Samsung Q70 Laptop Bad Bios (Phoenix) Flash!

[codeit]

Hi,

Does anyone know if there is an emergency recovery for the bios in Samsungs laptops? Specifically the NP-Q70?

I have had a bad flash of a bios and now the laptop wont boot. I can still get into the bios and POST all goes through fine. I get the BIOS summary screen and then a blank screen. It seems to be stuck in the BIOS still though as if i press F2 at this point it says "Entering SETUP ..." at the bottom of the screen rather than the top of the screen but nothing happens.

I have tried calling Samsung direct and they were useless.

It is a Phoenix bios and I have tried the Crisis recovery method with a floppy disk and using fn+B, fn+ESC, fn+F, all cursor keys, WINKEY+B, WINKEY_F, WINKEY+ESC, different USB ports for the floppy dirve but all to no avail.

Please help if you can.... its driving me insane. Just out of warranty too by about 10 days

Does anyone have the service manual for this Laptop? If they have maybe as a last resort I can remove the BIOS chip and get it reprogrammed off the board.

Cheers
