888060 2010-05-28 05:09:00 i don't have the money to fix it. i need this pc working. im not going to use an old laptop with only 16mb video card. thats just **** goodiesguy (15316)
888061 2010-05-28 05:13:00 Since you've got the file to flash the BIOS, WHAT BIOS (if you've got it), did you download?? Since there's 2 revisions of this mobo (1, and 3)

Does this have SATA onboard? Since one has SATA, the other doesnt. I think the mobo is a KM-400 M2 (An ECS mobo), not KMD-400 M2

888062 2010-05-28 05:17:00 no it dosent have sata onboard and it is KM-400 M2 (An ECS mobo) goodiesguy (15316)

888064 2010-05-28 05:23:00 the flash utility off the disk which i booted off the floppy asks for a file name. i'll find the picture on the net to show you goodiesguy (15316)
888065 2010-05-28 05:24:00 www.ecs.com.tw this is what i get shown. what do i type in? goodiesguy (15316)
888066 2010-05-28 05:29:00 You need the BIOS update, which is here (www.ecs.com.tw). Click on downloads / BIOS. Thats if the revision of the mobo is rev 1.0. But you better open the case and make sure its got rev 1.0 written on the mobo somewhere

Go into the BIOS and see what version of the BIOS is on it now
