I found a copy of A00 for 700m that has rom files. i tried the instructions on the bios recovery thread using USB stick with no luck going to try to find a USB floppy and see how that goes.. hopefully i get a solution so i can post it. not feeling to optimistic about this one though...
Thank you so much! Im going to try this over weekend. As far as A00 bios, i was unsuccessfull at recovering using USB thumb drive. Never tried with USB floppy as i was doubtfull of even having compatible bios version. I am going to try this one with thumb drive and see how that goes, if no luck then im going to barrow a USB Floppy drive and try the recovery. is time consuming having to recreate the entire boot disk just to change out phlash versions... oh well what have i got to looose! i will post my results.
