Glad to hear the good news about your friend Prema! ...and wellcome back! By the way I got the stock BIOS from SAGER, it is System BIOS V 1.03.06LS1 EC V 1.03.02. If you happen to want it, let me know. Cheers!

Hi Prema, I have a question. I have my Sager NP7338 (Clevo W230ss) and had installed your last moded BIOS right after receiving it. I'm running Linux (Mint 17) and encountered some weird issues when plugging a USB sound Card (Tascam US122L). When I plug it in, the card is recognized but right after it, linux encounters a problem related to XHCI and shuts down all my USB ports. I know that there could be several issues going on but my question is how the BIOS part works as I disabled XHCI and EHCI, just in case under USB settings, but I still having the issue. Shall this settings work like that? Another one, if I want to go back to stock BIOS just to try.. is there any "briking risk"? Or I should be good to give it a try? Thanks in advance for the help!!

Hi there, As far as I understand, Prema actually implemented some constant low speed strategies on BIOS fan configurations. Did you already checked on yours?

Hi There! Waiting for my Clevo W230ss down in Argentina. I'll love to play with that beast, not only gaming but also tweaking parameters on the custom BIOS Prema cooked to get all the juice out of this deamon.

Hi, I'm thinking of flashing the W230SS BIOS. Talking about hotkeys and averything, does anybody knows if thre are diferences between Windows 7 and 8 with this model? I planning to put Win7 (dualbooting Linux Mint also). Thanks in advance!

Hi! I'm still waiting for my W230ss and reading the forum (as well as collecting post to be able to eventually download the BIOS, hahaha). Is there any documentation I could read to get to know the different parameters one can tweak and the "safe limits" not to burn anything? Thanks in advance!

Thanks Lobofly! Well, bare in mind that your machine is 17". the W230SS is 13" and the space is pretty tight on there. Anyway, I can't wait to start playing with this thing.

Thank you Prema for such a dedicated work! I'm expecting my Clevo W230SS in the next coming weeks. I just found the Thread and will have to start studying overclocking / undervolting parameters and strategies not to mess up things. Nevertheless my main concern on the updated BIOS is the possibility to tweak cooling strategies to minimize heat effects and noise on normal operation (I've been reading quite a few posts on noise problems). Thanks!
