    I want to update my BIOS because I've been having issues ever since I updated my RAM and HDD. Can anyone help me find the download locations of the latest BIOS? It's been 2 weeks and I havent received a reply from Clevo.

    Clevo M720S/M721S (Sager NP7250)


    Thanks!

    The update was successful but I when im inside Vista the laptop started beeping. I constantly hear a beeping sound with the capslock & numlock LEDs constantly flashing. Then it disappears and appears again. Everything seems to be okay but I don't know what is wrong.

    The beeping sound have now disappeared. I just removed the battery for a few seconds and rebooted again. Everything is now up & running. The issues that I've been having with my HDD are now gone. Although I can't say the same for my Memory problems.

    I was hoping that the new BIOS can be able to do Memory Remapping so that the BIOS can detect all 4096 of my installed RAM. Unfortunately even with the updated BIOS it is still being detected at only 2812 (excluding the 256MB for video). Because even though im running a 32bit machine the BIOS should display all 4096 right? Do you have any insights about this?

    Btw, thanks again for the links! :)

    Hi There, Do you have a Service manual for Clevo M72xS (Sager NP7250)? I've ordered a new Intel T7600 processor for an upgrade. It will really help me with the upgrading procedure. Thanks
