Luckily, it successes. -
Business.
Actually DarkSilver, you can test to see if the ACPI thermal tables have finally been straightened out (contrary to my original post, version 1.10 DIDN'T permanently fix things - I'm still undervolting and switching throttling on/off).
Go run ORTHOS for a while, and see if the thermal throttling kicks in, and at what temperatures. -
What if we disable throttling(lock throttle setting) completely?
So, it won't go throttle by itself when we're playing games? -
...and what happened to 1.11,1.12,1.13. were they so bad that they were not released? strange that these things just appear with no release notes. anyonr from acer here?
-
Don't have release note was a pain.
Somehow the public BIOS version for 6920G are 1.10 and 1.14 only.
Last time, I saw 1.06 and so on in the acer D/L site. Now, left 1.10 and 1.14.
However, I think it is safe to update it. Because I updated it successfully. -
1.06 and 1.07 are still on the now-deprecated Acer Euro FTP.
-
So, any news on what it does?
-
Not a bloody clue.
-
*bump* Stupid Acer, releasing a BIOS without any release notes... I'm curious as to what changes have been implemented. I guess I'll just leave it for now, since everything is working fine w/ 1.10..
-
It brings nothing new=.=! I can't sense the changes.
THROTTLING is still available. LOL. -
Any news on this one? And check this out, my bios version:
Damn you acer. So I guess theres no point in updating bios if the throttling is still there? -
They came as stock BIOS. Hell yeah! There's indeed no point updating it. -
So, besides the rmclock fix there isnt any other?
-
Unless you are really PRO in computer stuffs, then you would able to change BIOS and some hardware to fix this throttling problem.
