OK i DL,burn,boot hiren miniXp and try to run sp62135.exe which is supposed to 
contain the last bios but it gives a lot of errors:

GetFirmwareEnvirnomentVariable ERROR_INVALID_FUNCTION!!.

Perhaps because this sp... is supposed to run with win7 and i have hiren mini XP.

Now i feel i'm going off topic... so somebody may help or suggest another NG 
where to continue to try?
