Default Acer TM 800

What's the newest BIOS for the Acer TM 800 serie? Where can I find the
changelog for the BIOS?

ftp://ftp.acer-euro.com/notebook/Tra...s/4a11_win.zip

Previous version was 3a32, this seems a very new one (major version
changed) and was posted on August 14. I believe, changelog should be
inside the ZIP file. There is also version for flashing with DOS utility
(4a11_dos.zip).

Just browse FTP site.

No changelog, but the BIOS worked. I haven't tested if this version fixes
the blurry external VGA and S-Video. Can someone verify if this problem has
been fixed or not?

Did seem to change something with the battery. Bootup after upgrade
flash took a long time and battery light flashed. Now I can't seem to
get to 100%...stuck at 99%. Anyone else notice this?

BIOS upgrade was not directed at the vga output
Acer have sent out new motherboards to fix this problem. These arrived in
NZ last week. My 803 is due to have its new motherboard on Thursday, I will
keep you posted as to whether or not it fixes the vga output.
