SYMPTOMS

Some customers have reported system hang ups or freezes during heavy use. This can happen while watching video or using any application. Restarting the computer may result in a black screen with the keyboard backlight on.

My model is listed , but the bios is not available for my model in the drivers and downloads page.

Is there a solution for newer BIOS applications for my machine?

Hi,
Yes, then your model is not affected by the symptoms mentioned, I have checked for my model(G9-793) as well, so I guess the BIOS update is not needed for my model, I would suggest you to ignore it.

Obviously our model # is listed in the bulletin description. I still need a fix for the black screen and unresponsive PC when waking up from closing the lid.
