Is it possible return to an old bios version?

I'm wondering if is that possible.. 'cause if something goes wrong... we can go back..
sorry if i'm stupid!!!   

Wonkanoby knows what he is talking about and you should be happy to have his opinion.  (Omigod - he has 30,000 posts!  I would rather have his opinion than 30,000 of mine.  Believe me, Global Moderator means he knows something.     If he gave bad advise they would have shut him down a long time ago!)  You can flash to older versions if you want to and if you examine threads in this index you will see that people do it all the time.  Just flash correctly.

  • How flash to old bios version (GT780)?

    How can I flash my bios of the GT780 notebook to the previous version of the bios? Currently, the most recent version is installed: 1761_10E.zip
    I might wonder why I would like to do this: I have some problems with my laptop (see other posts) and I'm not sure these problems were there when the old version was installed. I would like to find out whether the old version would solve the issues.

    and what was your old version?
    I don't know  :( :(
    I bit of a long story: my brand new laptop had a defective USB port. MSI flashed the bios to the most recent version and on return I noticed the fan issue (the issue I PM-ed you about). Didn't notice this before, but I'm not 100% sure about this. So I would like to try to flash it to an older bios version if possible. MSI tried to repair the fan issue, but they didn't succeed. All in all: bought this laptop after summer and up to now not been able to use it because it has been longer for repair at MSI than on my table... 

  • Qosmio X300-14Y- How can I find the old BIOS version 1.90?

    Hi,
    First of all; I am so sorry for my bad english knowledge..
    Im from Turkey.
    I use x300 14 y since one week. factory bios version for vista 32 bit 1.90. But I upgraded to 2.10.
    How can I find old bios 1.90 setup file again. ? Please help.......

    You are right. On Toshiba download page you will not be able to find older BIOS version.
    When the new BIOS update is realised the old one will not be available for download.
    If you need older version contact nearest authorized service provider.
    They must have it. Be cool and talk with them. Maybe they can send it to you per mail.

  • Old BIOS version for 945PL Neo (MS-7236 v2.x)

    Older BIOS files for this board 945PL Neo are not available for download on the website, it's all done through the updater program.  When the bios is upgraded it does not save the old bios for backup, I found out.
    I need to downgrade the BIOS to the board's shipping version.  I unfortunately updated the BIOS to I think it was 5.2 and I need version 5.0.  Upgrading the BIOS screwed up a license key for an application I'm running.  I couldn't have planned a better disaster. 
    Anyone?
    Thank you.

  • Where can I find an old BIOS version for X200

    Hi,
    I am running windows 7 build 7100 on an x200. After updating to BIOS Version 3.05 - 3.06 the system is significant slower. Where can I find the former BIOS version for download?
    In advance thx a lot for support.

    Hi wolfgang285, and welcome to the Lenovo User Community!
    All the BIOS versions which have been released on the web are on the X200 BIOS update page.
    I don't work for Lenovo. I'm a crazy volunteer!

    Well, to what version do you want to go back? Also you might have to go back to a current bios once reverted to be able to use the GTX770.

