BIOS FLASH WRITE PROTECTION HOW TO DISABLE IT?
Posted: Tue Oct 12, 2004 12:18 am
thanks in advance for reading this post and for any reply or help
i have a msi 845 pro and i made a mistake by reseting de bios putting the jumper in resenting mode with the main power on so
i have corrupted the information of my bios and it stops at the initialization of the keyboard controller "i know this cause
the motherboard has 4 leds indicating problems in the POST.
Now a have another pc matsonic ms8308ep(266)so i start it with a DOS diskete then i remove the bios from it and replace for
the msi 845 pro bios to make the flash but...i cant flash it cause by default the msi 845 pro bios is write protected.
can you guys help me with this? to bypass this write protection?
i´m using these tools:
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/b ... =89&kind=1
i tryed with all the releases, but almost at the end of the rom loading it stops and says: flash rom erasing error
2 of the names of the images im trying to load to the bios are:1st realease "A6529IMS.100" latest release "A6529IMS.130"
i´m only asking for a flag or parameter to put after "amifl827.exe" or if you can give a link to some manual or tutorial to
help me in this crusade
or a program that gives me access from dos or windows to the cmos of the bios to disable the flash write protection "like
winbios http://english.aopen.com.tw/tech/techinside/WinBIOS.htm " i dont have winbios so i dont know if it works with my
boards
ps-both boards have amibios
waiting eagerly for any answer if possible
