Do you have a recovery disc of the laptop?

A BIOS update could cause more problems for you and I doubt very much it is the cause of the blue screens. Have you been playing with the settings in the BIOS? You may have entered some incorrect parameters. I suggest you return the settings to their default and try installing Windows again. Failing that, remove the CMOS battery for 5 minutes and try again.

When does the computer freeze during installation? At the beginning (the DOS-like interface where you can partition the disk), or during the rest of the installation (where the mouse pointer is available)? I had this problem with an Acer Aspire 1350 when attempting to install windows 2000.
