BIOS Updates forum

I need a driver for windows xp, i need it for fixing the screens resolution. it shows sort of puffy.

Does anyone have the driver for the Cirrus Logic 5446 Compatible Graphics adapter?

But i have noticed something in the system properties, it says that the processor is running at 496MHz when it should be running at 500MHz, is this regular?

When I set my BIOS up to use PCI/PNP functioning, the BIOS remembers, but if i turn the computer off and leave it overnight or just for one hour, the BIOS resets it self and the PCI/PNP functioning is set to no when it should be yes. Could it be that i have a empty CMOS battery?

Okay, now i am 100% shure it is my harddrive, I took out the AMD K6-2 and left the computer to cool off for 7 hours. When the 7 hours were up, i put the Intel MMX processor and turned on the computer. I left the computer idle with no programs running for 2 hours, and when i opened up the case (while...

When i said windows was crashing i meant it was freezing, i made a mistake.

Okay, now windows is again crashing on me. I bought the heatsink with the fan, but now i have been looking at the harddrive and it seems to get hot when i use the AMD processor, but when i use the Intel processor the harddrive seems to be cool. Could it be the harddrive that is making my computer cr...

Looks very much like an IRQ problem - mark the IRQ required by your card as ISA (instead of PCI/PnP) in the motherboard Bios I did switch over to the ISA legacy setting, but still it does not work. But could it be the excessive heat coming from my AMD K6-2 processor? If it could have been the heat,...

I am using Windows XP Professional SP 1

I have an ESS Plug and Play Audio Drive and the chip model is ES1868. It uses an ISA slot. When windows starts or when i try to play a cd, the sound keeps on repeating it self. I have updated the drivers from: http://www.esstech.com/techsupp/drivers.shtm#isa, but sill it does not work. what could be...

Okay, it looks like windows was the problem. When i reformatted the harddrive, the computer stopped crashing.

I have switched back to my old Intel MMX processor (that never crashed my computer before), and the results are the same. I have used the western digital diagnostics floppy disk, and ran the exended drive test but no errors were found on the harddrive. I am thinking it may be windows XP itself. Coul...

I have an AMD K6-2 running at 500 MHz, and my BIOS dosent have the option to read the temperature of the CPU.

When my computer boots up, the first boot works fine, but then after i reboot it a second time, windows xp crashes. I am thinking it is my processor because, when i put my hand on the case, it is warm (but it is usually cool). When I open up my computers case, the heat sink it extremely hot. I have ...

The 3 cards are all assigned to IRQ #5. Do you know how I can assign the 3 cards to their own IRQ?
