How do you decide which BIOS update to use?
I have CF94510J.15A.0028.2006.1213.1629 The computer (emachine with XP home in it, but was originally vista which was wiped out and XP installed) keeps shutting down and telling me there is something wrong with registry files on boot up but says that it had to go look for them elsewhere and found/fixed the problem. (I've been running this computer without incident for over a year now) It'll run for a while then shut down again. When I sent error report into windows, it tells me I need to update the BIOS but the numbers on the updates don't match up with my mobo. (Processor Intel pentium D 925) Am unsure and don't want to mess up the flash... anyone able to help? This computer runs the automation for my radio station which is currently off air. An expedited answer would sure be MUCH appreciated! My advertisers are paying by the minute for their airtime! Thanks in advance! Micro |

Micro First of all, the only place you should get an BIOS update is from the manufacturer's website. Any other place would be too risky IMHO. And if it has been working for a year, it is hard to believe it needs a BIOS update now. Giving us more info on the error message would be a great help. Also is this a desktop or a laptop? -- Bill Asus EEE PC 702G4 ~ 2GB RAM ~ 16GB-SDHC Xandros Linux (build 2007-10-19 13:03) |
