[fabcas]

Hello all,
Do you know what's the latest BIOS update for the Defiance V laptop (based on Clevo PA71ES-G):
https://clevo-computer.com/en/clevo-pa70es-g/pa71es-g

I found the following that seems quite recent but I'm not sure what is doing and if fits with the product: https://my.hidrive.com/share/yze8mg...e/CLEVO/P_Series/PAxx_Series/PA7xExx/PA7xEPES

Anyone upgrading same laptop as mine? Thanks

If it's a pcs laptop and you upgrade the BIOS without PCS consent then you can void your warranty

7.9	We reserve the right to suspend the warranty or refuse service if your Case, Motherboard, CPU or BIOS have been replaced without authorisation. Any tampering, repair or modification by unauthorised personnel voids the warranty.

Thank you for the quick feedback: How should I ask PC specialist if this upgrade is allowed?

message them through the support tab on your account page, they will then reply with instructions etc if they think it is required (which 9 times out of 10 it isn't unless you are having a problem)

Why do you want to update the BIOS? It doesn't need to be kept up to date like software does. The BIOS is firmware and effectively part of the hardware. You need a very good reason to update your BIOS.
