Thanx a lot ajzchips for your fast reply and for link! I have just one guestion,becouse I never flash this type of motherboard.I read some stuff in this forum,but I like to be shure,if I'am fail the board will be dead

Which utils do I need for this exe and how can I upgrade correct?

Can I use uniflash 1.33 for my board?


Sorry for this guestion,but I do one mistake in bios a few years ago

Thank you!

Hi ajzchips!

I miss your post when you try to help some other guys:

Double click on the file. It'll either create a bootdisk for you, or decompress some files into a directory of your choice.
If the latter case, then create a boot disk and copy the files onto it.

I have bootup diskete now,so I try to update my bios !I hope everithing will be fine

Thanx again for your help ajzchips and take care!

ajzchips, I have sucesfull update the bios and work nice!
When I flash the bios and restart computer I load bios defoult.In this computer I have instaled windows me now and I have only one problem.
When I choose shut down the computer only restart and never shut down.

I think I must set some funkcion in bios,but I don't know which one.
Can you help me again?

Windows ME? Are both ACPI and APM enabled? Did Windows ME install as ACPI? (Check your Windows Device Manager).

This guestion to seem is not linking to bios problem,so I just like to Thank you again ajzchips for help find update bios!

You are really nice man,take care!

Those shutdown-reboots are very frequently bios-related, so I wouldn't give up yet.

I still have this problem,do you have any sugestion?

as XP stresses your memory much more. if something is wrong it will show up rightaway...

When I'am in safe mode and turn computer off I have no problem and the computer turn off sucesfull,but in normal mode just restart,maybae something wrong with windows......?

does exist any programme to copy all bios settings?

Today I just install windows xp in this computer and I must say that everithing work well now-even shut down

so,I just like to thanx ajzchips again for correct update file!

Take care and I hope I see you again!

Cheers!
