Blade 14 (2014) Bios

Hey there;

Well, I've always wondered if there have been BIOS updates from Razer, and since there is nothing in their website the only thing I knew is that "A4" appeared in the lower right corner of my Blade's screen when booting.

Today I was fiddling with the BIOS settings to boot from a USB drive, and suddenly I notice that "B4" came up in the lower right corner of the screen. Which got me wondering if anyone knows what these codes actually mean.

 

That code must be a "state code" or something. It's usually A2 during normal boot. I keep forgetting to watch it when I cold boot.

I have version 2.24. I know there's a 2.27 version out there. Razer doesn't provide updates on their site (unlike every other laptop vendor I might add). I think the reasoning is they don't want people flashing it unless they are actively trying to solve an issue.

One thing I wish they would do is put a changelog up of what has been changed between the different versions that exist. I currently am not having any issues that I suspect a BIOS update would fix, so not sure I care really. It's more my OCD about always updating drivers, firmware, router firmware, NAS secrity updates etc.. I check almost daily. It's the sys/net admin in me I think.

 

I would LOVE a bios update to toggle the fn key.
