    Installed windows, went back to chrome, cant get updates

    Basically what the title says, I don't exactly remember how I got chrome back on, I downloaded the mario-x86 iso and put it in a flash drive to install, the custom bios is still on there so the dev switch doesnt do anything. Anyway I check for updates and it says that its up to date even though its many versions behind (says im on 12.0.742.105)

    Might help to know that I deleted the 12 or so partitions (the ones that make the dev switch work) so I basically have no idea if I can get this thing back or not unless someone has a complete image of the SSD for me to download.

    Any ideas?

    You won't be able to run Chrome OS updates if you have the InsydeH2O BIOS installed.

    You can boot Ubuntu from a USB drive, install Flashrom and then follow this guide to restore the stock Cr-48 BIOS:

    http://cr-48.wikispaces.com/Flash+BIOS#restore


    You can then just do a normal Chrome OS restore by following the guide here:

    Feel free to email me at cr48wikispaces@gmail.com if you encounter any trouble with this.
