Find the right Flasher and Data File

by **pittos34** » Wed Apr 09, 2003 2:46 pm

Hello,

I need to obtain the correct award flasher (awdflash?.bin) and data file (BIOS?.bin) to flash my PC's BIOS.

This PC is build by ELONEX and based on a MS-5156 MotherBoard(Intel 430 Chipset), with AMDK6-2/300 and running Win98 (a power failure occured while I was configuring Setup. Now my PC only wants to boot on floppy searching for the awdflash*.bin into the autoexec.bat ... I hope!)

The only BIOS infos I obtained (what is writen on the BIOS Chip under the sticker): Winbonb W29EE011-15 7380J2729213034G
My MotherBoard : MS-5156 (Intel 430TX Chipset)

Who can help me, telling me where I can obtain theses infos?

Thank you for all and have a nice day!

Charles

I explored all the sites linked with yourth.

I found my BIOS number (2A59IM4C) :
- 2A59I Intel Triton TX chipset (Socket 7 based m/b)
- M4 Micro-star

but in the list for intel triton TX Chipset (and also in the whole list), I don't find my 2A59IM4C ...

So, I go to the manufacturer site (Micro-star) and I don't find it too, on all sites in all langages ...!

I found the right BIOS and Flash Programs "awdfl535" and "W556ms14.bin" at : http://www.elonex.co.uk

I flashed my PC's BIOS and it runs again!

Thank You,
Charles
