Chaintech 6BTM Bios Upgrade needed
Posted: Sat Jun 08, 2002 6:57 pm
Hi,
I'm looking for a more recent Flash bios upgrade than my current one which is 8/17/00
BIOS Date: 08/17/00
BIOS Type: Award Modular BIOS v4.51PG
BIOS ID: 08/17/2000-i440BX-W977TF-2A69KC39C
BIOS Eval: 08/17/2000
Chipset: Intel 440BX/ZX rev 2
Superio: Winbond 977TF rev 0 found at port 3F0h
Im specifically having problems with a new AGP graphics card (geforce2MX400), and i have been advised to set the BIOS to run the card at 2X agp, thus forcing WinXPPro to do the same - at the moment when i enable the card the system crashes and i have been told thats because winXP is defaulting to 4X AGP. The card is apparently able to be run at 2X, but there is no option in the BIOS to change this. Any other suggestions to sorlve the problem would be greatly appreciated - otherwise its back to the shop for a refund!
Cheers in advance all!
