    When I try to install new bios through the file "R0092N0.exe" I receive the message:
    "Cannot read the sytem information."
    and the process is aborted.

    If extract the files in "R0092N0.exe", execute the "WBFLASH.exe" and choose the file bios "R0092N0.WPH", then click in "Flah BIOS", click "OK" in the following message(alert about the process of flashing bios) and later I receive the following message:
    "Part ID of System BIOS and new Image File are different (system = , file = VAION).
    The System Platform may be different from the Image File. Are you sure you want to proceed?"
    if I click in "Yes" I receive another message:
    "BIOS update failed! Image file (... path)\R0092N0.WPH is either not valid or is damaged.
    BIOS image verification failed.
    Error code: -149 "
    and the process is aborted.

    I execute the programs with max of permitions, I tried to make the process in "Windows XP Pro" and in the "Windos Vista Utimate" the result is always the same.
