After flashing: " cmos checksum error, press F1 to enter setup."
A ter pressing F1, just a blinking cursor
Original bios ID: 52 0110 0014 00101111 071595 00000 001_V90_8670H
New bios id (the one with the checksum error):
52 1222 001437 00101111 071595 000000-001_V98_8670-H
anyway to resolve this ???
nothing works anymore....

That's a CMOS checksum error, not a BIOS checksum error. Try clearing the CMOS, either with a jumper or by removing the battery for a while.

BIOS ID is similar...but not the same.
You sure this was the correct update? What motherboard is it?

Old bios ID: 52 0110 0014 00101111 071595 00000 001_V90_8670H
New bios id: 52 1222 001437 00101111 071595 000000-001_V9
8_8670-H
Is that 8 a typo ?
Have you checked your motherboard against the pictures at the
Pc-Chips Lottery ? " 001_V90_8670H" certainly should be M599 LMR

The V98 is not a typo...
it seems i used the wrong update...
any suggestions how fix this ??
Any idea where i can find the right bios (if this can be fixed..)
Can't find it on the pcchips website... this only states newer boards.
And yes it is the M599
tnx

Where did you find the BIOS with the "V98" ?
[update]BIOS archive at :
ftp://ftp.pcchips.com.tw/BIOS/M599LMR/
I guess your "old" BIOS is 2K0110S.ROM and the "new" one should be 2K1222S.ROM.

I was going to mention also that your "Old BIOS" string seems to be missing a few digits as well...
..Old BIOS ID: 52 0110 0014xx 00101111 071595 00000xx001_V90_8670xH
New BIOS ID: 52 1222 001437 00101111 071595 000000-001_V98_8670-H
Don't know how significant that may be but...
