BIOS Updates forum

10/11/2000 and 101100 mean the same - the date the BIOS was created, usually in American format (11th October 2000). It had to be tested and therefore may not have been released or loaded onto the website until 2001.
The i440BX is the chipset, the W977 is the Winbond Super I/O chip and the ...

A is hexadecimal for 10. The ID from that BIOS is:
10/11/2000-i440BX-W977-2A69KM4KC-00
and the message is:
W6163MJ V3.10 101100
You have successfully installed the latest BIOS.

hi
a friend has a PIII with a MSI 6163 pro m/board
it has an old bios from 1999
they have just backed up the pc and wiped the HD and want to install XP
but it won't boot off the cd
it seems that a new bios will help
