G74SX Keyboard Issues? ATK 1.0.00010 / BIOS 202 Available (SOLVED)

[Joss]

Hey guys, I updated my bios to version 202, I use my laptop as a desktop, I've connected an external keyboard and num pad is permanently enabled on the external keyboard, with the previous bios did not do this, hopefully they can fix this later.
The problem of CPU Throttling to 798mhz not been repaired with this BIOS revision.

Where I can download the previous bios that came factory on the download page is not listed, thanks

When I try to flash it, a big message pops up saying "File can not be read fully". Any solutions to this? I'm attempting to flash the .202 file that you provided. Is it an invalid format or something?

I would recommend that you use the Start Easy Flash Tool, is in the bios, and format your flash drive in FAT 32 before copying the bios.

I did it that way.

Does this come with the asus live update?

From windows you can do with WinFlash utility, but I recommend you do it from Easy Flash (in the bios), because if the OS becomes unstable and the BIOS update is not completed, you have to send your laptop to asus for the revive.

Does this update works on all asus's G74SX ? Because i have the non 3d version but the G74SX-TZ117V

I've updated to the new BIOS 202. However my numberlock key is still acting as Windows 7 Caculator hotkey.

(I am still using ATK 1.0.0008.)
