    Please someone flash my card to a XTPE

    First off this request involves no nakedness whatsoever!!!!

    I have a Vivo x800 pro and I would like it flashed with a XTPE bios.My mobo floppy slot has decided to die so I don't have a floppy to try and flash it myself.(like I know how to do it anyway...NOT).So I would like to know if anyone in the Newcastle area would be willing to come and flash the card for me.They would need to know how to flash it from a cd.Please Please someone up here come and make an old man happy with a little card flash.I would be willing to add to their beer funds.

    Right create a bootable cd or memory device (memory card from a camera or USB memory stick (Make sure BIOS supports booting from those devices)) go to this thread (http://www.over-clock.com/ivb/index.php?showtopic=5377) at over-clock as marci has created a batch file to do it

    I have done it and works a treat

    Does your card have 1.6ns memory?

    Yep it sure does have 1.6ns mem,and the rage theater chip,the yellow thingy lol,and its been running sweet at 526/560 since I put it in.
    Thanks for the link,I'll have a read of that and have a go.
    I've tried making bootable cd's but I'm doing something wrong cos it just keeps giving me error messages when i try and boot from them.I'm hopeless at this sort of thing.

    Update...
    I've tried and failed several times to get a boot cd to work.I'm just too thick to know what i'm doing.Tried another 3 different floppy cables and power cables to see if I can get a floppy working but I cant.Havent got a clue whats happened there.
    I do have a 7in1 card reader installed and a 64mb smartmedia card.Is it possible to
    put the files on the SMC and boot from the 7in1 reader?If I could please tell me in a simple version how.lol.

    It was so easy once I got the floppy working.I am now the proud owner of a x800 XTPE.It's been a chew but it's all been worth it.
    Thanks to the people who've tried to help me. Much Appreciated.
