880492 2010-04-27 11:43:00 Hi.

Got a pc thats had a bios up done on it but after the person did it all the pc does now is BSOD after the windows boot loading screen.

No floppy drive on the pc only dvd burner and usb stick.

How can I make a cd or usb drive install a new bios on it?

Thanks

Mates one its same as mine. For sum strange thing after he updated his bios to the lastest 1 it has gone wrong.

Glad I havent done it on my 1. :) But he has given me his to sort out as he is not pc wise.

Its got windows and that all on it still. The bios update is a windows updater program so dont no if you can get the bios file off that to install it onto a usb or cd to flash it.

880500 2010-04-27 13:31:00 Did he set the BIOS to its defaults after flashing it. Then reconfigure it? Speedy Gonzales (78)
880501 2010-04-27 13:46:00 Yep theres not a lot to change in it mostly device boot order and clock and date settings also a option for hdd and couple for passwords and that. bluezone (12434)
