Flashing under Windows Just a short note on flashing: Since i have noticed 2 posts within the last 10 or so stating that people use a windows-based flashing tool i would like to advise you guys of the following: Flashing from within windows is very dangerous and often gives errors. it is not advised to do that, however comfortable and easy that may appear! also, on many occasions, the modified bios will not be flashed by a windows based utility. It will give errors or even worse, destroy the bios. one should at least try to use the Dos-based manufacurer's tool. Sometimes, with some Mainboards, it is even better to use the routine programmed right into the bios-chip. for switches and parameters on the appropriate flashing-tool ask google. there is lists of switches for most tools drifting around the net.
i flashed the modded bios and activated vista it worked fine. System says activated but on desktop is still the Evaluation text... how can i remove that? How can i be sure that the bios modd is running and working now? If i install vista new which stepps will i have to repeat? many thanks!!
