MSI GX60-1AC with GX60-3AE (Hitman Edition) BIOS?

Would it be possible to flash the GX60-3AE (Hitman Edition) BIOS onto the GX60-1AC?

When using the AFUDOS utility to flash the BIOS on the GX60-1AC, I get the following error:

+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+

| AMI Firmware Update Utility v3.04.01 |

Reading flash ............... done

- FFS checksums ......... ok

4 - Error: ROM file ROMID is not compatible with existing BIOS ROMID.

According to the AFUDOS /? command, I could bypass the ROMID check by specifying the /X option.

However, before attempting this, I would like to know if this will brick the system and whether the 3AE BIOS will work on the 1AC?

You have two way to you're flash :

1 - Edit the flash.bat of the bios and delete "/X"

2 - Edit the BIOS file and change ROMID

But I think that if there is 2 separete BIOS for the two computer, it's because they don't have the same Hardware, so I think that you will brick your computer if you do this.
