MrBean Posted July 30, 2005 Posted July 30, 2005 Yes, and then boot of the floppy, then run the .bat file. Please have your setup connected to a good UPS, so you don't suffer bad flash Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBean Posted July 30, 2005 Posted July 30, 2005 UPS=Uninterruptable Power Supply Use something like APC, which is a very good regulating UPS, and can filter quite a largish input variance. In South Africa, we use 220Vac, un the range for input variance is from around 190Vac to 240Vac...... So, it provides a stable 220Vac output for your system, which does not fluctuate, and when the input raw mains exceeds the input limits, the supply will switch to battery output to stabilize these excursions, so your system is always exposed to good, clean power. In the States, it is 110Vac. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharp Posted July 30, 2005 Posted July 30, 2005 Hello, Why dont you use the bootable CD iso with all the BIOSes? Never flash directly from a floppy disk. If you want to use a floppy disk make sure it has ramdrive. http://www.dfi-street.com/forum/showpost.p...9&postcount=158 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

red930 Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 Your easiest way out might be the Diamond Flash Image,the very 1st time I ever flashed was with this,it's extremely easy,all you need to do is download the file and have a floppy in the drive. When you click on the file it will do every thing for you,then make sure you load optimized defaults and reboot,when it starts up it will do the flash routine for you. Have a look at the site,2nd one down and you can click on "Please Click Here" to read what it says, http://www.dfi.com.tw/Support/Download/bio..._FLAG=A&SITE=NA After the flash follow the recommended procedure Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
