I think i am in deep **** and need some serious help ! Yep! ;o) I tried to flash the bios of my P4C800-E. During the process the system frooze at 47%. Just guessing, I'll bet you tried doing this from Windows...right? Does anybody have any suggestion besides taking it back to the dealer ???? If you still can....do that. Otherwise you have the following options: 1. Hot Flash - this requires another working machine with the identical MB. This involves swapping chips and booting your machine into DOS. Then re-inserting your old chip (while still running) and re-flashing... While I never tried this, and I have heard success stories, yet there still is a chance at damaging your MB and or chip... or... 2. Buy another pre-flashed BIOS chip and replace the one you have partially programmed. There may still be guys out there who have programmers that still do this. I know they used to... or... 3. Buy a new motherboard. If not identical to the one you have, then be prepared to call Microsoft for XP product activation (assuming you are using the Windows XP OS). Maybe someone else has something to add here. But I had this happen to me once upon a time, and I just had a guy on the net flash me a replacement chip. Cost me about $20 back then...
