    My laptop is HP Pavillion dv5-1125nr:

    • AMD Turion™ X2 dual-core mobile processor RM-72 2.1GHz
    • 4GB DDR2 memory • DL DVD±RW/CD-RW drive
    • LightScribe labeling • 15.4" display
    • 250GB hard drive • built-in webcam
    • Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit with SP1
    ...

    When I use Windows Vista Home Premium 64 bit, I upgraged BIOS to F.20. Now, I want to downgrade to F.11 (for Windows XP), but I can not find this version.
    Please help me. Thanks very much !

    I search on Google, and someone said that latest versions of BIOS are more compatible with VISTA. Another way, my original version is F.11.
