    I've a new M72R, Clevo release a new bios to solve the wlan bugs, the bios come with the PHLASH utility, but when I boot the pc in dos the software give an error regarding the presence of HIMEM.
    Can you tell me where I can download the file or .iso to create a boot cd-rom without the HIMEM?

    Thanks a lot
    Andrea

    i also have a clevo m72r-p sold as dimotion babybook by ditech.at

    i am using kubuntu hardy 8.04 and everything works fine but the system is freezing every minute or so for some seconds. i think that this is some interrupt problem, my bios version is 1.002. i was wondering if a bios update would change that.

    but: how do you flash your bios? haaving a laptop withot a floppy disk requiring you to flash the bios from within dos??

    i have no clue how to do that? any advises

    greets

    There seems to be a newer BIOS update (v1.00.12) for the M720R.
    Could anybody post a download link for it like for the v1.00.07 because I can't get it from my retailer here in Greece?

    Kind regards

    Have you tried to contact your vendor, they should be able to email you the latest BIOS.

    I'm looking for a BIOS update for M720S/M721S (Sager NP7250). I was trying to download this one but the link is now broken. Sadly, Clevo isn't replying to my BIOS request emails. Can you help me find alternative links? Thanks
