Lucky Star 6ABX2V BIOS problem

Recommended by Wim's BIOS...

It seems, there is problem with "LuckyStar 6ABXV2 128KB" in motherboard name on http://wims.rainbow-software.org/

AFAIK, the name is 6ABX2V.

Unfortunately, I have a problem with this BIOS (not file) on my motherboard : Lucky Star 6ABX2V Ver 1.1

Yes, it can recognize big HDDs now, but... It lost a ability to "fallback" to another drive in booting process. It seems, it can't recognize "No active partition" case.

For example, I set boot order as: "C, A, CROM" . While I have no active partition on C, nor A floppy, nor CDROM, this BIOS hangs forewer e.t.c.

I'm not sure about "original" 9ka6-3 bIOS.

After massive googling, I've found 9ka7-2 bios. This is for another Lucky Star's motherboard model, but it works fine for my 6ABX2V Ver 1.1. Big HDDs works too. One problem is for CPU Cooler & Voltage. I can't see it in BIOS Setup, but it works just fine in Win and Linux (lm_sensor).

If you need, I can send this 9ka7-2 BIOS for you.

Feel free to move this discussion to another forum.

with best regards.

Most probably, it's bug of the original BIOS.

I could not understand your question djmaestri.

Perhaps it you posted in your native language (and told us what that is) it might help with the translation.

Thanks.

http://www.memtest86.com first, if windows 98 crashes during setup 90% is due to bad memory sticks.
