That's messed up and you flashed an official BIOS from MSi too. Don't know what to say.

Guys,

I just checked my bios with CPU-Z and it says: version: E16F2IM7 VER.10A, date: 3/11/2011.
I do have a msi barebone but under Medion brand.
I checked the size of the bios and it is indeed 2,560kb as the one posted by Xonar.

Will it be safe then to flash my bios with the unlocked one V3.0 E16F21MT ? I don't want to mess around with my laptop but as I am getting a 2720qm tomorrow, it might have to be done, I don't know.

thanks for your answers

umm actually unless you got XMP ram or want it to be set at a specific frequencies, otherwise no, you wont get any benefit flashing it

Nothing has to be done. If you are not comfortable with it, then don't do it. Otherwise, give it a shot if you need XMP support.

If you have a GT683 then you have HM67 chipset. Flash it only if you need XMP support, otherwise you'll see only risk involved.

Greetings,

im running a medion MS-16F2 and the bios is kinda crap because there are absolutely no performance settings enabled. I am pretty much sitting at a bios where I can choose the boot configuration ... thats about all I can do right there.
I do not really care about that xmp stuff but rather would like to get some performance options enabled, how does one do that with as little risk as possible?

You must have the same bios as mine. Check on CPU-Z what it says about the version and date of your bios: mine E16F2IM7 VER.10A, date: 3/11/2011.

And there's nothing you can do in your bios to improve your laptop, what Medion do you have anyway?

erazer 6813

well its not about improving it, its more about getting access to more options.

EDIT: and it would be super awesome to remove the butt ugly medion logo on startup, how ugly is that thing ...

EDIT2: paulow, I just saw you have a 6813 too, also with a 460m, how did you get that to 900? What program did you use?
