    Hi guys,

    I was just wondering if it is possible to update my Z540C's bios (current version: R2168M3) to R4041M3 without any problems?

    My concern is there might be some hardware issues that might compromise the performance of the laptop given the fact that my model is an older one.

    Thanks a lot!
