Unzip it / Install it (then unzip the BIOS update). And load the BIOS update FROM the file menu / load file

DONT update it through the internet. It may freeze..Once it finishes reboot, go into the BIOS set it to its defaults / then reconfigure it then save the settings.

757541 2009-04-01 08:16:00 its ALT+F2 Blam (54)
757542 2009-04-01 08:17:00 ALT-F2 NOT ALT-F12

If that doesnt work your flash drive probably isnt bootable. Try the last post I posted.

Remember NOT to update it from the Internet, it MAY / WILL freeze. And then it'll be dead

Just a note speedy-the flash drive doesn't need to be bootable for EzFlash doesn't work, as the PC doesn't boot from the flash drive, it just accesses it from a BIOS application

757544 2009-04-01 08:34:00 Yup I know but not all versions of EZ-flash support booting from flash drives either (actually I dont think EZ flash 1 does at all). Only floppy

If his mobo supported EZ flash 2, it would have been easier, he could have done it from within the BIOS

757545 2009-04-01 08:40:00 Hey i tried ALT+F2 , it showed a menu, but it says cd rom not found, flopy not found, than says this line again and again. i think my bios is not bootable from flash, anyway, i installed the file u gave me , and updated from the file i downloaded than restarted, and after restarted it showed some CMOS error, i pressed F2 and load the setup deafult and continued,

AND GUESS WHAT? IT WORKED MAN! MY SYSTEM NOW SHUTS DOWN NORMALLY, I AM VERY HAPPY THAT AT LEAST ONE PROBLEM SOLVED COMPLETELY, IT'S VERY HARD TO SEE A PROBLEM SOLVED INSTANTLY IN COMPUTER.

757546 2009-04-01 08:42:00 Now, i sent the 1 TB for replacement, they are asking what is the problem, what should i tell them? crazy4sunshine (14724)
757547 2009-04-01 08:43:00 The default settings MAY be good enough. If you find that something isnt working (like USB2). Make sure its on hispeed in the BIOS, to get USB 2 speed.

Remember to save the settings, (if you change anything). Well we told you to WAIT. NOT to send the 1 TB back...Think of anything / something

757548 2009-04-01 08:47:00 No man, i didn't read any post about not to send 1 TB. and why don't u wanna send? do u think speed fan was showing false error, but my system evan showed error, when i boot my systme showed 3rd slave HDD bad, backup and replace. crazy4sunshine (14724)
