Phoenix Bios for Sony Vaio
Posted: Wed Jun 08, 2005 8:20 pm
I have a Sony Vaio PCG-747 (Pentium 266MMX, 128MB RAM). It has the following info about the BIOS:
Phoenix 4.0 Release 6.0
Version R0202S3
I'm having shutdown problems with Win98SE (it hangs at the Windows is Shutting Down screen) so I've been following this great advice for troubleshooting:
http://aumha.org/win4/a/shtdwnse.htm
Nothing there works, other than renaming BIOS.VXD to BIOS.OLD. Then it shuts down. The troubleshooting guide suggests that this could be resolved by updating the BIOS but I can find nothing about what BIOS I need, or how to go about doing it if I did.
Can anyone help with this?
Many thanks
