    Re: IN9 32X Max problems

    I have this motherboard, but this is more of a general question I guess.

    I can't access the BIOS. When I do Del at Startup it just goes black with a blinking cursor. I have tried several solutions and have been informed at the Yoyotech forum that it might be an idea to update the BIOS. However I can't get into the BIOS to make the boot priority Floppy, and its stuck at CD-ROM by default.

    So the question is, can I put the BIOS updates onto CD-Rom and flash it from that at start up?

    Thanks

    Clear the cmos and remove all other bootable devices (Hard drives, CD roms etc..) the floppy will boot as defult.

    I flashed the CMOS and the problem is now sorted. All it then took was a 24 hour struggle with a fresh windows installation, but now we have one healthy PC. Thank you for your help.
