Medion Akoya E7220 Bios update

I need to update the BIOS. MSN: 30012740 says "Bios Update Notebook MEDION AKOYA E722x/P762x Version: 3.03," but when I try to install it, it complains about incompatibility.
Currently installed:
BIOS Version 202
VBIOS Version 2108.0I110040.07
EC Version 5300000T56
ME FV Version 7.0.10.1203
Board Version = MEDION - 1

Currently, there's a problem with Windows 8, 8.1, 10, and 11. When booting, I get a black screen. If I close the laptop, put it to sleep, and then reopen it, the image appears and everything works until the next reboot. No problems on Windows 7.

I installed Windows 8, but this did not solve the problem, still when I try to update, the installer complains that the version is not compatible!

Where can I get the correct BIOS update that's 100% compatible with this laptop? Since Windows 7 is no longer functional, I'd like to at least be able to use Windows 10 normally, without the black screen and constant sleep issues!

Hi
I can not follow. Your text is irritating, First it is a fault in Win7, 8.1 and Win 10  then you say the problem occurs only in Win 7 ?

--> https://www.medion.com/de/service/product-detail/30012740

On the Service Page it is said, the Bios is meant for Pc's with Win 8 installed only. 
This means you must have Win 8 installed already, and start the Bios update in Win 8 only.
Do you have a license  for Win8 or Win 10?
Spoiler
So please correct your text and bring it in logical order, 

1.  Can you install Win 8 ?
2. What did you do until now? In which Win  Version are you on, and under  which Windows version did you try the update ? 


Bye, daddle

Edirt. What 's wrong with the Editor? I never did activate spoilers.

Problem solved.
I forced BIOS 303 through DOS using the command "aflash3 A17MD.303 /force." The BIOS flashed successfully, and the black screen issue is now gone!

That is good to hear.   But I wonder: Where did you get the bios file {A17MD.303}?

The download on the service page offers the  archiv bioe722x_p762x.exe; after decompressing you get an exe file only { bio_e7219_e7220_p7621_p7622.303.exe } which you can not decompress any further, at least not me.

Could you please tell me how you did it, or where you got the A17MD.303?

 

Regards, daddle
