So I have been trying to flash the BIOS of my G74SX-BBK7, I downloaded the correct new BIOS file from the ASUS support website, but when I try to flash it with WinFlash it keeps saying I have the wrong file @_@ I triple checked several times and it is the right one, the only difference it shows "S" being small but it IS the RIGHT file @_@ I tried the other flash program but when I tried to install it, it gives me an error that it is for 64 bit (and again it's not!).... Anyway, I have been trying to flash the BIOS because my laptop seems to have an issue, I had a blue screen several times, usually after it goes in hibernation mode. Also it randomly freezes, I would have to "force" shut down with the power button (Very bad!) I just Now did a "clean"install of Windows 7, not with the recovery disk... I discovered several system files being corrupted, I tried to fix them in command prompt "sfc/scannow" >_> didn't work, used recovery disk, didn't work.... Clean install with official Windows 7 disk.... FIXED IT! I'm not sure if that was the problem or not, but wouldn't hurt to try.... I still have the factory installed BIOS 201 on there, sorry for the massive rant lol, I'm just clueless on how to flash BIOS...
