Terrible experience in updating bios 1008 in P4P800DX: Pl. HELP!!
That does sound like your ROM or circuitry is hosed. Try burning it again
to 1008 or 1007and then LOAD DEFAULTS first and then configure as you like. Mike "Dolp" wrote in message ... I just spent hours in updating the bios in my P4P800DX board..but failed...and with terrible experience. a few days ago i flashed successfully under dos from 1006 to 1007, using afudos. I could overclock, adjust the setting of ram, performance mode etc. without any problem. tonite i downloaded the 1008 bios, followed the instructions..but failed... after i flashed..it seemed ok..then i went to bios..changed the settings... but then...after saving & rebooted, it said bios checksum bad..bios recovery then the pc kept searching for floppy & cd rom for bios rom. then i changed back to old bios 1007, but the problem is, i can't make any adjustment in bios to overclock, the setting of ram, performance mode everytime i made such change, after saving the bios, the pc showed again: bios checksum bad...bios recovery then looked for floppy & cd-rom again!!!! Pl. help!! I tried clear the RTC and removed battery, but still the same problem. Can anyone help!!??? |
thank you for your response, mike
I tried several times to flash back to 1007, 1006 or even to 1008. Tried load defaults before and after flashing. but still the same..everytime i tweak the bios setting for the CPU/RAM, the bios recovery function just activated. If i ignored the bios recovery, power off, on again, an error msg. then showed 'overclock failed' and i can go into bios to load the defaults. but not to tweak the setting for the CPU/RAM. Any idea?

uh, Is this one of those systems with a "virus protected bios"
ie, you need to go into the settings and turn write virus protection off cant remember what its' called, i seen it long long ago on like high end 486 (*hah*) systems.. but nothing in current systems "Dolp" wrote in message ... thank you for your response, mike I tried several times to flash back to 1007, 1006 or even to 1008.

but i checked the bios the default setting of this virus protection function is off. & i flashed bios with default setting so the function should be off while my flashing.
