So, a couple days ago I flashed a custom BIOS on to my new computer. This turned out to be a huge mistake because I noticed a severe loss in performance afterwards. So, I decided that I would flash the old BIOS I had by using the tool provided by Lenovo which can be found here.

However, it turned out I couldn't use that tool because the InsydeFlash utility thinks the current BIOS is a newer version and for some reason refuses to downgrade. I get an error that says "The version of rom file isn't newer than version of bios." Editing the .ini file included with the InsydeFlash utility didn't seem to help.

The modified BIOS I used can be found here.

Help? :??:
