DMICFG can't find BIOS hook
I have a P5A-B mobo that I have played around with in the BIOS using
DMICFG.exe You can change the info reported by AsusProbe etc. I also have an A7Pro and A7N266VM with latest BIOS's If I try to run DMICFG or DMICFG2 on them I get the error message in the subject. Anyone know why? Or don't these mobos support DMICFG? -- Gene P |

Anyone know why? Or don't these mobos support DMICFG? IIRC, DMICFG needs to run from a pure DOS prompt. That is, boot the computer using a DOS boot diskette in the floppy drive and then run DMICFG. |

Anyone know why? Or don't these mobos support DMICFG? I got the same message trying to update an Award BIOS . . . "can't find BIOS hook" I booted into DOS with a WIN98SE Boot Disk and tried using: 1. AWDFL535.EXE Dated 05-12-1997 2. AFLASH.EXE Dated 01-16-2001 3. AWDFLASH.EXE Dated 05-08-2003 I would either get the above message or the system would just lock up and freeze. I was able to fix the problem by entering the BIOS and selecting to reload the default values. Then I rebooted once. After that, I was then able to use the DOS boot disk and flash the BIOS successfully. -- Over and Out Daniel Jacobson |
