Re: Wanting latest BIOS for Medion Akoya P7628 / MD99280

I managed to dump the AMI BIOS using "David's" bios dump utility.

In what way can I obtain a dump of that other chip? Bear with me: I am not an electrical engineer ...

Tia!...

That is not quite true.

I mailed to Medion support about "missing" BIOS downloads and they replied that it is company policy to NOT make BIOSes downloadable straight away, but only if the requester can supply:
- the receipt of the original buyer of the laptop
- the serial#

Since I receive older laptops from quite a few people, I don't know from which person I even got this laptop, so, no receipt, and thus no BIOS

Never ever I encountered such...

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Hello all,

have been from 1979 in ICT, mostly as an IBM S/370 & S/390 Systems programmer.

Later on started to use PC's etc. and now helping lots of people out with laptop hardware & software issues.

Apart from that I am a programming language freak ... ehm.

Found this forum in the hope to find a very specific BIOS. Seems to be the right forum for it!

Keep up the good work!!!
