7VTXH+ - Bad BIOS Flash
I am in BIOS hell.
Through a comedy of errors, I have managed to trash the main and backup BIOS on a 7VTXH+. To add insult to injury, I ordered two pre-flashed BIOS chips from BadFlash.com only to find out after the fact that the original BIOS chips are soldered to the mobo. Bleh. In any event, the computer has a floppy, a CD-RW, and a CD-ROM. When the computer powers up, I can see the activity lights on the CD and DVD cycle back and forth a few times. The floppy shows no activity. After the lights cycle on the CD and DVD, nothing happens. Of course, I have no video. I've tried the floppy boot recovery for an AMI BIOS. But, since the floppy doesn't seek, that didn't work. I've also tried a CD boot recovery. It seems like the CD is being read, but nothing happens. A few questions: 1. What BIOS boot recovery methods, if any, does a 7VTXH+ support? 2. Is it worth unsoldering the old BIOS chips and replacing them with the ones I ordered? I suspect it would cost more than a new mobo. 3. What is the world record for throwing a 7VTXH+ like a frisbee? Thanks in advance, OB |
