That shows on Google as Procomp B680 motherboard. Is the PCB V2.1 or is it earlier ? Look for markings on the board.

That's OK, it doesn't support large disks. If you're happy to try it out, get it from the link here - it's the 256KB version, in brackets.
[edit]Rainbow got there first.... we should have a scheme. I didn't see you browsing the forum, Ondrej.

Use another version of Awdflash (7.xx) or try UniFlash.
The BIOS I sent you is like the latest official one:
12/17/1999-i440BX-W977TF-2A69KPNJC-00
B683/B680 2MB BIOS Ver:2.6

Sorry, the ftp timed out and reconnected to the root directory. I did say the 256K file.... it's there now if you have email problems.

I download file Procomp B680/B683 256K.zip ( yesterday file B680 128K.zip) and another flash bios ver. 7.21 ( yesterday i use ver. 7.73 ).
Everything is working good now, when i turn pc on it show i440BX-W977TF-2A69KPNJC-00 2MB Bios Ver. 2.6 with patched 128HD.
Thanks for you helps, Nicks and Rainbow.
