    I can't install the new 6625 BIOS. I follow the instructions on ftp.zepto.dk and boot from the CD, where I've burned the .iso file, but I get the message "No OS found" and then just boots from the HDD into VISTA without installing new BIOS.

    Any help ?

    You need to burn the iso-file as an image. Not make a data CD with the iso-file on it.

    heyy

    Use a burning application like Nero or IMGBurn.

    If you use Nero, try clicking on the Burn Image option

    If you use IMGBurn, it will let you choose the image (the .iso) to burn.

    By far the easiest way I know to get at the Zepto FTP files is to use Total Commander then, under the Net menu, FTP New Connection, enter ftp://ftp.zepto.dk/ and you will see everything on the Zepto FTP server. You can then copy whole folders to your local hard disk and it is easy to look at the dates and see if there is anything new.

    I see that 6625_z15N008.iso is dated 27 August. There's also a PDF file with instructions in the same folder.
