Just installed this on my Y580 running Windows 8 with no problems (from post #258). My Y580 came with Windows 7 originally and I was using the modded 2.06 firmware from the first post. Thanks!

Same thing for me. My Y580 came with windows 7 and 2.0.6. I am using the unlocked one from here, but am getting really bad tearing and artifacting 3D games (Battlefield 3). I'm hoping for a 2.0.7 unlocked version or I will have to use the crappy WiFi that came with the laptop.

Hi, I'm trying to install the bios from thread #155. I have a Y580 that came with windows 7, and now is running windows 8. I have the original modded bios from thread #1 installed currently. I unblocked all files and ran as administrator and get this error: ------------------------------------------------------ C:\BIOS>FLASH.bat ************************* http://forum.techinferno.com To flash the BIOS press y, to abort press n or any other key. Confirm with enter. Flash? y Intel ® Flash Programming Tool. Version: 8.0.10.1464 Copyright © 2007 - 2012, Intel Corporation. All rights reserved.

There is an updated bios for which is version 5dcn40ww.exe. Would be great to get that un-whitelisted. The reason to get 5dcn40ww is that playing some 3D games I get crashes and this bios is supposed to fix some of the crashes in games. P.S. The BACKUP.bat gets the same error, Error 104. Any help would be appreciated.
