Hi.
I flash the bios of a Gigabyte GA-7VTX motherboard. I restart de computer, the dual-bios system inform me that the main bios is diferent to the backup bios. I restart de computer... Blank screen for ever !!!! I can´t belive it. Wat´s the problem? The flash was ok because the first reboot was ok. Why next boots don´t work? Why Dual-Bios not work?

Thanks a lot

Guillermo

I think you are not alone in having trouble with Dual BIOS. I think I would rather have a jumper to select between the two ROMs.
Have you tried clearing CMOS ?

The BIOS chips are not in sockets ? If not, the only option may be to return it or to take it to a repair shop where they can remove and flash the ROM.
In the manual I see no way of selecting the BIOS once it has died, that is why I said I would prefer a jumper :(
