Nope all going to end up in tears sony have locked out the advanced bios setting so no chance, and no there is no bios updates currently available tried ami web site sent them email which they replied saying bios version is latest.... boo hoo

Being locked out is one.........irritating.........'feature'.

It's damage limitation on Sony's part, annoying I know.

I wish I had known about all this before buying it...I mean I could have got a slightly better spec machine for the same price...so if we pay a premium for the machine and then you can't upgrade it or change BIOS settings...then what's the point to buying a Sony...don't think I'll bother with these again...I feel like I've been done.

I still believe their desktops are not the best around, although the RA is very impressive imho.
