Hi, Managed to flash it a few times with the help of Pegatron and ExoPC. No problem. Last time i flashed though, something went wrong and now i don't get any image at boot.. (It DOES still boot, indicated by the power-button and the led on my usb flash drive.) They thought it would be possible to reflash, because it seems to access my usb stick.. But, even when forced, it doesn't. (I have a boot stick with recovery bios, etc) All what's left is trying to RMA the WeTab (losing all my data, etc) or try to hot flash it using another Pegatron tablet.. I DO have an ExoPC available, so i could try that.. As long as i know which chip on the PCB is the actual BIOS chip. I need to be 100% sure.. So, does anyone know? Maybe under the tape near the dock connector? Could be a BIOS chip.. Or is it elsewhere located? Where? Thanks, Allegro16.

Hi, was able to backup the BIOS by using the updated AFUDOS for Aption! Though, tools to edit it are unavailable as of yet (AMIBCP for Aptio, MMTool, DMIEdit, Change Logo, Ami Flashers), so i guess i have to wait. Also, i haven't found a single official bios flasher for anythe Pegatron based Slates (ExoPc, WeTab, RM Slate 100, etc).. An official BIOS and flasher would be best for editing, etc. So, if you or someone else has a copy: i'm interested! Allegro16 -- WeTab Meego Slate Bios Information: BIOS Vendor: American Megatrends Core Version: 4.6.4.0 Compliency: UEFI 2.0 BIOS Version: Lucid-MWE-0125 Build Date and Time: 09/03/2010 18.17 EC Version: 000915

Got a similar Slate last month, running Meego instead of W7 called the Wetab. Has anyone managed to backup the bios though? I got a message: Error: BIOS is write-protected (AFUDOS tool) Was planning to check if i could patch anything, but because of this i couldn't. So, if you have any idea how to disable or circumvent this protection.. Or maybe an official bios and tool to flash? I couldn't find a BIOS jumper on your pics and it's not a setting in the BIOS setup..
