New Graphics card, can't get it to work
I just purchased a new graphics card. I have a Lenovo Y710 Laptop. It came with an ATI radeon HD 2300 and I got an ATI radeon HD 4550. I was eager and stupid and didn't install any drivers or update the BIOS. swapped out the cards and it didn't work. so i switched back. I got the drivers installed but now i can't get the BIOS updated. I'm trying to update to 08ET33WW which I got from the Lenovo website. Lenovo says to right click on the file and open as administrator. That didn't work, I get "open flash.sys fail" so i go to Google and see that i need to extract and try again...same problem. back to Google and it says to make a bootable CD with DOS on it and try from there. with both the extracted and not extracted files i get "must be opened under win32" and "cannot be opened in DOS" I'm clueless. Help!....I will give more info if needed. Thanks a bunch
