I have a re-badged Arima laptop (TPG Laptop, eMachines), and I still have the old BIOS, and I want to update it, but I can't find anything on their website. Does anyone else know of any?

Is there any ID to the BIOS? Do you have some kind of model number for the laptop? The more information you can let us have, the better chance we have of locating something.

Ummm...in Cpu-z it tells me that the BOIS is a American Megatrends Inc, Version Arima021 dated 12/07/2004. My computer is a model W720K8, too

Sure about the model W720-K8? I only found:

Its a W720-K7 just with a AMD 64-Bit in it, so they call it a W720-K8. Would the W720-K7 BIOS work with mine?
