Hi mom, i'm not sure what you mean, are you taliking about the cmos??

Hi Maine, I don't think it is the power supply although I can't completely rule that out, because there is also another problem that sometimes happens but not as lethal and that is the computer will sometimes just freeze, like it is in a complete forzen state, nothing moves and screen stays the...

Hi Maine My system's sepcs are as follows: MOBO is ECS K7VZA BIOS 3.2 as we all know!!! Duron 900MHZ, not clocked. 52X52X24 Burner 80 GIG + 20 GIG HDD both 7200RPM Seagates 2 x 256MB SDRAM 133 64 MB GF4 MX440 SB 128 Vibra 1 x USB PCI card Netcomm 56k internal modem I think that's it. Now it...

Hi Maine, I am copying the BIOS BIN files over after extracting them, and I made sure that the names I type in are exactly to the name of the file so there is no mistake in getting the right file, I even tried it with caps and no caps just to make sure. The main reason why I have to update...

Hi Echo The computer was built by me so I know the parts are legit, but I come to think that is it possible that a virus has attacked my BIOS? Anyone heard of this before? It's justa wild guess. I have even tried using the older version of the award flash that is on my MOBO's cd and even...

hi dtaufer, I have made sure of all that but it still won't work, i have flashed the bio of my older computer no problems, it's just this one that's giving me the problem

Hi Fish, Yeah I would like to know how to do a hard-drive flash please, I am using a floppy at the moment. I am not sure how to do a harddrive flash. Please advise. Thanks onn99

thanks but i tried that, 3.7 is also "unknown flash type" i am completely confused on why this is and ECS isn't replying my support queriy either. Thanks for your help so far

oh yeah i have also checked that there is no setting to prevent my BIO being written to.

it is BIO for the right MB, I have a ECS K7VZA, on start up my current bios is 3.2, I am trying to updatre it to 3.2B, I have been on the website of the Board's manufacurer and the bio 3.2 revision date matches with the revision date shown on my computer start up screen, you know then one when...

Hi all, I have been trying to update my BIOS, but I keep getting the error "unknown flash type" when i try to do it. I have checked that I have awardbios and I am using awardbios version 8 flash to try and update. I have no idea why it doesn't work. I am running windows XP Pro if...

Thanks, I will try the new BIOS install and then try the power management disable and see how they work. In terms of a new 80 GIG hard-drive, I installed it and then installed a new OS on it, so you are probably right in saying my Motherboard is not updated with all the drivers. My old...

I don't think it is RAM because I have had this computer for quite some time and it only started playing up recently, so it is not a new computer. I checked the event viewer as you suggested and it had errors with source from IPNATHLP, which was the network address translator. The error...

Hi, I have an annoying problem that has been occuring on my computer for a while now, I am running Windows XP Pro. Windows will reset itself just like as if I am pressing the reset button when I am installing large programs like a game or something or even transferring large fies like a CD...

I'm afraid that without the check you will always have that problem for SQL. you need to put something there which in your case will need to be 0. I had the same problem, in my case I put blah = "NULL". SQL doesn't seem to like null values even though it allow it. Oh by the way are...
