    Hello :)

    After a long reading in various topics about the Z1 series BIOS hacking i decided to give it a try. I was trying this tutorial "http://forum.notebookreview.com/sony/473226-insyde-hacking-new-vaio-z-advanced-menu-bios-44.html#post7932873" and then i noticed that with the DOS that is used in this tutorial that after 1 keystroke, my Vaio hangs and becomes unresponsive. So it is impossible for me to replace the BIOS with a hacked one.

    Has anyone encountered here the same problem? Or does someone have an idea how to fix this? Because i need to upgrade my Nvidia drivers for some apps i am using.
