After I had flashed the bios by winflash v1.79 and restarted the system, it could not boot any more.
Post code indicator shows 41(1 long 2 short then 1 short continous beeps). System booted with backup bios with message "main bios crashed. reflash main bios". When attempting to reflash by awdflash utility it says that flash is write protected but in bios write protect option is turned off. Any attempts of reflash result in restart or hang. I've tried different versions of bios and different reflash programs.
Does anyone know a solution?
also were used awd883, awd893, WinFlash V1.92, Uniflash1.40-1.47, amiflash 895. :cry: help me.
