    New BIOS update for DV2 on driver page.

    "Enhancements: Updates the Computrace OPROM to support the next generation of Microsoft Windows Operating Systems."

    What does that mean? I'm already running Win7 on my DV2. Should I update my system with this new BIOS. Will make any difference?

    Thanks.

    Perhaps SLIC table was updated from 2.0 to 2.1? :) Cannot be said for certain until someone checks this before and after update.

    So, if it's just a SLIC update, it only applies to those that are getting Win7 from/through HP, right?
