    Yesterday i updated my BIOS to version 1.0Z i noticed that the battery life went from 2 hours 20 minuts to 1 hour 10 minuts on power saver mode.
    And overclocking options is gone now as well (in Bios) Is it normal?

    the only bios that had overclocking was 1.0s after that they cut off the options in the bios.

    ill bet the battery just has to re-calibrate itself i have 2 with 1.0z and have no problems with either one..

    I have learned from past experiences, if its not broken, do not fix it.
