I have a system with a Biostar motherbord and following info:
Board/bios version is VBE-A 1118A.
The Award ID String is: 11/18/1999-693A-596-8671-2A6LGB09C-00

After upgrading the BIOS with awdflash VBE1118A.BIN my system is totally dead. I got the bin file from Wim's BIOS. :?:
I needed the update for a bigger hard disk.
I checked already the powersupply and the CMOS battery but still the system is dead. :roll:
If sombody has an (the) sollution thanks in advance.

Looks like you have upgraded to the same BIOS version.

You can't upgrade to the same level.
Your suggestion doesn't work, I tried already.
Now the system is dead so I can't run updates.
Maybe you have an other hint

Try clearing the CMOS.
