    Totally crap!

    Try to send it to the service,is it under warranty?

    Try to search for the bios file in packard bell's site.Also,there should be a explanation for recovering bios in user manual.

    Note:There is a bios file for every packard Bell GX model in Packard Bell's site.

    Go to support,then download,select your model.

    When that happened, there weren't. Only for GX's with Geforce 9800, not for GTX260M. But now there is, new version came.

    Went to service and they did recovery flash...
