    Hi there - Bought the subject laptop in a charity auction. Apparently the unit was bricked after BIOS upgrade. Is there a DIY guide for reflashing the BIOS or sending it to ASUS for repair is the only option?

    Many thanks in advance

    Send it to an electronics repair shop, get them to remove the bios chip and manually flash it.
