Hardware lover... YOUR THE MAN !!! Als ik bedenk hoe dicht ik er zelf bij was ,ik had je notabene nog aangeraden om het met die auto-exec te proberen toen je zonder beeld zat. Wat me opviel bij het flashen met auto-exec was dat nu behalve de BIOS ook NVRAM werd beschreven en het BOOTBLOCK van de rom. mijn Harddisk word nu ook gevonden. Dit is wat er in de autoexec staat "afudos b11f1p02.rom /p /b /n /x " waar p staat voor mainbios b voor bootblock en n voor nonvolatile ram. ik kan alleen de betekenis van die x niet vinden.
- /X Do not check ROM ID?
Ik meen me ook te herinneren dat diverse vakjes bij de Windows flash niet aangevinkt waren en dat heb ik ook zo maar gelaten. Je gaat er vanuit dat er een kloppende default keuze zal zijn die moet werken. Blijkbaar niet dus.
Het begint er naar uit te zien dat er via de autoexec dos mode, of met de opties /p /b /n /x actief, veilig naar het nieuwe bios geflashed kan worden.
