Re: bios error update acer aspire 5742zg

If you can't find a recovery solution, you have to re-write next BIOS flashrom. (Open bottom cover and find it) http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/4977/t650.jpg Chip looks like a Winbond W25Q32 or W25X32. Many programmer supports them. (Your BIOS file is "...\BIOS_Acer_1.30_Windows\DOS\PEW71x64.fd".) ...

Re: Computer still not woking

SST 49LF040 and SST 49LF040B is fully compatible flashrom. So, if new 49LF040B was writed with a correct BIOS, the motherboard must work. Sometimes socket and flashrom pins shape can be changed or polluted. And it can make pin-contact bad. Check first these. And did you request the 49LF040B with cor...

Re: ACER Aspire 1600LM Bios Dead

A BIOS is stored to a device it is called FLASHROM on motherboard. So, you can fix the BIOS by rewriting the FLASHROM. And you need a device that can rewrite a flashrom externally. The device is called 'flashrom programmer'. So, If you have enough tools and flashrom programmer that is compatible wit...

Re: Gateway profile 5 bios flash gone wrong

Pull-out the jumper. (not 1-2 or 2-3) Then, retry update with floppy. I recently replaced an original pata HD in a profile 5 with a 250Gb SATA. The machine only recognized the new drive as 128Gb so I decided to flash to the latest version of the BIOS to see if that would help. BIG MISTAKE..... the m...

Microcode update is not BIOS execution code or CPU detection data.
You must modify a execution code of CPU detection and initialization.

Re: Packard Bell EASYNOTE R0900 bios

Look for a BIOS flashrom.
If you can't find a flashrom easily, there is no way.

Check your floppy drive. If floppy drive doesn't work(rotate with noise and flashing a front LED), this BIOS doesn't support recovery mode. And K8 are useing a LPC flashrom And LPC flashrom is little unique. Check your flashrom model name. It may be one of 49LFxxx, 39Vxxx or 49Vxxx. They don't have ...

Re: Hot flash 512Kb bios by motherboards that support max 25

You have to understand about address translation of ISA interface. And Gigabyte GA-7VAX1394-A doesn't have visible ISA pinout(=a18 pin). So you can't use this M/B. And uniflash will erase all data in 39SF040 before write. So, previous programming part will be erase. You can resolve the error with pu...
