ParoxysM Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 I flashed the BIOS (like an idiot) on my Abit board and now it wont POST. I already promised this system to someone this weekend, so Im in a pickle. I can snag one on ebay, but I dont feel like waiting a week. Can anyone help me out??

B.Ob. Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 Ouch, that sucks!! Only m/b I have lying around is a old VIA 266 chipset, but might actually need it as I have a patient on my desk at the moment. Hmmm, don't think it supports a Barton anyway.

Dragon Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 Score! I've got 2 Gigabyte boards here but I wouldn't want you to hand them out to a customer. If the northbridge fan doesn't within an hour of running, they'll probably crash since both are unstable. Dragon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParoxysM Posted September 3, 2006 Author Share Posted September 3, 2006 I have a couple 40mm fans I could swap... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberg0d Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Is the board totally dead? What all did you try when troubleshooting it? Is there a reset CMOS jumper? I've also encountered issues after flashing the bios when one revision has fan RPM monitoring and the fan I have connected doesn't meet the minimum requirements for speed. What type of chip is the bios? I have an EPROM burner if you want me to bring it to the next lan party. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
