Hello, i hate to bother anyone i mean i tried to research as much as i can by checking out the forums, search engines and the compaq site.
I found a few bios but i cannot seem to flash my board.
Its an Intel 82810E chipset i know that much, the rom is 512K or 1024K,
Intel(R) 810E Chipset
Intel 82801AA (ICH) I/O Controller
Intergrated Graphics Intel(R) 82819 graphics controller
This info was pulled from the chispet identification utility.
Any ideas guys, i've been wanting to rum linux and i run into a ton of hard drive problems. I've read in some places its caused by int13 (an old setting) that cannot be initialized. I'm sure if i can replace the bios there is a way around this. Well any help is more than appreciated. Thank you for your time.
help request, compaq pressario 5000 (5bwme)

well i guess there is no bios update beyond what i have. I found out the motherboard manufacturer, its a Mitac 6513wu, sold exclusively to compaq it seems. I wonder if its possible to find a compatible more up to date bios and flash it.
thanks ajzchips,ajzchips wrote:ftp://203.66.161.4/pub/
That's Mitac's FTP site. You might be able to find something of interest there.
I've given it a glance but no luck.
