X60 bios backup

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
Can somebody be so kind and make a backup of their X60/X60s BIOS and send it to me. I cannot use the files provided on IBM's website because these are in wrong format (need WPH or ROM). You can do it as follows:

1)
Download the "Phoenix Winpflash Utility"
ftp://ftp.support.acer-euro.com/util...sh-utility.zip

After this, install and run the "Phoenix Winpflash Utility"

2)
Choose "Backup BIOS only"

3)
Take this PhoenixBIOS update for example
http://www.l2ptop.com/dummy.zip

4)
extract the DUMMY.WPH and locate it in "Specify new BIOS file" and choose "Advanced settings"

5)
Then deselect all clickboxes and press ok

6)
Now press "Backup BIOS"

7)
Accept the following message dialog box .and go on with backup your BIOS

Cool
When backup process is finished, you will see the BIOS dump


Please email this file to me, thank you.