  • Z77A-GD65 Buggy bios Version 10.10

    Hello All
    I recently got this motherboard and during a bios update through MSI tool M-Flash I faced similar problems as some users reported in other post: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=171694.0
    I have made the registration on the forum to share a solution that worked out for me.
    I received the board on Bios 10.0, and  I installed a Core i7 2600k and 16Gb DDR3 2133Mhz on it. First I run it without any PCI-Ex VGA.
    I installed Win 7 64bits Ultimate on a SSD samsung EVO 840 256GB drive without any other drive pluged to the board.
    The result was awsome, loading Windows in 10 seconds.
    Then i instaled my HD6950 VGA and pluged in all my HDD (2 x 2TB + 1TB +750 MB + 500 MB) and every thing worked like a charm.
    Later I thought, I have a very old Bios version, perhaps there is improvements regarding satbility or performance and there was where I mess up.
    I updated the Bios to 10.10 through MSI tool M-Flash, the tool finalized the update (there was a progressing bar on the screen) and reboots the system.
    Guess what? The system didn't boot and was only showing the hash blinking on the up left corner of the screen.
    I switch the Multibios switch to the second bios position and the system got alive again.
    After some trys, I was able to boot from the USB drive from where I have installed the OS, and i notice some strange cenario, the Windows installer was able to "see" all the drives, but if I select any one to go on with the instalation, I got a message like "The Windows can not be installed on this drive because a driver is missing" I'm not sure if these were the exactly words but this was the sense of the message.
    This was the way I didi it:
    1- you need get a good bios file (you can boot with 2nd bios and save it to a file or you can download a diferente version in my case I got the file for 10.8 version). When you download the bios from MSI webpage you get 3 files (7750vAx.TXT, AFUD238S.EXE and E7751IMS.A80 in case of version 10.8)
    2- You need to prepare a bootable USB drive with MS DOS or equivalente, for that I have used "rufus-1.4.12" software that you can download on Rufus webpage.
    3- After you create the bootable USB drive with MS DOS, copy all the files you got from MSI webpage on the root directory. You can check on a diferente PC or with the other bios if every thing is ok and if the bootable USB is working properlly.
    4- Select the BIOS you want to restore with Multibios switch (the phisical switch on the board). (As far as I understood, older boards allows you to boot with bios 1 and after boot you would be able to switch to bios 2 and flash it, on this borad that won't work you will flash the bios from you have booted).
    5- Power on your system, entrer the bios and set options to default, save and power off the system. (this is very importante because you can flash a diferente bios with diferente options and if this options won't exists on the version you are instaling the system can hang up and mayby this could be the end for this bios - I'm guessing but is better not to try)
    6- disconnect all your sata drives.
    7 - Power on the system and boot from the USB drive with MS DOS
    8 - Type the folowing comand "AFUD238S.EXE E7751IMS.A80 /S" and press Enter, the software will do a full flash to the bios. Don't power off the system during this procedure otherwise this bios is dead.
    8 - After every thing have finished (you should see the promt on the screen C:>\), reboot your system and you should get a functional bios, justo ensure you test it first only with the OS drive and then plug the others.
    Note: This board has a multibios function on the Bios that if it is turned on the system will copy the content of one bios chip to the other, BUT, as far as i understood the system wil do a comparison between both chips and will replace the older version with the new one, that in my case would be a problema because the most recente one is the faulty one.
    I hope this can help any one who is facing this or similar problems.
    Best Regards from Portugal.

  • Is it possible to get back 2.0 version coz I've updated it to 3.0...

    Is it possible to get back 2.0 version coz I've updated it to 3.0 and I'm not happy with it. The new features are cool and all but the thing is, the battery drains quickly. And who would want that? I'll be satisfied having the older version back if that's the case.
    Before updating my iPhone to it's latest version, the battery is not that easy to drain. But ever since I updated it to 3.0 version software, my iPhone does not even last for a day. WELL GETTING TO MY MAIN POINT, IS IT POSSIBLE TO GET THE OLD SOFTWARE VERSION WHICH IS 2.0? Please if you have any idea to answer my question, please do so. And tell me how and what to do. Thanks.
    Message was edited by: Alyssabeybeh=))

    I've experience the EXACT same problem. Apple Support didn't believe the battery draining coincided with the 3.0 upgrade. I've tried evverything. Apple was awesome in that they replaced myt previous iPhone. Problem is, the exact same problem persists. I've turned off all wireless except GSM. I've removed all apps. I've reduced brightness to nearly nothing. Still, the battery drains within 4 hours. I'm on my way back to the Genius bar today.

  • Query BIOS Version Before Running Command or Installing Application?

