First check your CPU and memory - CPU is common problem on AMD-based boards.

That´s what I have done.... Change Durom to xp, xp to athlon, but nothing.

Since the BootBlock appear how can I reflash or reprog. the Bios again?

Did you read the FAQ on the main Wim's BIOS site ? If the bootblock flash is not looking at your diskette drive, try to get hold of an ISA diskette or multi-IO controller if your board has an ISA slot. Otherwise you will have to try hot-swap flash or get someone to program your BIOS ROM.
