BIOS

Just wanted to let everyone know I received the chip a few days ago but will have to wait until tomorrow to get it installed. I couldn't find a center that wanted to do this.

Besides attempting the flash again I still have to stick that thing in the socket. I'm hesitant and although the computer is 5-1/2 years old it works just fine but I think things mig...

Thanks. I'll download and give it another try.

I've downloaded and extracted the file and was wondering is there anything else I need to add. The reason I ask is because the file from esupport showed a few files like an autoexec, bflash, in addition to the .bin file.

BIOS file

I purchased a BIOS file from esupport.com for an A-Trend ATC-6240. The file sent to me was 2A69KA2B.bin. It didn't work and of course the pc isn't booting. In the course of running the program I got a message referencing the size of the files were or were not the same. I just continued with the flas...
