    Crapsticks

    Just upgraded the BIOS on my NF7-S and now the damned thing wont boot, tried the old Insert key and the bios pin but its still not booting, think I could have flashed the wrong bios but surely flashmenu checks the board 1st to make sure its the right one?

    you may need to get a new bios chip or get your one flashed with the correct bios, there is an italian company which do this for about £20

    Got an NF7-S2G here, I've taken the BIOS out of that and the old board boots, so I've just booted the machine up with that BIOS and taken the S2G's bios back out and am now going to see if flashmenu will write it..

    Well the version of FlashMenu on the NF7S-2 machine wouldnt let me flash the BIOS as it said it was write protected.

    However the older version of FlashMenu on the S2G machine did let me write the BIOS, so now both machines work again... yay!
