har fået slette min bios på mit nye soltek mobo!

Du skal lave en bootdiskette, udpakker du den nye bios, og booter på den, det skal virke.

Kan du boote fra diskette?

Hvis din BIOS er fucked, kan PC'en slet ikke boote.
Det kan næsten ikke svare sig at købe en ny BIOS. Et par hundrede mere, og du har til et nyt bundkort.
Der er selvfølgelig hardcore måden.
Find en anden PC med præcis samme bundkort. Start PC'en op, og pil CMOS chippen imens den kører, og sæt den over i din egen. Start din egen PC op. Når den kører, sætter du din defekte CMOS chip i igen, og så flasher du den med en ny BIOS.
(Husk at sætte den "go'e" CMOS chip tilbage i PC1)

Det kan sagtens lade sig gøre, men det er på eget ansvar :o)

Du kan selvfølgelig også anskaffe dig en EEPROM programmer. Så kan du flashe en ny BIOS ned på din chip med den.

‘HOT-SWAPPING’ A BIOS CHIP

‘Hot-Swapping’ refers to removing a BIOS chip from the motherboard while the system power is
on and the system is in an idle state. Hot-Swapping a BIOS chip is VERY dangerous to both the
system and the person attempting to remove the chip. This method of BIOS recovery should only
be performed by experienced technician as a last option. Hot-Swapping will work on any type of
BIOS chip as long as both computers use the same type of chip.

WARNING: If done improperly this method of BIOS recovery could cause severe damage to the
motherboard and BIOS as well as severe injury to the person attempting to remove
the chip.

Hot-Swapping requires you to have two computers with the same BIOS distribution and type. The
way it works is, while the second (working computer) is on the BIOS chip is removed and the
BIOS chip from the first (non-working) board is inserted in its place. The BIOS flash utility is then
run on the second computer and the BIOS chip is updated with the BIOS file for the first
computer. In essence you are reprogramming the bad BIOS chip on a different motherboard and
then putting the chip back into the non-working motherboard. The procedure is below.

1) Start the second (working computer) and go to a DOS prompt. Make sure that no
programs are running in the background.
2) While the computer is on carefully remove the BIOS chip from the motherboard and set it
aside. Be sure to note the orientation of the chip so that you can later inset it back in to
the motherboard exactly as it was.
3) Insert the BIOS chip from the first (non-working) computer in to the BIOS socket on the
second (working computer’s) motherboard.
4) At the DOS prompt run the BIOS flash utility and update the BIOS chip with the correct
BIOS file for the first computer. If you get a warning message that the chipset and BIOS
does not match continue anyway. If the flash utility will not allow you to continue and it is
an AMI flash utility then re-run the flash utility using the ‘/X’ switch to enter the utilities
graphical interface and manually reprogram the BIOS from there.
5) Once the BIOS chip has been reprogrammed successfully carefully remove the BIOS
chip from the second computer and put it back into the first computer. Be sure to pay
close attention to the orientation of the chip so that you insert it correctly. Plugging in the
chip backwards will immediately damage both the chip and the motherboard.
6) Start the first computer. If all went well the first system should now be working again. If
not see the TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEMS section below.
TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEMS

PROBLEM: After following all of the directions the system will still not start normally. When the
system is powered on all it will do is try to access the floppy drive.
This would seem to indicate that the BIOS reprogramming was not successful or that
the BIOS ROM file was either damaged or not the correct one. Try the procedure
again using a different BIOS ROM file for your motherboard. Make sure that the BIOS
ROM file is for your exact motherboard model and revision.

PROBLEM: When the computer restarts the message ‘CMOS Checksum Bad’ and ‘Press F1 to
Enter Setup’ is displayed.
This is not necessarily a problem. This message is displayed when there are no
CMOS settings saved. This simply means that you need to set your system settings
(such as CPU speed, etc) Press whatever key you are prompted to and set the
CMOS settings accordingly.

PROBLEM: While trying to recover a AWARD BIOS the system starts to read from the floppy disk
and then stops and nothing else happens. When the system is rebooted it still has
the same problem.
This most likely indicates that there is something wrong with the boot disk. Double
check that the disk is bootable, contains the AUTOEXEC.BAT file, the BIOS flash
utility and the BIOS ROM (.BIN) file. If all of the files are present and the disk is
bootable then double check the AUTOEXEC.BAT file. Make sure that the name is
correct and that all of the commands are correct.
If you can see on the screen what the system is doing then try typing the commands
in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file manually to see if there is an error message that is
displayed. If everything checks out then try using a different BIOS ROM (.BIN) file. If
the problem persists use a different flash utility.

er det ikke muligt, at man bruger et bundkort med samme bios-chip type, og booter den op, og sætter chip fra defekt soltek kort i denne, og flasher fra denne! Det skulle jo egentlig bare dreje sig om at man lægger instruktioner ned på en chip, så om der bliver flashet fra et soltek mobo, eller et andet mobo er vel lige meget, bare det er den rigtige bios der bliver lagt ind på chipen til soltek-kortet!?!?!

Jo det er muligt - meeeeen HUSK på eget ansvar :o)
