BIOS Updates forum

Try a bootable floppy with DOS-drivers for your CDROM - every Win98+ bootdisk has these DOD drivers .
-> Should be enough to boot and to install Linux
How can i start the installation from dos?? Linux doesn't have exe files (i think). Can a windows 98 bootdisk automaticly start the setup of linux ...

Ok, the bios is now updated. But nothing (as far as i can see) has changed.
Still can't boot from cdrom :(

But i have found this site: www.esupport.com.
Last 2 months i send 4 emails, but still don't have a response from esupport. :evil:
So my question still remains: where can i find a bios ...

the bios is now being updated, but before 100 % is reached, the computer reset's it self, and the computer can't find the 2 harddisks and the cd-rom anymore

http://www.bootdisk.com/ doesn't exist, can't find/open it

I tried: 44360621.exe, TC44 Level 1/2/3 avec GD5436 21 juin 1996
I get an write protection error. What do i do about it?

Cirrus Logic 5436 PCI, found in windows at collour and resolution settings screen. But the computer doesn't keep the graphics settings after a restart or shutdown.

I found this on the mainboard:

PCA TC44 B21
03-104421-03

Is this information helpful??

i tried this program: TLPINF.EXE from
http://www.ac-grenoble.fr/carmimm/bios.html

?TC44 Level 1/2/3 avec GD5436
?TC44 Level 1/2/3 avec GD5440
?TC44 L4 avec GD5434

Is there a bios update for this type mainbord?

Hi,

sorry if my english sounds bad.
I've got a Pentium 1, 90 MHz. I tried installing Linux, which needs the computer boot from a cd. The BIOS doesn't support that.
I've looked for a update but i can't find one. Here's some information:
