Another one DEAD after changing the fullscreen logo
Posted: Mon Jul 23, 2007 12:46 pm
Hi,
i have a GVC DL/DR 742 Mainboard with an intel Whitney Chipset. I used uniflash to read my current AMIBIOS, because i wanted to give the PC to a friend as a birthday present and because he is a Sonic fan, i wanted to change the fullscreen logo to say something else. So i did using a tutorial from i-hacked and did it with MS Paint, saved it as a 256 color 640x480 BMP file and converted it to PCX via Irfan View. So far so good. Then i implemented it with Amibcp 7.51.30 (or something like that) Everything worked properly, so i booted from my bootdisk, started uniflash and becuase this was the only option i flashed with bootblock. Worked! But after i rebooted this happened: The floppy goes BRRP and the mainboard peeps one short time, but that all the time *FLOPPY* *BEEP* *FLOPPY* *BEEP* *FLOPPY* *BEEP* and so on. I guess the Amibcp destroyed the rom and now the pc is looking for a recovery disk in the drive.
How did this happen ;_; ???
