I don't think mine was a wrong bios detected error but I did have to "enable" flashing old version in bios to downgrade from 3.05 to 2.07. I don't remember the exact title. It's in the same section as enabling/disabling "wireless" towards the bottom.

I bought mine from amazon with prime. It was ~32 dollars.

Confirming success. I was on a modded 2.07 previously and decided to go back to 3.05 with modded bios a shot. To be safe, I followed all the steps and got it all working. However, svl, I noticed the output of Biosfixer 2.0 from 3.05 zip file was named v305Mod.bin and I checked your BIOS.bat file had this line: "fpt -f 305mod.bin -BIOS". I fixed the BIOS.bat to match with the file name so I had mine as "fpt -f v305mod.bin -BIOS". Just a little something in case something people will come across... My Intel 7260 AC that was working on modded 2.07 is still working on modded 3.05. So I want to say thank you for this! In summary, Modded 2.07 -> Stock 3.05 -> Stock 2.07 -> Modded 3.05. SIDENOTE: I had to remove my Intel 7260 AC card prior to flashing bios to stock avoiding the "unsupported wireless card message" and had "wireless" disabled in the bios the time being I was upgrading the bios.

I want to also confirm this. I followed @Shamejonas instructions since I bought a y410p with BIOS 3.05. I was able to sucessfully downgrade from 3.05 to 2.07 then installed 2.07 mod (wlan whitelist). I haven't installed an intel 7260 AC model yet as it will be arriving end of this week

How is the cooling pad working out for you? Is it worth getting?

Heya guys. I joined the forum mainly to learn and install modded bios so I can use much better wifi card for my y410p. But I'm sure as I continue staying in this community, I will learn more than just what I came here for and that's usually the case -
I went ahead and bought a PNY 128gb SSD, I am currently using that as my primary OS drive while the 1 TB as a media storage. Working great.

I've been asking many people and many that has y410p/y510p recommends the 7260 AC if they are able to mod their bios

This is what mine says, can I downgrade mine to 2.07? Top right says REV 3.7, while I have bios revision of 3.05. http://i.imgur.com/kDZayDb.jpg EDIT: See my post below. If moderator can combine my post, that'd be great as well.
