Hi All,
I tried to upgrade my BIOS using the latest version of ASUS
Update on Vista x64 system. The first try erased present BIOS and
flashed 100%. The checksum verification failed at 0% as seemed unable
to read from motherboard. The status screen instructions said to try
again. So I tried again and erase said 100% but nothing else
happened. No matter how many times I clicked. On re-boot motherboard
is dead. PS and fans come on but nothing else happens.
Anyone have any ideas?
Sorry, but my P5B-Plus has no socketed chips at all, BIOS or otherwise
(except the CPU, of course). This was one of the first things I noticed
when installing it.
The manual does not point out, or otherwise give any information, as to
the whereabouts of the BIOS IC.
Paul would be more knowledgeable about the specifics, as he has already
provided helpful, detailed info regarding possible BIOS ICs.
I did update the original BIOS to 0804 with some difficulty using a
floppy. I was able to complete the flash using EZ Flash2 and, if I
recall, a USB flash drive.
