For running hwdirect under vista 64 bit try to disable "unsigned driver" feature under vista and run hwdirect again.
Try with Asus Update please or EZ-Flash II from USB stick. Afudos has problems with 2 Mb bios rom files.
As China4Ever said we need hwdirect for informations. See you tomorrow to continue. Temporary disable driver signature check: Press F8 during boot—->Disable Driver Signature Enforcement only for one session, but it´s enough Instructions will follow. Yen
wow this is a tough one.. in EZ flash tells me bootblock is not valid in the bios file and wont continue P.S ok i will try to get HW to get going
We need a dump: NEW address ff200 size about 1000! And one as told before. Instructions already provided. I have to sleep...CU tomorrow Yen
