    Any of you successfully update the BIOS to the 205?

    because me and my friend both failed on doing so

    so both of our laptop is dead now, and we found it hard to believe that it is our fault because we've been doing lots of BIOS update on our previous PC/Laptop and we never had a problem

    so it's either the BIOS is f**ked up or we just had one hell of a super bad coincident that both of us failed at the BIOS update

    oh and we used the EasyFlash as usual

    Did you try to flash from the internal hdds with EasyFlash? Flashing from NTFS with the BIOS tool is a good way to brick. Next time, use a USB stick that's FAT32. Sorry about your bricking. Please call for an RMA to get it restored.
