I see two possibilities 1- Using http://flashrom.org (I haven't tried it) 2- Install Windows as you described, temporarily If you are succesful with #1, please do report back here. #2 AFAIK is a valid exception (ethically) for me, specially in this context. Make sure you wipe such an install and don't keep using it illegally (if you don't activate it, etc.). Best of luck, F. -- Fabián Rodríguez http://trisquel.magicfab.ca
