I suspect this may be a PcChips M715 board, although the BIOS date seems too old. Check the image at the following link to see if this looks like your board:

Also, you can go to the following link and select the “Start your journey here if you DO NOT KNOW which board you own!” link to determine which may be your board:

M715 is impossible as your Board uses a VIA Chipset .

Thanks for steering aggiy2k to the correct link Denniss. I knew it was a Via chipset but didn't pay attention to the image of the M715. Oh well, all's well that ends well........ :oops: :) :)

Either will be alright, though alot of people would tell you to use other boot disks to be sure. I have never had a problem with a Windows 98SE boot disk while flashing a BIOS.

All PC Chips BIOSes are at ajzchips' page http://go.to/ajz

aggiy2k: Check the manual if there's flash write protect jumper. Try different amiflash version. You can also try UniFlash - at your own risk.
Patched and tested BIOSes are at http://wims.rainbow-software.org
UniFlash - Flash anything anywhere