    I have a task sequence that queries the computer model and then runs a BIOS update if the model matches.
    If the BIOS is already up to date, the BIOS update application doesn't update the BIOS and the deployment continues. Everything is OK, but then we get a yellow summery screen at the end saying the BIOS update task had an error code.
    Is there a way to filter the BIOS update task so that it only runs when the model matches AND the BIOS version is below a certain value?

    There's bound to be a lot of ways you could approach this - assuming you would use a TS step, with a WQL condition, like this example:
    http://scriptimus.wordpress.com/2011/06/22/mdt-2010-using-wmi-queries-with-task-sequence-step-conditions/
    In pseudocode; yours might be "if bios version<>theupdateversionIhaveinthispackage, then apply the biosupdate"
    e.g.
    select smbiosbiosversion from win32_bios where smbiosbiosversion <> "K01 v.2.05"
    [if the condition returns NULL, the bios version is at this version, so no bios update needed]
    [if the condition returns a value, the bios version is not at the packaged version, so apply the bios update]
    [note: this very simple condition does not allow for *newer* bios version being found in the machine!]
    I haven't tested this logic, you should do so.

    Of course my update was successful. I am able to see the 6.6 updates in other stuffs, as for example in /etc/redhat-release. Just the progress bar when Oracle Linux is bringing up is showing "Oracle Linux Server 6.4". My guess it is some kind of image, because it changes the color as the progress bar is going forward.
    Actually, your update wasn't successful, or at least, it wasn't complete. The tool responsible for the boot loader screen is plymouth and the version comes from the /etc/system-release file.  If the content of that file isn't "Oracle Linux Server release 6.6", then your update hasn't updated oraclelinux-release to the latest version.
    However, if that file is correct, it means that plymouth hasn't updated the initrd properly during the upgrade. You can manually trigger a rebuild of the initrd by running:
    # plymouth-set-default-theme text --rebuild-initrd
    And it'll rebuild it for you. However, I've never seen a complete update (via yum update) that hasn't rebuilt this properly. Did you perhaps only do a security-related update using the yum-security plugin?

  • Is it possible to upgrade an old PB G4 to support a new iTouch?

    Is it possible to upgrade an old PB G4 to support a new iTouch? 
    I understand I can upgrade the RAM and upgrade the internal drive.  But I don't know if that is sufficient to run a newer version OS...which ever that might be.  I think the newer ones need a dual core intel chip to run?  I plan to give my daughter a new iTouch but since I already have maxed out devices on my laptop, I thought I would just update my old PowerBook G4.

    No. The current iPod touch models require Mac OS X 10.6.8, which requires an Intel Mac.

  • Just downloaded the new OS for IPhone. Despise the appearance. It has jacked with the way I like things in some unacceptable ways. Is there any way to keep the OS, but return to the old appearance? Important to know BEFORE I download OS for computer.

    Just downloaded the new OS for IPhone. Despise the appearance. It has jacked with the way I like things in some unacceptable ways. Is there any way to keep the OS, but return to the old appearance? Important to know BEFORE I download OS for computer.

    I know I am responding to my own thread, but I an SOOOO disgusted with Apple right now.
    The new iOS 7 was the lead story on CNN today... and it wasn't positive. Easy to see why, it's a graphics disaster. It is ugly, difficult to read, doesn't interface aesthetically with the iPhone 4S, and gives everyone in America vertigo. Either fix the appearance, or find some way to allow us to roll back to our previous iOS. Do so quickly, or this life-long Apple customer [circa 1978] will be moving on. If this represents shades of what is coming with OS Maverick, I am petrified. Further, I am a GM of a chain of newspapers and websites in the Austin, Texas area. I will be ripping out a scathing editorial. The notion that we can't roll back from something millions of us hate is despicable. I'm giving you one week. Be sure I am not alone.

  • Is it possible to get my old iphone 3gs from att to work on a verizon network?

    is it possible to get my old iphone 3gs from att to work on a verizon network?

    No - your iPhone is a GSM phone and Verizon uses a CDMA network. Completely incompatible device and technology.
