    Hi just after a little help.i@ve just done a clean install and have followed the driver install order list from this thread http://forum.notebookreview.com/thr...september-2010-incl-vbios-flash-guide.520251/
    Im now up to this stage AMD Mobility Radeon HD5870 - 13B96101.104, A01 (VBIOS Flash, see additional Info)
    however when trying to burn to a bootable cd it always fails even after buying some fresh disks today.I have also tried the usb flash drive but no matter what guides i follow i get this usb device is not compatible..
    Is there any advice out there or another vbios i could try?
