Hello. I am wanting to upgrade from a Llano APU (socket FS1) to a Trinity APU (socket FS1r2). While the sockets are physically compatible, I do need a BIOS mod to use the new architecture.
I am currently running an HP Pavilion g7-1117cl with an AMD A4-3300M APU.
Its latest BIOS (sp57396) can be found here.

I am wanting to upgrade to an AMD A10-4600M.
A newer Pavilion g7 with the needed processor is the Pavilion g7-2051sg.
Its latest BIOS (sp58935) can be found here.

Note: While I do believe that both laptops use the same chipset, I can't find specs to be 100% certain.
[EDIT] I forgot to mention that my laptop uses Insyde BIOS.
Thanks in advance for all of your hard work.
