    Hello all, This is my first post here, glad to meet you all. :)

    Okay, I have a question. Does anyone know how modify my F8S vbios (radeon x2400 256mb) to accept the ASUS F8SN's 9500m MXM video card?

    I have tried to force flash the bios with a F8SN bios file, but all the ASUS bios utilities seem to lack a force switch, I have tried easyflash(in the bios), AFUDOS, and winflash, only winflash had a -force switch that I could find, but it doesnt work. it just reboots the laptop without flashing the bios. all the other bios utilities say incorrect file name, or bios checksum error, and they wont flash. :(

    Any help is appreciated. Thanks
