    Dosflash.exe not working without parameters.

    Info from dosflash:

    "Usage: 'Flash [commands]..."
    "Try 'Flash -help' for more commands."

    With proper commands: Dosflash.exe /file BIOS.CAP:

    "Error 234 - secure flash verification failed! Status = 234."

    Maybe bios is somehow protected (?)

    Yes, I have: 3460_A12.rar

    I tried "SctWinFlash32.exe"

    The same error:

    "ERROR 234 - SecureFlash verification fail! Status = 234."
