can you please post the BIOS ID shown on the bottom of the startup screen?

did you download a somewhat recent version of awdflash? you can try uniflash instead. you can try awdflash without switches, too. just append the filename. and if you still want to use awdflash: please post the exact error message.

which OS are you going to use? if you're going to use Windows 2000/XP/Vista or Linux you don't need a BIOS update. just set the clip jumper on the HDD and install the OS within the BIOS-known space. the rest of the HDD can be accessed once the OS is loaded because those modern OS ignore the hdd settings of the BIOS anyway.
If you email me include [WIMSBIOS] in the subject.
