You can find this BIOS (R2170M3) at "Windows 7" section of downloads for VGN-Z21MRN Here the link http://support.vaio.sony.eu/computing/vaio/downloads/updates/index.aspx?l=en_GB&m=VGN-Z21MRN_B&os=10 This BIOS is "required" for some reasons if you want to install Windows 7 on your VAIO-Z. > which is in fact the same as R2168M3 with as only change, that you now > can switch virtualization on/off in the BIOS. > Did you enter a wrong model in the website? Thanks. Actually I use R2168M3 with "advanced" options enabled. But yesterday I try to setup dual-boot Windows 7/Linux, update BIOS to R2170M3 - and get all this crap with screen in Speed mode. I can tell you more - with R2170M3 bios you can't use Windows XP in Speed mode, cause you get the same symptoms "colored vertical lines". _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~sony-vaio-z-series Post to : sony-vaio-z-series@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~sony-vaio-z-series More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
