M/B can't sense IDE Drive : ZP-6L1 PII : i440LX-2A69JGECC
Posted: Tue Jun 18, 2002 7:53 am
I have a ZAPPA ZP-6L1 PII 440LX M/B.
Bios ID = 06/01/1998 : i440LX-2A69JGECC-00
BIOS: Award Ver 4.51PG
It's stopped recognizing ANY harddisks (The HD's are being recognized in other M/B's). It recognizes the FDD. The Intel chip set IC's on the M/B get slightly warm, but I'm not sure if that's normal. Before I thrash the M/B, I thought of flashing the BIOS to check if that'll remove the problem. Using awdflash.exe and the bin file I got from the Zappa website, I tried flashing the BIOS. But the Award Flasher says that the "Program File's part No. does not match with your system". It shows the Flash PROM as Winbond W29EE011 /5V, whereas the PROM on the M/B is Winbond W29C011A.
Can you guide me? The Zappa website did not have the bin file for ZP-6L1, so I have downloaded the ZP-6LBP. I can't find a bin file for ZP-6L1 anywhere; I've spent several hours at wimsbios.com, motherboards.org, sysopt.com, without any luck.
Best Regards,
