FYI: I received a bios update for my 5680 from Sager Tech Support (thanks, Ted). He gave me bios rev 1.00.09t4 and two keyboard bios revs to choose from (I used 1.00.05). I put them both in then installed the latest Radeon Omega Drivers (2.5.90). So far, the video playback issue is gone and everything is running saweet. Finally!"

Can whoever who has this latest BIOS for the 5680 please mail it to me. It allegedly fixes the jerky DVD playback on Catalyst 4.6 and up.

I tryed to mail you JasonE4, but i received an error... sorry

dle3 · 10-05-2004, 05:05 AM

I flashed the bios successfully and installed the latest omega (2.5.90), but the video playback problem is still here. All the other things work well, as before, but the problem is not solved, i'm very depressed...

I will HAPPILY host these files for download if someone sends it to me. I've been looking for the new 5680 bios forever.

IXIAN. Did you get it? By the way. It did NOT fix my overlay problems.

Colin Dean · 10-05-2004, 10:43 PM

If someone can prove that these updates are completely new and fix the overlay issue, I will host them.

this driver version from omaga fixed it for me

psyang · 10-06-2004, 02:34 PM

So, has anyone who has offered to host the bios actually received it? I think there's a fair amount of demand for it...

Uhm, you think maybe you could point us to where you got that? I emailed sager today and they sent me the V1.00.09t4 BIOS, but they say this has nothing to do with fixing the overlay problem

gibbonsl · 10-06-2004, 07:31 PM

no that is the video driver from omaga

his latest one

eh never mind i missread a post before i posted my first post

I do not own a sager 5680 per se, but I have a laptop that looks identical, but has a different name "Whitebox CL5".

I was annoyed by the video display "bug" with WinDVD playback, so I checked this forum.

Halleluja!

I do not yet know if any thing is screwed ut, but the playback issue seems to be solved in WinDVD.

I used Winphlash and flashed from windows with "568R10s.wph", and I had no problems what-so-ever in the time right after flashing.

I have to get back to this thread if anything has gone wrong somehow, but right now everything seems OK.

(Will go watch the movie Gods&Generals now)

Edit: A few days later, I have had no issues that I am aware of after flashing the bios.

Edit2: Ok, a while later it is fair to suspect that I have one issue. My boot-up often result in a blue screen of death, with varying errors. Not a critical I guess, but somewhat annoying.

Edit3: Ok, the blue screen of death is gone, and I dont know why.
