Hi there, I receive a bootblock error on an HIS apollo 133 series mother board but I cant find the bios file on their website. I have tried to send them an email bt they still haven't responded. Any of you guys have a copy of this bios information? any info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance

I am not sure, but the product number is (p/n) 183-27004x0-hv

It is a socket 370 motherboard with a winbond w49f002u-12b chip.

Good. Getting simpler now.
Last question: is your mobo AT, ATX or MicroATX?
Click on the links to see a picture of each type. Your board should be one of the three.
