Why do you want to update it anyways? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joaquim Posted March 3, 2021 Author Share Posted March 3, 2021 to be honest i only need update the standard BIOS and not the graphic card "4. forget about the whole thing, so you don't come back tomorrow asking how to fix your laptop to work again " but works and i learned so much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
