Flashing another mobo bios to Toshiba Portege A200??

I have a nice Toshiba Portege A200 Laptop, which is rarely sold in the US. It's for the European/Asian markets. The mobo is Toshiba made and use Intel i855GME chipset. I am wondering whether I can flash a DFI i855GME-MGF bios to it. Or perhaps an Intel i855GME bios into the mobo as the Toshiba bios has very limited options. I thank you in advance for your comments/suggestions .

I would guess that the chances of anything good happening are about zero. Most likely the Toshiba BIOS update for another machine would not apply the image. The Intel BIOS might not have edits and would probly leave the machine dead and needing service.
