Thanks for your post. I think I have sp33749. My North Bridge is RS480 and South Bridge SF400.
I guess I have to use 3091F27A.wph file. Where can I find it? I checked www.bios-mods.com and
www.mydigitallife.net but couldn't find it any where. On the Internet too I couldn't find any
downloadable links. 

Also, how to run ct8check.exe? I am new to BIOS mod and will very much appreciate your help.

Thanks a lot for this link. My wifi card is now recognized perfectly. 
I have a few more questions and will appreciate if you could reply
as you have vast knowledge of BIOS and related things.

1. This laptop has 32Mb, 64Mb and 128 Mb settings in BIOS for Video Memory. I have
maxed it to 128 Mb but want to take it to 256Mb for video ram. My main RAM is 2 GB.

2. I have another laptop which is Lenovo Ideapad Y530 and it came with a
hard drive speed of SATA II. Is it possible to make it SATA III? I have put Intel SATA III
ssd in it but it gets limited to SATA II. Further, I have forgotten the Supervisor password
for the laptop. Is it possible to recover it or bring BIOS to it's original state? Some tech people
told me that it can be done only by changing the motherboard.

Awaiting you reponse!
