So as the title says, I have a little problem when updating the BIOS on my 5553G. In my other discussion post, someone said that I should try updating the BIOS on my laptop in order to fix the issue. I found some BIOS files on the HelpDrivers webpage, and upon extracting the files and running the flash utility, I always get some type of error preventing me from reflashing the BIOS. I have tried multiple versions, and even ran the utility through MS-DOS, where I get a message that the "file has different BIOS part number". The only thing i can think of is that I somehow have the wrong files or something. Does anybody have any idea where can I find the original files or is there any other solution?

Thanks in advance!
