What other BIOS for G560 ?

Hi,
I bought the Lenovo G560 i3 with FreeDOS because I did not want to use Windows (besides, my old XP does not work on it, probably because it's a 32 bit version).
However, some OS don't work - well, they work but they just won't boot by itself without the help of a special boot disk and some of the hardware are not activated afterwards like the micro and the webcam.
I suspect this has something to do with the poor BIOS of my G560 model.
So my question is: Can I use a different BIOS from Lenovo to get things working?
If yes, what other version could I flash?
Thanks for any help.

there's no official bios available right now for g560.
try to use 64 bit operation systems.

  • Latest and correct BIOS for G560

    The Drivers download sections says that the latest/current BIOS for G560 is V2.15, from Feb. 14, 2011, 29CN38WW. How can I tell whether I have this version (fully) installed? If I check it with Everest, it says "29CN38WW(V2.15)" under BIOS version, which is OK. However, the BIOS Date says January 28, 2011, which is different from what's published on the website.
     Why the discrepancy in the date?

    Yes, that's the picture I was referring to. If you take it literally, it's showing that position two (the UEFI bios) is towards the side of the card with the power connectors (on the right, if you're looking at the side with the fan). However, while only one of the R9 280X cards I have is labeled on the motherboard, it shows position 2 as being towards the end of the card with the video connectors.
    To state that more simply, I suppose, the picture on the page you linked implies that the polarity of the switch shown is in relative to when you're looking at the card from the fan side. I think what's actually going on here is that the picture of the card with the fan is just intended to show where the switch is; the actual close-up of the switch is actually from the side with the motherboard visible (in other words, position 2 is towards the end of the card that is visible at the back of the computer case).

  • [Request] Latest (or alternative) bios for R9 280X Gaming 3G

    I'm having artifacts, graphical errors and crashes in games, in desktop and when watching videos, so basically all the time. I have tried 13.12 official and 13.11 beta -drivers provided by AMD and the one provided by MSI, no help there. I could try newer/older/some other bios for this card before sending RMA.
    Serial number: 602-V277-38SB1401020604
    Current BIOS: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/43449874/Tahiti.rom

    Current setup:
    CPU: 4670k
    MB: Asus Z87-A
    PSU: Seasonic x-560
    RAM: 16GB Corsair 1600MHz 1.5V
    SSD: Samsung 128GB 840 pro
    I have OC'd the CPU, will try later with stock settings. I could also give a try for removing one set of RAM or setting it to 1333MHz. I can try the R9 in another computer in couple of days when a PSU for my 2nd machine arrives.
    Edit: Forgot to mention, the system is completely stable with another GPUs I have tried.
    Update: Removed one 8GB kit of ram, set the rest to 1333MHz. Set CPU to stock speed and voltages. Nothing changed, still artifacts.

  • What's the correct bios for my Satellite A100? Is PSAA9E = PSAA9 ?

    Hi,
    I wanna do a BIOS Update. But If I go to the Toshiba-driversite: http://de.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_bios.jsp and choose Notebook-->Satellite-->A series there are listed:
    A100 (PSAA2)
    A100 (PSAA8)
    A100 (PSAA9)
    A100 (PSAAN)
    A100 (PSAAR)
    At the undersite of my Laptop is printed: PSAA9E. Is this the same as PSAA9 ?

    Hi mate,
    dont worry and download the bios for PSAA9 since toshiba cuts the last digits from the model number because the last digit probably the region or country describes. I am not sure, but what I am sure is that PSAA9E definetively PSAA9 is.
    Cheers

  • My instant watch for netflixs is not working on my macbook pro. I just shows a black screen. I know that the problem is not Silverlight, so what other type of software or upgrades am I missing?

    Go figure both Apple support and Netflixs support "have never seen a problem quite like mine" the same day my free trial has ended. And no the, problem is not with my Netflixs account because they charged my debit card just fine. I'm trying to play instant movies on my netflixs account and every time I click on a movie or show it just shows up a black screen with no play controls. According to Netflixs I'm either missing a peice of software or I need to uninstall and reinstall a program or plug-in or something. At first they thought it was Microsoft Silverlight, but I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling that several times and nothing has changed, plus since I had no play controls as well the problem is definetly not Silverlight. So I was wondering what other types of software or plug-ins are needed to play Netflixs movies or if anyones else has had the same issue and knew how to fix it. And I know that it is a problem with my Macbook Pro, because my netflixs accout still works on my sister's computers. I've tried restarting my computer, restarting Firefox, signing out and back in on Netflixs, praying to God, clearing my cookies and chache, saying nice things to my laptop, yelling at my laptop, and pretty much everything under the sun. Nothing I do is fixing it. Please someone help me figure this out.

