VERIFY that the file I'm referencing is the correct one. I cannot guarantee that it is. I found the info by doing a Google search myself so BUYER BEWARE.
- Go to the link noted below. Download and unzip the file to an empty folder.
- Open the folder and copy the two files to a FAT formatted usb stick.
- Rename the file FLAS-HIT to FLAS-HIT.EXE and the second file 3309.fd(bios file) to ZG5IA32.FD (note I added dashes to get around the sites profanity filter. they are not part of the file names)
- Insert the usb stick into the left hand side USB slot.
- Make sure the charger is plugged in. Power off the laptop.
- Hold down the fn+esc keys and power up the laptop. When the power led begins to blink release the two buttons and press the power button just once. The indicator on the usb stick should be flashing indicating it's flashing the bios. The update may take up to 7 to 10 minutes so be patient.
Here is the link to the BIOS file as I found it. Again I am not 100% sure this is the right file.
