Hello all, new in forum.

I want to overclock my VAIO VGN-AR51M but cant acces to BIOS parameters.

This models have the same BIOS :

VGN-AR51E R1050J8
VGN-AR51M R1050J8
VGN-AR51SU R1050J8
VGN-AR670 R1050J8
VGN-AR690U R1050J8

Can you help me please?

This is the Original BIOS Backup [attachment=3237] or http://www.megaupload.com/?d=PPGT7U8O

Thanks all!
The backup copy can't be flashed after modified , so i need origial from the website .
The backup copy is missing the platform information and it will be useless for you after modified as you will not be able to flash it using any tool.
Try finding the original bios for one of the modules you have mentioned as there are all use the same bios ..... i will mod it if you find original one but now i can`t do anything .

I have searched the original bios but can not find it anywhere.
Any suggestions where to look?
Thanks!

Hello again!
I have been researching and i found this bios R1050J8, but dont know if it's original.
Any way to know if it's the original?

I have also seen in this post a user has flashed a bios R2080J8 instead a R1050J8 and it works.

Can you tell me if the R1050J8 attached is the original bios or just i can flash the R2080J8 modified.

Thanks for everything!
