    After doing a bios update from windows, my laptop no longer finds any bootable devices including DVD and USB, although the bios will come up with F2 and the HDD is recognized there. I want to reinstall the bios using the FN/ESC trick, but cannot find any bios files other than the .exe from the Gateway website. Any ideas?

    Thank you,
    Steven Busch
