    Can anyone please help me with this notebook ?

    We have a Clevo M37EW (equiv Sager 3790) which has a slightly scrambled Bios ..
    The Bios is an Insyde (ver 1.01 rev 2.08) ..
    We have been given, both by the Clevo agent here in Australia and esupport.com, the file M37EW208.BIN but, unfortunately this cannot be installed as the flash files that come with this give a "Invalid Flash ID : AA55H" message everytime we try to install ..

    Just as an aside : We have been impressed by zfactor's USB boot disk article ..
    Unfortunately, we can't use this feature to start the Clevo as there is no option in the existing Bios for USB boot-up ..
