    Hello all I have the P775TM from PCSpecialists but wanted to know has anyone updated using original Clevo style note or eurocom BIOS ?

    Reason for this is I don't particularly like the PCSpecialists BIOS .


    Regards Damin

    So long as it's for exactly the same model it will work.

    Any flash can potentially brick a machine so there is always a warning attached to doing it.

    I had 775tm from PC SPECIALIST and confirm, that XMG bios flashing works on that laptop, no issues.

    It's the same base machine so long as you go model for model.

    I assume you are running stock? Temps do look good even considering it's gaming.
