Need BIOS P4S266-VX SIS650

[eckzr]

the computer model is a: Sony Vaio PCV RX-752

with a SIS650 motherboard P4S266-VX




i know its outdated because every time i boot it up it says error with BIOS update



i tried a BIOS update from Sony, but it was old, back in 2002 (thats like when i bought the system xD) so that didn't do anything




before some guy tells me to use google...

i have spent at least 2 weeks googling
i need this BIOS because i upgraded my CPU from the built in 2ghz to a 2.5ghz and added 1gb of ram along with a new GeForce 7600 GS. Yet, the CPU speed doesnt feel any different.



I used this program to check my system for drivers and BIOS updates
but it wants to charge me $30 for the link to the BIOS.

Thats the last resort


help me out here gentlemen!

Anything not listed here won't work properly, if you bought a 533MHz FSB 2.5GHz it will run slower (at slightly below 2GHz in fact).

it is the

SL6PN 2.50 GHz N/A 1 400 MHz 0.13 micron D1 512 KB 478 pin N/A


and like i posted in the original post, i did use that BIOS but like i said also, its old. Perhaps thats why it was number 1 in google
