Well I was attempting to flash the bios when I got an ERROR. Here's the info:
(from a DOS boot disk, new bios and flash utility on disk)
A:\>AMINF325.EXE
DOS/4G Protected Mode Run-Time Version 2.01a
Copyright(c)Tenberry Software,Inc 1996
*Chipset Type - ALi M1621/1543
*Flash Part - PMC 29F002T_V1
*ERROR 2 - File does not exist
A:\>
The last 2 lines were RED. I rebooted and alls well again.Perhaps the downloaded files were missing parts? I was hoping for a request to back up the existing bios not an ERROR. The mobo is Pcchips 726mrt ver1.2a with bios 9/19/2000. I was updating to 2k1106s.rom . The new bios and flash utility were both from the mobo website/same page. I notice the flash prog may be newer than the one which is on my install CD that came with the mobo, eg, AMINF325-vs-AMINF321. Could the old Flash prog still work installing the new bios? Any advise is welcomed.
