Computer wont start. Wrong BIOS. Anyway to program right one
Posted: Sat Jul 19, 2008 3:58 pm
Hello all
I have a Gigabyte GA-M57SLI-S4 motherboard. I had some issues with the BIOS, so I decided to update it. BUT, I looked at the wrong version on the site, messing up my whole system. Now when I turn on the PC, nothing happens. The screen power light flashes as the computer is not on. I read on the web that I could reset the motherboard BIOS by taking out the battery. Did that, nothing happens. I also got a jumper and placed it on the CLR_CMOS to short the two pins. Turn on the PC with them, nothing still happens.
Dont know where to go now. Is the motherboard forever dead to me?
Well I have searched online, and I have found this:
Is there a possible way that I could write the commands? Anyone know of any?

Well I have searched online, and I have found this:
I have installed a "wrong" bios on my X800pro, - and I can "Not" boot on floppy now - Again, I can "not" boot on floppy ?
Normaly, when you have a "wrong" bios in the card, you can not see anything on the monitor/tv - but, you can always boot on floppy, and then reinstalling the bios to "backup.bin" - Well ofcourse, you have to know the commands (I do) because you dont have a monitor to guide yoy!
