Top link wont work i cant get into windows to run command prompt because it never boots the bios. Although the bottom link is the one i am going to try. If it doesnt work looks like i may have to go somewhere that has the tools and have them pull the chipset and flash it that way.
Edit - was reading that windows 8 has a way to bypass the acpi bios and launch under a different boot method and i can see said boot method on my laptop while looking at my bios settings but the settings wont save and it still tries to boot through the acpi bios which causes the startup loop.
