Hi Guys, just a feedback. With your help, especialy with the BIOS from member hoaca388 in post #10 i could bring back my G701VI back to live! I made it with a programmer CH341A. Then i flashed an unlocked BIOS from Github: https://github.com/ElDudorino/Asus-G701VI-Bios and finaly i could install Linux Mint. Thanks for that.
