GL553VE Automatic shutdown with Manual Fan Boost

[Sid7886]

Hi Bahz..I checked my laptop again and it seems to be running fine now..I dont see any hiccup in FPS while playing games..Could you provide some visibility on the BIOS update on the website for GL553VE..Its showing BIOS 302 to be the updated one (as of 7th Sept 2017)..the earlier BIOS hotfix (termed as BIOS 303) has been removed and you cannot update the new BIOS showing on website now as it has an older version 302..

Could you please confirm from your team if its okay to be running the 303 Hotfix Bios (which was released earlier). If not, what is way around to install BIOS 302 now..Ideally they should have termed that as BIOS 304 or something for installing it..

Looking forward to your reply.

No i don't have any issue on BIOS 302 regarding shutdown/crashing, except keyboard backlit function (fn+f3)
does not work properly to turn the lights off, But that's something i can live with
Other than that 302 seems pretty stable for me for my every day use.

Hi Mubex!
Could you clarify a couple of things:
1. Speaking of "i don't have any issue on BIOS 302" you mean 2017/09/07 or 2017/03/16?
2. If you mean 2017/03/16, so you haven't encounter shutdown in several minutes after manual tuning (except choosing 100%) Fan Boost?

1. Open AMIUCP
2. Open AFUIWINGUI.... of your notebook type in AMIUCP
3. Choose Extract
4. Select the one that has @ROM as its ID
5. Give the file a name, whatever is fine then press Apply
6. You'll get a bin file, insert that into a flash drive and plug it in
7. Restart your notebook and enter BIOS
8. Choose advanced mode and enter EZFLASH BIOS
9. Choose your flash drive and then your bin file

Soulifyx, thanks a lot! This algorithm is not easy to guess.
Would you (or someone else, who has already done it) kindly help me with one thing: after "5. Give the file a name, whatever is fine then press Apply" i got a file, but it has no extension and is not recognized as .bin file (unless you type it in filename). Is it how it supposed to be?

Thanks in advance!

Just type newbios.bin. It should be fine.

Nobody has a clue why so since last 10 days. I Guess 302 has cognitive bias.

Both 302 bios are the same. I did compare both 302 using ultra compare, both match. Use 303 if you want to update.

I'm trying to get this clarified, I would agree if this is the newer version then it should be renamed to BIOS 304. There's an internal process that's running right now and we're trying to determine when BIOS 303 will be released again. I'll update once I receive a reply from our service team.
