    Does anyone have a link to the official Asus G1SN 204 Bios?

    I have searched the forums and elsewhere but cannot find official ones. I only found modded or unreliable ones.

    Are you sure there's a 204 BIOS for the G1Sn? I can't find it anywhere for ya.

    I am not so sure but my current Bios is 202 and I am in the process of upgrading (yes upgrading) from Vista to Windows XP and I am pretty sure I need a more updated Bios than 202.


    However, I do have the Sata drivers slip streamed so maybe I don't need anything.

    I did run Liveupdate while Vista was still installed but that did not update anything so maybe I don't need it?

    By the way, my first try at installing XP SP2 was not successful because I could not get ATK100 to install and since so many other programs relied on this I lost a lot of functionality so if anyone has any ideas about how to solve this, please let me know.

    I heard about an updated ATK100 but have not found anything that works.

    Thanks! I have had more success this time around. It seems like the order of drivers and software you install can make or break the entire XP system.

    EDIT:

    I assumed that all recent Laptops would handle SDHC fine but surprisingly my G1SN would not read any of them (I have a nice 32GB SDHC).

    However after trying out the driver download from the ''A8jm SDHC SD support'' thread it seems to work fine.

    (Can't post links yet).
