    Unhappy Bad Bios Flash - Gigabyte K8V800 Pro

    I decided to upgrade the bios on an old AMD Socket 754 platform, but the bios flash failed and I stupidly flashed again and corrupted both main and backup bios. I've tried recovering by setting up a floppy with an old bios and a specially written autoexec.bat file, but it still shows a blank screen and does not want to take it. Have I now got a very large paperweight?

    Are the BIOS soldered, or can you remove one?
