Bad Bios Flash
Posted: Wed Jul 24, 2002 11:50 pm
I have flashed my bios and now the power goes on for a second then off.
Motherboard is ASUS P2B Rev 1.10. I think it is fried until it can be reprogrammed.
I flashed if with P2B-F Bios bx2f113a and ignored the warning that the model type was different. Books and all documentation said P2B-F except the stamp on the board itself.
I backed up the BIOS at flash time.
I also have a P3B-F board with a 440-BX chipset same as the P2B is it possible to boot the P3B-F system up with its original BIOS into dos. Then remove the good P3B-F BIOS chip while the machine is up and replace it with the bad P2B bios chip and then flash the bad bios with the backed up bios. Then do the a switch.
Is this possible or am I dreaming in technicolor.
Regards Mark
