Need original BIOS flash for Sharp Actius PC-A150

hardkandiboi · Sun May 29, 2005 10:44 am

Hi all,
I am looking for the original BIOS for a Sharp Actuis PC-A150 laptop. I went and flashed it with a Dell LT BIOS which is the same notebook but for some reason after posting and the Dell logo appearing it just hangs and if I press F2 it says entering setup but just hangs and goes no further. So I am trying to get it back to the original BIOS by reflashing the chip with the original Sharp BIOS with the Sharp logo on another working Dell MB but cant find the BIOS flash on any of Sharps websites. Please help

Tried emailing Sharp's tech support about it?

It seems that sharp doesnt want to supply much for support on the older laptops. I remember they used to have everything for this model but no more

I have a working A150. Could I dump my BIOS to a file and send it to you? Let me know by email to chrisda246@yahoo.com
Cheers, Chris
P.S. I was disappointed that A150 BIOS doesn't support over 8GB. I am looking for a BIOS update, official/unofficial, that will support up to 32GB.
Have you heard of one?
