Sager 8790 Bios v. 1.00.10 - Page 3

On bootup you can see the bios version numbers, the video bios version and the KBC/Firmware revision. Just boot, then do a ctrl+alt+del before window starts a few times so you can write down the data as it goes by pretty quick.
Hope this helps.

I believe the Pause/Break button works as well

thanks for the quick response guys, it says i have:

bios 1.00.10 V 122
KBC/EC Firmware 1.00.F6
VBIOS VER088.017M.097.000-2004/05/05

those seem alittle different than what other people have, can anyone send me newer ones at mikedecoro@hotmail.com?

Thanks alot!

^^^^ same one I have. If anyone wants to send that to me as well. Maybe it'll fix my temp issue. Lastplaneout@cfl.rr.com

Or if anyone has a link, that'd be great too..... *smile*

*listens to crickets* ....anyone? *cries*

i think that is the latest bios

Hi all. Can anyone send me the KBC firmware ( bios ) the f6 version that enables high fans?? thank you my email is gevojuve@yahoo.com thanks

My bios version as apears on boot is:

BIOS Revision: V122 1.00.10
KBC/EC Firmware Revision: 1.00.05
VBIOS Revision: VER008.017M.097.000-2004/05/05

Is it all up to date?

And so I understand the 3 Bios/Firmware stated on boot, the first one is motherboard, what about the other two? raid? graphic bios?

PS: With all the treads and confusions about bios why hasn't sager created a page with the several bios available, stating new features, bugs corrected and new issues etc? It would be so easy! put a disclamer on top and that's it... Or if sager won't do anything maybe someone here on the forum can? A sticky with all the info and latest bios download...? just my 2 cents...

My Bios is:

BIOS Revision: V122 1.00.10
KBC/EC Firmware Revision: 1.00.F5
VBIOS Revision: VER008.017M.097.000-2004/2004/03/29

It seems that other people have a more up to date bios.

Could someone please email me the most recent bios?

Thanks

Yeah! I wish Sager would just post their BIOS on their site!

anyone??

always good to email sager about this directly, they will send you the bios if you are outdated...

Well, I emailed Sager and they sent me a BIOS. Since everyone keeps asking, here it is:
http://home.insightbb.com/~joshjacob/879BV10.ZIP

After the flash and it reboots, press Press <Ctrl>+<C> to quit BIOS update again. At the A: prompt type "h8-f6" to update the system firmware.


It changed my BIOS to:
BIOS Revision: V122 1.00.10
KBC/EC Firmware Revision: 1.00.F6
VBIOS Revision: VER008.017M.097.000-2004/2004/03/29

I hope its not breaking any "rule" here at notebookforums....

Worked like a charm! thanks a lot!

I seem to have an older version of my video bios, mine is ver008 011.001.068 - 2004/03/10

This may also be the cause of a new problem I encountered when I finally noticed the ctrl +c after flashing and entering h8-f6 which updated my kbc, and enabled the fan modes finally.

Now however, I have a serious problem. When I enable the fans, my temps on mobmeter drop way down (which is beautiful) but I'm assuming my cpu temp is skyrocketing because it's giving me everyone's favorite ungraceful shutdown with complimentary beeps before turning off..

I intitally wanted the fan mode enabled because I hoped it would counter the artifacting at default gpu clock speeds, and I wouldn't have to do the underclocking (which thankfully, still rectifies the problem with no noticeable lag on the video card in games)

Has anyone else updated the kbc and then had this problem while running the fans in turbo jet engine mode? Anyone have a cure? Could it be because my video bios isn't seemingly up to date?

I'm kinda screwed, since my warrantee with sager ran out in May, I do however have the Warrantech three year still, i'm ready to just have them come pick it up and install a new mobo, since that's what sagers been doing for everyone.

Here's the best question I haven't seen asked here:

What does the new BIOS do that upgrades/increases the BIOS that <insert user here> doesn't have ?

Anyone have the newest BIOS for the 8790?

Does anybody around here have the newest BIOS for the 8790? Thanks in advance!

PM G-Omaha. He should be able to hook you up.
