    Hello everybody!

    My notebook Sager Np8660 have a big problem after trying update Bios. The screen is black and black...I tried to turn on the laptop several time but the result is still same. Maybe the problem is the fail of Bios.
    Please, someone give me some advice and the way to solve this problem.

    There is no saving it if the instructions posted in the other thread didn't help you; call Xotic and find out what they'll do about it.

    Any way you can try to blind flash again? If you have your laptop to boot usb first may be you can ask a few fellow friends (if you don't remember) here to give you the exact steps in dos and flash it blindly. It may sound risky but who knows, it may work.

    Even after the post of individuals losing their laptops to the BIOS update, people still try long and hard to do it. You, sir, are a brave soul.

    There is a tutorial posted somewhere on this forum that covers if you messed up the BIOS update and how to assist you in recovering it.