    MacBook Pro  / Mozilla Firefox / Netflix / Silverlight Update solved - DON'T DWNLOAD FROM NETFLIX
    I solved this problem tonight. I have a MacBook Pro with 10.5.8. I know, it's old. But I love my Netflix and I recently noticed that Firefox plays Netflix much better.  Then I suddenly got this message that I needed to download the latest Silverlight - it only takes 30 seconds! - WRONG.   However, after much searching, I finally did the steps in order and it worked.  
    This was after repeatedly downloading Silverlight from the Netflix site without success.  So here's what I did:
    1. Went to http://www.microsoft.com/getsilverlight/Get-Started/Install/Default.aspx
    2. Followed the directions. I felt like such an idiot for not doing it right before.
    3. Go to your hard drive and search for "Silverlight" to locate ANY existing Silverlight files: .dmg, etc.
        [also check your Libary/ Internet Plug-ins, but the above search is faster]
    4. Drag it all to the trash and empty it.
    5. Go back to the Get  Silverlight page and click on the Install on that page, not the Netflix site.
    6. Note the steps for Safari or Mozilla Firefox - I wanted Firefox, so I follwed those instructions.
    7. Once it's installed, close all the browsers and Restart that bad boy. Right away.
    8. Open a browser, go to Netflix and proceed to joyfully rot your brain with Netflix content. Yay!

  • How Practical Is MiniMac for Video Editing?  What Other Limitations

    Now that I have two MacBooks (one for me, one for the Missus), I'm thinking about replacing -- or at least augmenting -- my nearly two year old Dell XPS 400 desktop with a high-end MiniMac. I thought about an iMac but I just don't like how the iMacs elevate the viewing angle of the display with 4+ inches of hardware in the case below the screen. I like my monitor right on the desk top, and if I get Mini I can adapt it to my existing display.
    What I do at the desktop is mostly photo processing and some web development. I'm going to presume that the Mini with 2GHz and 2GB or RAM will be quite adequate for those purposes.
    I have not done much video editing, but one of the reasons I'm moving to the Mac platform is because I keep thinking one of these days I'm going to. So the question becomes: without a dedicated, high-end video card/RAM, what are the limitations on video editing with a Mini?
    I mean, the all come with iLife, and iMovie, and now iMovie HD-08, so I assume that even the Mini is capable of SOME video editing chores. I'm just wondering at what point I might hit a ceiling and start to wish I'd gone a different route.
    I gather that the Mini is intended as an "entry level" Mac (not unlike the MacBook) so I wonder what other limitations users have encountered, if they've ever hit a point where they've said to themselves, "****, I should have gone another route..." ??
    I'll spend some more time with some of these other threads too, but that's my primary issue at the moment.
    Thanks,
    --PS

    Hi
    +I gather that the Mini is intended as an "entry level" Mac (not unlike the MacBook)+
    The MacBook and Mac Mini are very similar in that they both use laptop components and the specs are almost the same. Both use an Intel Core 2 Duo processor, integrated Intel GMA 950 graphics, have a 667MHz FSB and a 2.5" 5400 RPM hard drive etc.
    Whilst it doesn't answer your question, I'd be tempted just to hook up an external display, keyboard and mouse to the MacBook and see how you get on. I'd imagine the experience would be very similar to using a Mini, and you'd need a display, keyboard and mouse for the Mini anyway should you then decide to buy one (they're not included).
    I expect hard drive speed and capacity would be one limitation, for the MacBook and Mini, but you could always hook up an external firewire drive etc.

    Jeannette

    The various Lynda.com video tutorials are very good, but you have to pay for a description.  The Photoshop User TV podcasts are excellent; there are hundreds of them, and they are free.  They are also what the iPad was invented for.
    The 'You suck at Photoshop' videos on YouTube are both very funny and very instructive. 
    The Scott Kelby books are very good for folk starting out.  The Martin Evening, and the Martin Evening/Jeff Schewe books are as good as they get from a photography point of view.  The Steve Caplin books are the best Photoshop books once you get into it, but Scott Kelby and Matt Kloskowski do some great medium to advanced books.  Matt's Compositing Secrets is excellent, and was Amazon's best Photoshop book for a while.

    Grazie per la risposta ma il bios attuale il 6.10 del 24/09/2012 e quindi pi recente dell' 1.60-WIN.
    Mi chiedevo se quelli forniti da Toshiba America fossero adatti; l'ultimo il 6.40.
