pogeman1000/at/gmail/dot/com. Thanks man. :) GFX = graphics card btw. How did you upgrade your graphics card in your 600e? In the 600x there is a dock on the bottom of the mainboard where you can put one, its not on the 600e though. :-\ You'll need a special graphics card for it too. i tried 3 time...

Thanks dude. I have the floppy drive that came with my 600e, and I've flashed my bios with it before, so it should work for flashing the firmware. Thanks for your help. Also, if you dont like your 600x, I'd be willing to made a trade, 600e for 600x. I'd pay shipping, and you get the p3 500. I just ...

8O this is not security password issue as the machine is fully functional however some boring moron decided to implement a password for the bios setup menu which prevents me from shifting irqs ,altering power mangment settings etc etc,seens that this is not locked i am certains theres a way to rid t...

correct standards(boring morons)
