READ CAREFULLY!!!! If you are going to flash your BIOS do it from DOS as Espionage said because I have seem many a failed attempt from customers trying to flash their BIOS from inside windows and unfortuantly it isn't something that can be fixed unless you have a Dual-BIOS or BIOS which supports Crysis Disks, but in all reality you shouldn't really need to flash your BIOS if you clean out your lappy, you see your computer has sensors all over the motherboard that detect what temperature's all your components are getting up too, and if your PC see's it is getting to hot it will vamp up Fan speed dramatically to try and cool your machine. So if there is dust inside your laptop then this dust will do multiple things to cause you grief including insulating parts like your CPU and GPU, blocking airflow inside your laptop, clogging up fans making it more difficult to turn consistently which means more power has to be pumped to it to keep it turning etc.
So if you strip down your laptop and clean the dust all out you should immediatly notice ambient and CPU/GPU temperature go down, and if you have it in handy you may want to put some fresh thermal paste on the CPU and GPU (once you cleaned the old dry stuff off of-course) trust me when I say that at work I have seen computer running with a ambient temperature of 70+ degrees celsius go down to 40+ just by cleaning out the Fans and components and removing all the floating and built up dust deposits, and also the cooler a computer runs the better it will perform and unfourtuantly no BIOS update is going to magically purge all the dust from your system lol. Give it a try and get back to us if you need help, trust me you will always want to leave the BIOS update as a last resort because you can brick your machine by accident if even the smallest thing goes wrong.

So my suggestion is to flash from dos if at all possible first. I flash from windows all the time and had no bad experiences, however I heard people BSOD'ing during the process, and having bricks On Thu, Feb 25, 2010 at 4:37 PM, hussam aulaian <[email protected]> wrote: > guys guys guys guys ... -- Espionage724 Has A Signature... -- INTEL 9xx SOLDIERS SANS FRONTIERS -- INTEL 9xx SOLDIERS SANS FRONTIERS
