Downgrade BIOS

Is there a way to downgrade the BIOS. Having some issues with the latest 1.24.

Basically the SL400 will not turn off (shutdown, sleep or hibernate). It executes a restart instead of a shutdown. Have ruled out OS (tried with a Acronis boot disk, recovery OS install with no updates), am looking basically at either hardware or BIOS.

The readme for the BIOS indicates that you are unable to downgrade.

Have tried to look around the ISO files with winhex to perhaps make a custom image that will downgrade to the prior release. However a bit out of my league in creating a custom firmware.

TIA..
