    Just some heads up about the 1.00.13 version.

    Flashed it and everything went ok. Over all updates since the 1.00.02 version, this is the first SBIOS update that I noticed some changes on the performance.

    I don't know if it's a placebo effect(didn't made any sintetic benchmarks), but the system appears snapier overall. It's quieter too, considering that I had already the KB/EC Firm. 1.00.11Sa with the 1.00.12SL SBIOS.

    I recomend it to anyone with this model. ;)

    Thanks again Renovatio for the efforts on getting the file. ;)

    It's the newer known for this model...

    The 1.00.12 SBIOS came out officially from Clevo on Jan 2009, this one Feb 2009.

    Because Clevo disabled the public access to their BIOS/Firmware online database around revision 12 release dates, we didn't know the existence of the revision 13.

    finsihed re-furbishing my 5793.

    new lcd cover is from a M570 (silver) seems more solid than the stock black metal finish that dents very easily, I have a OBHD from newmode us with a 250gb sata drive installed got a free white bracket so I could use the original dvdrw bezel, an extra card reader for xD camera cards (express card 34/54), a new screen LP171WE3 TL-A5 matte 1680x1050, a white lite-on usb dvd-rw eTAU108 and a customised cpu cooler from killer notebooks I found on ebay.

    :) Just need to get some extra ram and another zalman cooler and I'll be set. I installed the new bios and it's working fine, not sure I've noticed any speed increase like that was mentioned.

    played a few games, on second thoughts the new bios does seem to makes things a bit quicker.

    I'm using Sager NP5793 and under BIOS 1.00.8SL, but it gave me error "PLATFORM SIGNATURE NOT FOUND IN THE INTERFACE", anyone can help me with this error?

    I succeed in upgrading the EC/KBC to 11SA but not the BIOS..
