      I know what CMOS is, but I can never remember what the letters actually stand for. Saying that, I have never had a reason to use any BIOS level flashing stuff, and wouldn't know where to begin. Regardz Colin J Davies

(eww... that sounds dirty!) :omg: I've found that sometimes I can only get things to work right when I flash it (like my sound card on my old computer, it had issues with the POS called "Win98").:-D

I have, and it's always appropriate to start with a quiet prayer... a spare motherboard can be handy, too.:) I'm a Frisbeeterian.

                        I wish we could have used PLD/ASIC devices. I attended the Grand Opening party for LSI Logic (one of the pioneers in the field), and even a simple one would have cost me $100,000 for the first prototype! I could buy a lot of circuit board space and DIPs for that price... Now you can buy an array and burn it yourself for a couple of bucks!:omg: I'm a Frisbeeterian.
