Good day everyone,
I just recently have been experiencing some serious system instabillity ( freezing up allot) and after updating windows, video, sound etc. I am left to beleive my BIOS may be part of the problem. I just recently installed a Radeon 9000 All in Wonder Video card and I suspect its causing the problems. So I proceeded over to Intel to DL a new version of BIOS only to discover the only update available on their site was a generic patch from 2000, and understandibly didnt have any XP support which is what i am running. Nonetheless I DLed the patch read the readme.txt and followed it very carefully and all I could get it to do was give me a command prompt at A: drive. Any help or advice would be monumentally appreciated here are some system specs Intel P3 600 MHZ MMX, 640 megs of RAM, Win XP SP1a, Intel Motherboard SE44OBX-2, version AA719944-213 ( BIOS is from 99 I beleive).
