Is there any bios update for janese model ux91ns?

[MeanSquare]

I installed the latest BIOS update from Jap site. Does it is more recent than it? Really you can use it for the UX91s?

[MeanSquare]

One of the oddities about the way Sony does things is that they re-package the BIOS and drivers as though they are specifically for each UX model. In fact any BIOS can be used on any model in the UX series and and driver (except the cellular modem driver which, of course, is just for UX models with the cellular modem) can also be used on any model in the UX series.

In order to install drivers or BIOS packaged for another model, you need to use the model.txt trick, which you can find on this forum by using the search function.
