Thanks for the info, I wasn't expecting Lenovo to update the BIOS of such "old" models so I never checked their site again :? Seems the following was added

Code: Select all

CHANGES IN THIS RELEASE
  Version 2.30-1.08

[Important updates]
  Nothing.

[New functions or enhancements]
- Added support for the new Conexant audio chip.

[Problem fixes]
  Nothing.
Now I guess those that have installed Middleton's modded BIOS will need to re-apply it again after this upgrade, right?

No, Middleton doesn't deem it relevant enough to make a new BIOS.
Stick with what you have.
That was only some sound for the modem that is hardly used any more nowadays.

Can we be sure that nothing else was added?
I was a little puzzled by
"BIOS: BIOS version
ECP: Embedded Controller Program version
[Important] Important update
(New) New function or enhancement
(Fix) Correction to existing function"

I get a lot of errors pertaining to the embedded controller in event viewer.
Anyone tried flashing the new bios?
