    Hey Guys,

    So just looking over a download for the new 1.17 BIOS download for the HL90 and wondering if anyone had any idea what exactly is supposed to be new?

    Thanks guys.

    Nothing new. I installed it and the only change I saw was a different BIOS boot screen.

    Would you guys let me know where you're getting JHL90 downloads from because the link I've got to the Compal website gives an unobtainable page?

    Hey barry,

    Start here: Welcome to Compal Driver Download Site!
    Click 'Download Site'
    Click 'Bios'
    Click 'JHL90'
    This should bring up the JHL90 window
    In the window click 'BIOS'
    And there is the 1.17 Bios for you.

    @Cubic_X Ok thanks for the info. I might just flash to see the pretty new boot screen :p But if there aren't any performance gains then what a waste!
