Hello.

I first had the problem of "insufficient memory", but after loading optimized defaults and disabling all caching I got the Awdflash to try. However, whenever I enter the *.bin filename, flasher asks if I want to backup or not. Before I have time to answer, the computer reboots itself! The computer is working fine afterwards, but the BIOS has not been updated.

What to do?

WinXP Pro
AMD Athlon XP 2200+
Epox 8K9A
------------
Awdflash 8.33
8k9a4813.bin
------------

Do you use a clear boot-floppy or a standard Windoze boot-Floppy with a lot of programs running ?
-> Get the drdflash.exe from www.bootdisk.com (Disk for Bios-Flashing) and run it to create a driver-free boot-floppy
