American Megatrends Bios Update Gigabyte
American Megatrends bios's SUCK ****
Ive always stuck with award and for once i didnt check and my damn socket a board came with AMI, i assumed it didnt as my old gigabyte i had with my k5 was award anyhow..
I downloaded a new bios for my board and i wanted to flash it, well it said in dos Usage: Flashblabla romfile /command
well i know what im doing and it did not work at all so.. i went back to giga-byte.com and... they have this @bios windows flash utility, for gigabyte board so i used it
it said it worked but reboot and ( BAD CMOS Checksum )
i onyl got booted by going f1 getting into cmos and loading bios defaults, long story short i flashed back to the old one using the windows thing again same message, so..
i downloaded another bios one newer then m orignal but older then the first one and.. that came with some other flash utility it was dos based but in a Dos window environemtn and i flashed it... said PASSED but.. SAME MESSAGE!!
What does this mean
BAD CMOS checksum???
