P5S800-VM/S rev 0170 bios update

Is this from a Packard Bell pc? My search has turned up that it is a proprietary board built for PB. As such I would start by looking for an update using their support site.

 

I have an NEC/Packard Bell, has that exact motherboard.
I too had the same issue, but i ended up making my own and flashed it.

Works fine, it has SLIC 2.1 now and have had no issues with crashes or anything, I can upload if you wish?
It worked for me but I backed up my old ROM before flash, flashed and booted into win7, installed certificate, PC OEM activated.

Note, if i upload it am not guaranteeing it!

Mines maybe a never version though.

 

Help!

Hi, i have a ASUS P5S800-VM/S motherboard and i stuck it somehow in ez flash without me having a bios update for it.
So now the pc boots DIRECTLY in ez-flash and searches for bios either on floppy or on cd.
The keyboard is dead as in no key working (Del, F1...F12, CapsLock, NumLock, Ctrl+Alt+Del... nothing)
Can't find any bios on ASUS site that's accepted by ezflash since on asus site there's only the P5S800-VM (without the /S)
Can you please save a copy of your bios and somehow let me have a try with it?
I tried moving the bios jumper, removing the battery, changed ram.... nothing works.
Please please please help ...

 

Did anyone ever get this? I have the exact same board and am looking to inject SLIC 2.1 :-S

Thanks, will try that out and see if it flashes. That model is not in the PB back catalogue on support so couldn't find a stock BIOS. Otherwise I would have chucked it into the Award & AMI request thread.

 

on the case rear PT.xxxx

 

There is no PT.xxxx only:

Model/Type: UTOW - SAN
MS WHQL No: SAN 1058593
S/N: (doesn't bring up on PB site)
PID: 0496668
P/N: PB34211301
Model Name: iMedia 1408

That BIOS rom causes an instant reboot each time trying to boot into win 7. In startup repair I get a BSOD with the following: The bios in this system is not fully ACPI compliant. Please contact your system vendor for an updated bios.

 

i hope u backed up old AMIBOOT.rom
or S8VM1023 ?
did u know version u had ? we could have used the backup to slic.

 

I did and have flashed back. Any ideas now?

EDIT: Just trying something as read up about bios updates throwing win 7 out of whack. Flashing your rom again and trying a quick re-install as there wasn't much on this machine.

 

make backup with afudos or afuwin..post it.

 

OK, re-install of windows has worked, is stable and activated. MASSIVE THANKS!

 

with 204 ?

 

Yup, running through windows update as we speak happy and activated. I'm guessing that the 204 bios fixed some power management issues resulting in a different RSDT table or something along those lines and windows ACPI settings just couldn't handle the change.

 

yah dsdt likely changed also.. machine type changed in acpi of 7 cpudriver . good job in spotting it.

Hello,
I wanted to upgrade my bios (from an ASUS P5S800-VM/S motherboard) with an ASUS P5S800-VM BIOS. So I tried to do what you said, then it didn't work.
It says: "wrong command, use afudos /i[BIOS.ROM] or afudos /o[BIOS.ROM]
Can you help me please ?
PS: Sorry for my english, I'm french.
