That 5.0 vs. 5.5 thing was my usual "copy and paste then forget to change everything" mistake. Yeah, I noticed that right away... ;) Sorry to hear about your CPU "mispurchase", the one you have now will not make a big difference. The K6plus is the way to go, and since you are still shopping for one...

LSnapp, thank you for the kind words. All we really need now is this BIOS update, and we'd be really happy, right Doug and Elton? As far as your CPU upgrade is concerned, you were actually supposed to change some dip-switch settings on your motgherboard in order to be able to run your new K6plus. Fi...

Well, that's a very poor attitude. They wrote the proprietary Toshiba BIOS, presumably for money. Why wouldn't they be willing to write another? or just make the small changes necessary to make entering the CMOS settings more than an exercise in futility. Doug, since you seem to know them and their...

Guys, for those of you looking to help us out, here 's a link to the latest BIOS for our Laptops offered by Toshiba: v1.14. You could contact Award/Phoenix directly for a BIOS patch, but it will cost you. I thought I read somewhere they charged $35 during a special offer. Uranium, thanks for the adv...

BTW...The latest Everest Beta now contains a CPU MSR Dump routine for the K6-series CPU's. This can help you check to see if the CPU is setup properly in your machine. I am not running Windows... :( If I find an extra HDD I will install Windows and try this program, until then I don't know what to ...

Ahh man, that sucks! I would get on SONY's back, it's their fault if their machine won't flash properly if there's a memory upgrade.straun wrote:OK, now that I have already done, and made my laptop unbootable, is there anything I can do to fix this?? I have a FX220 with additional RAM.
Good luck,
Walter

I have the same problem guys. I have (had, I guess) an ECS L7VMM3 rev. 3.0c motherboard. I make the stupid mistake of flashing it with the latest BIOS for the 1.0c version because ECS' website is poorly designed. The mobo is now dead, won't post. I am thinking of sending the chip to badflash.com to ...

Visit link . Dear KachiWachi, I appreciate your advice however I know Jan's page by memory and although his patched BIOSes have helped me a lot in the past with Super Socket 7 motherboards, in this case it is not going to help me for the simple reason that I am working on a Laptop and Jan's page de...

Proper K6-2/III+ Recognition with Super 7 Toshiba Satellite
Dear WimsBIOS Community, me and a couple of fellow 1605CDS/1625CDT owners may really use your help here. I own a Toshiba Satellite 1605CDS which is equipped with an ALi Chipset and Super Socket 7 platform (Phoenix BIOS). This unit came with a K6-2 450MHz, but there's a row of dip-switches on the mob...
