Hi. I am a bit confused and hope someone here can enlighten me. I have a Gigabyte GA-EX38-DS4 board which has AWARD BIOS. I found the already modded F3 bios for me here. I also downloaded the original BIOS from Gigabytes site to put on my recovery floppy incase something bad happens, and it comes with the flash utility called flash895.exe. This is where I am getting confused, the provided flash utility from GA´s site is NOT an AWARD flash util but an AMI BIOS flash util?? Atleast it says so when the GUI starts when I run the flash895.exe with no parameters? A friend of mine flashed his GA mobo with the mentioned (flash895.exe) flash util today and it was succesfull. And also the recovery bios thread states that I should put AWDFLASH.EXE on my recovery floppy along with the autoexec.bat and the bios file. This is confusing to me, I have award bios but GA provide AMI-flasher with their bios:es and the recovery floppy uses Awdflash? What should I use on my recovery-floppy, GA´s provided util, or awdflash.exe as stated in the thread and which is not the same as GA provides??? tnx in advance
That tool is for AMI bios 8.00 and you have version 7 thats why it won't work. Hopefully someone whos been doing modding for a while will help you out.
Can you please install and open ACPI Scope. Got to File-->Load ACPI Information-->From BIOS Save it as *.ats file and upload please.
