sassy Posted February 24, 2007 Posted February 24, 2007 Hello, I was flashing the bios of my board and suddenly I got a BSOD now my computer won't turn on, I can only get the computer to turn on when I use the internal power switch. Even then the system doesn't show anything. Is there a way of re-flashing the board? Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poisonsnak Posted February 25, 2007 Posted February 25, 2007 ouch that's no fun. The BIOS chip needs to be flashed externally at this point, you basically have 2 options: 1. buy a new chip pre-flashed with what you want (try www.biosmedic.com) 2. hot-flash it (turn on a friend's PC, swap BIOS chips while it's running, flash, and swap the chip back out and into your PC. Hot-flashing is pretty dangerous because if you short out the wrong pins by accident you could end up frying your friend's mobo) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sassy Posted February 26, 2007 Posted February 26, 2007 Thanks for the reply Poisonsnak. I hope I will not have to resort to any of your suggestions. Is there any chance that the Award bios recovery method will work? http://www.biosman.com/biosrecovery.html Thanks again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
