BIOS Updates forum

Hello lads. Iv'e been playing with the amibcp program ( dos version ) booted with a floppy & playing with the settings locked away in some of the bios's with no problems at all, but I dont trust floppies much, & had a go at using the Windows version of the program.. The problem i'm up against at the...

The other method I would sometimes try if I were too lazy to pull the chip & use my programmer, was to use the flash program specifically made for the chip called 28F001.exe & or 28f001A.exe. I found them along with other flash programs on a sight that said they were for triton chipsets, ( from memo...

I have the latest release from MSI if thats any help, Vers 2.0,

the bios.

In fact, I have 9 bios's for this one all up, from vers 1.0 to 2.0. LMK

Iv'e been archiving MoBo ftp's now for about 6 years & have 9 DVD's & numerous CD's full of bios/m...

I dug out the DVD collection of Bios's saved over time, & found I have 4 bios updates for this board... 020311s.zip 020620s.zip 020809s.zip 020823S.zip I started archiving Bios's from most MoBo ftp's a few years ago when I started noticing some were no longer hosting older Soc3, P1 & 2 systems any m...

Hey, i'm not sure if it applies here,, but would running uniflash with the -unlock command, eg: "uniflash -unlock" have been the way around this boot block lock problem..? Iv'e had chips in the past where the last 2 blocks wouldn't write until I unlocked them 1st... Damn I love uniflash,, it's the n...

Hi, Would appreciate if anyone could guide me on how to do this? Do I simply pull one BIOS chip while the comp is on and replace it with the faulty one and flash it?? Would be great if i could get a speedy response as i the comp opened up and ready to go Thanks in advance Zed Before I owned a progr...

can somebody tell me where can i download a manual for my mb726. my AT power supply was recently broken and i have another ATX power supply, however i dont know how will i connect the power button of the ATX casing thats why i really need it. Thanks in advance. The PC-Chips US sight still host both...

So we know he is trying to flash a 512kb { 4mb } file to a chip, maybe you should tell us what the numbers/letters say on the top of the chip your trying to program. I'ts not unusual for the same model board to have either a 256k or a 512k chip. I've seen a lot of MoBo sights host upgrades stating t...

I was of the opinion that the comcrap & HP computers could be flashed by switching the switch 1 to on & the bios update on the floppy left in the drive, it just ran without the graphics & beeped so many times when the flash was done. Been a while but i'm sure I bought one back to life that way when ...

I appreciate your suggestions my friend... I tried 11 different BIOSes for my board from ABIT's website...All of them gave my a bad flash with Uniflash...I flash through BootBlock...Sometimes I got one red square,othertimes 3 to 4... It's very strange to have damage my chip only by a bad flash and ...

I think the question really is where did you get the ver 1.3 MS6161 BIOS from? I just looked under the downloads section of the Australian MSI web site and could only find latest ver 1.2. Maybe a ver 1.3 was at one stage available from MSI and withdrawn by MSI because of a problem MSI was having wi...

BIOS sent. What MS-6161 BIOS? I don't see it anywhere. Well . whenever you posted you had 3 links within the post & one of the links was to the beta bios page, on that page you had a download to the Microstar MS6161 version 1.2 bios that you fixed to detect larger hard- drives & run the drive at dm...

I also have a similar problem, basically it asks me to insert a disk with AWDFLASH.exe. I tried several different utilities including the one's from chaintechs site for my board. It would load the utility but not be able to find the bin file. I tried this utility that dos-freak came up with, made a...
