.....with the Award Bios Flash 8.23K .
the flash stopped at the Verifying Flash Memory 1FE00 OK
I think I may have missed a Switch , but I could not understand all the switches .
2 sectors did not update , the message was No Update .
I switched off the computer and cleared the Cmos and booted up to get a High pitched long beep and 2 short beeps and that means No Video . I tried another monitor and got the same beeps so I think the video card got ......
Could this be why the Power On LED is Red from power on ?
and after the high pitched beeps there are two low deep beeps .
From the beeps I think the bios updated because I think I've read those beeps are in the updated Bios , but I don't get to see the Setup screen yet .

Sounds like the Boot Block wasn't overwritten during the flash update (lucky you :) ).

Do you've already tried recovering the BIOS by using the Boot Block?
