    Hi guys

    Just bought myself a Acer Aspire 1692WLMi laptop from Comet which i am very happy with apart from 1 dead pixel and a bit of dark colouration on the bottom right corner.

    I have noticed that I dont have the latest version of the BIOS on my laptop and i was wondering how do i update the BIOS?

    I have downloaded the correct BIOD from Acer I believe but i am not sure how to go abouts installing it as in the zip file ther are 3 different zip files for a different M/B but how do i check which MB i have?

    I'm assuming 3A28 is the latest for this laptop? I found it on the Acer FTP and not the main webpage...

    Many thanks
