FAQ (Frequently asked questions)

Unsupported Laptops/Notebooks/Netbooks

For pre-2012 laptops, notebooks and netbooks, we recommend to use the vendor flashing utility. The embedded controller (EC) in these machines often interacts badly with flashing, either by blocking all read/write access to the flash chip or by crashing (it may power off the machine or mess with the battery or cause system instability).
