Obviously then then either there is a problem with the Beta BIOS or there is something wrong with your Method of Flashing. Did you set the BIOS to it's Default Settings BEFORE you tried to Flash the Unmodified Beta BIOS ???
It was user error. I was running the flash util and and BIOS bin from a HD that was NTFS formatted -DUH. I put the files in a non-NTFS partition and it flashed with no problems using the original BIOS that you posted..... I updated my original post verifying that the BIOS worked.
Yes thank you for your concern, it is appreciated I flashed the original latest BIOS, this flashed fine. I restarted into BIOS it was fine. I shut down and restarted and flashed the modded BIOS this time it began flashing but FROZE just after "Veryfying Bootblock ... DONE" I left it for several minutes and it was still frozen and then in my mind I weighed up the cost of the motherboard (a) and the words "F*** It" (b) and the latter (b) won out - so after several more minute wait, I Manually shut down the PC and restarted - it restarted fine and into BIOS fine, then shut down and restarted into OS fine - also PM sent
Thanks for the feedback. Your RWE report is fine - Slic 2.1 Asus present in bios now. What options you used for mod flashing ? AFUDOSP 709ASLIC.ROM /P /N /REBOOT ???
only I renamed 709ASLIC.ROM --> HBC0709A.ROM so I only used : AFUDOSP HBC0709A.ROM [ENTER] should I reflash with : AFUDOSP HBC0709A.ROM /P /N /REBOOT [ENTER] ? Anyway it all seems fine - the BIOS seems different because the last few newer ones have a graphical interface which enable mouse support - I prefer the BIOS simple with keyboard though - but it is still fine
Yes, the original one that you posted worked. I edited my posting and changed it to confirmed/working.
