I entered the following command: ************ flashrom -r a:\intel085.bio -p internal ************ The following is the output that I received: ////////////////////////////////////////////////...

Re: Replaced Gateway BIOS with Vanilla intel-Need to restore

I tried both of these: 'IFlash /sB xxx.BIO' 'IFlash /sR xxx.BIO' Each time I enter the commands, I get the following on the screen: ***************************************** Intel Flash Memory Update U...

Re: Replaced Gateway BIOS with Vanilla intel-Need to restore

What if I was to find another Gateway PC that is running the Intel EV91510A.15A.0123 BIOS? I could then make a copy of the BIOS running on that PC and then apply it to my Gateway 5300S. There are other models of the Gateway PC that are running the Intel EV91510A.15A.0123 BIOS. Here are just a few I ...

Re: Replaced Gateway BIOS with Vanilla intel-Need to restore

edwin,

Please do let me know, one way or the other, if you find it in your email archives. I am really not wanting to pay $100 to Gateway for this one file.


Thanks.

Re: Replaced Gateway BIOS with Vanilla intel-Need to restore

edwin,

Buying a duplicate board, pulling the BIOS off of that board, and then applying it to the non-working board is a much more involved process than I was hoping for.

So, am I stuck with paying $100 for a Answers by Gateway Service Package in order to get the file?


Thanks.

Re: Replaced Gateway BIOS with Vanilla intel-Need to restore

edwin,

Thank you very much for looking. I really hope that you can find it.

If it is not in your email archives, can you think of ANY other place that I can get this BIOS file?


Thanks.

I have spoke with Gateway support and they claim that they have the EV91510A.15A.0123 BIOS file, but they require that I pay $100 for a Answers by Gateway Service Package in order to get the file. They say that they can provide the file, but I will have to pay $100. I have extensively google searche...

Re: Replaced Gateway BIOS with Vanilla intel-Need to restore

I made the same mistake. I have the same problem with my Gateway 5300S with a D915GAG motherboard. I did a BIOS flash upgrade of my Intel EV91510A.15A.0123 BIOS to the Intel EV91510A.86A.0470. Now it works very erratically. I need the original EV91510A.15A.0123 BIOS file to flash it back. In the fol...
