    Seeing that many people along the threads have a difficult time when attempting to flash different BIOS versions to their Sony S series --especially when they want to revert back to an older version after installing a newer one-- I've decided to share this "Multi BIOS flasher" that allows just any compatible BIOS to be flashed, whether official, hacked, older or newer.

    The "tool" is nothing more than the classic BIOS tool that you're accustomed to, only that I tweaked a couple of settings so it doesn't act like a cop, deciding which version you're allowed to flash and which version you're not.

    For convenience, I've included 6 popular BIOS versions in the pack, but you're free to get rid of 'em and/or add your own versions, now or in the future.

    Just read the instructions before using and you'll be safe.
