BIOS Updates forum

I have not flashed my bios. But my friend came by with his thoroughbred and we plugged it in. It worked! The cpu name could not be recognized, but the freq. was displayed correctly and I even overclocked the thing. Going to ored a new thorton for sure. Shooting for a 2 Ghz cpu. This xp2000 went up t...

I ran the tool and it worked away on my bios. I ran the /m manual option. It was nice to select what options to go with. I read somewhere not to run options that were half-assed. I did this three times accessing different options with each bios. One bios I ran everything that came up. The second I r...

I was confused. I did have this file. But when I looked at the .txt included: Microcodes (only "real" - without "engeneering samples"). XXX-YY-Z XXX - CPUID YY - version of microcode Z - "P" = "Socket"-package 63x-6Bx - Pentium II / Pentium III F0x-F2x - Pentium 4 I assumed it was a microcode only f...

I will search for this reall.cod file and put it into myC:\ test folder. I am assuming that this can be done in XP command-prompt. Yes my bios is normal. I found it quite frustrating that I could not access or see certain things that were either grayed out, or not there at all. I have the same bios ...

"The system cannot find the path specified" is the message I am getting. I created a folder in the root of C: Loaded the patcher, lha.exe, cbrom.exe, and a copy of my bios into the new folder Went into my command prompt (from windows XP) and attempted to patch my bios. I get different erros like fil...

I apologize for not fully understanding the term "normal" Do you mean an un-modded bios? If you do then I cannot say for sure if it is. The reason is due to current bios being supplied by a German site, via an online user with my exact board. I can only assume that this bios is "normal" because of i...

I beleive it just may be. It is older. From around 02/02. I dont believe the newer AMD XP's were out then. I just need to access my config to check if the strings need updating.

Yes The hardware limitation I can fix. According to MSI, this board can un-officially support higher end processors. The catch is to remove a capacitor, and update the bios. My only problem is with the bios. They support AMI. I have Award. So if anyone can refer me to the correct documentation, tuto...

Award BIOS W6380AA V3.5B3 012902 I understand that this board does not support the thoroughbred 0.13 process cpu's. I am only inquiring because there is a post on MSI forums concerning my board and a mod to get 0.13 support. Unfortunately this is for pure K7T Pro-266 Ver.2 MSI boards, and not my Ver...

I did have the German site saved, here it is

Hello, this is my first post. I bought an older MSI m-board from ebay. It is the K7T/266 Pro-2 Ver.3 This board is not supported by MSI, but I found a third-party vendor that did, somewhat. http://www.premiopc.com/discontinued/support/faq/k266.html I inquired with them about cpu support. They state ...
