BIOS Upgrade for PCG-F160

Hello.

My problem is that the grpahics are not in high definition but a kind of VGA poor quality. I thought the solution could be to flsahs the BIOS, so I downloaded the files phalsh2.exe and platform.bin. I booted in DOS but I get a message on running phlash2.exe that the platform.bin file cannot be loaded

Thanks in advance for you assistance

Hi mlewis and welcome to Club Vaio (at last!)

What Operating System are you using? I think these old BIOS Updates only work with W2K.

Are you using the correct Video Chip drivers for your OS?

:thinking:

Hello

I'm using Windows 2000. No idea about the video chip etc.
What can I do.

Thanks, Mark

I think Sony has ended support for the F160, which is a pain

Well, drivers are available but they dont seem to work

Even if support has ended, the files are available and if they dont work, what [else] can I do?
