    I just ordered a G1s-A1 and I am going to have the HDD upgraded to the 7200rpm 3kb/s momentus..

    I keep reading about posts about the Bios needing updating, problems, etc..

    Can someone explain exactly what version of the BIOS is the most current, and what I should expect ?
    Thanks - R

    The BIOS issue involves more than the Direct Media Buttons it was intended to fix? I gather it has to do with power consumption also or am I being dense? LOL. That is a great thread, BTW.
    Has it been established the Bios 203 will resolve stuttering frame rate, too?

    I am going to play around with Vista and really didn't order this system for gaming right away. Hoping in another 4-6 months M$ get a SP together for us.

    Thanks for responding, E.B.E - appreciate it!
