    Hi,

    I was looking for some bios updates which would allow me to change certain things, especially eist so i can freely go for dual ida. I found one bios version which allows to change eist from bios level. My question is if my lap fail to start after updating to that bios is there a possibility that i could recover it with
    'insyde bios recovery' or something like that cuz i cant really afford NOT having laptop atm.

    Sorry for sounding stupid, but maybe you should ask at that other forum (too).

    Other than that, I cannot help you, but say: if you cannot afford to brick your laptop, just don't do it just yet (the flashing, not the bricking, hehe)

    Good luck!
