[Ph0enix]

I appreaciate where you stand now.
For the sake of £12 for a flash at least you have it done by the professionals
Nice system btw

Lets see what Sean can do for you on Monday.

Thanks for the advice and info about the BIOS version , I will wait till tomorrow whether Sean can help me with my situation.

Nice you got a 8800GTX wished I had that then a GTS

That's very kind of you to offer me your BIOS , but what you going to use? While I'll send mine? Thanks for the extraction tool information, already got one in my toolkit now I know what it does

I will wait to see what other option available such as if Sean can help, since Scan is sending my Q6600 at estimate date on the 25th might aswell wait for his reply. If not I'll use yours

No problem. I have already got a 1.3 bios chip in mine. I got a spare from Dave87 on the forum here as a backup so it is not in use. I can flash your 1.2 chip with my E6600 cpu so its no issue for me.

I would rather help you out if its needed where you have no cost involved hence my offer.
Still as you say hopefully Sean will help out when he sees this post tomorrow

Thanks for the BIOS chip DratUK manage to receive it today, I would PM you but I can't for some reason. Can't really do much with my system due to waiting for RAMs

[DratUK]

No problem. Glad to help.
