Solve : BIOS recovery help plz?

Answer»

Hi, I am trying to do a BIOS recovery but with no luck.
Hopefully someone can enlighten me on how to do it.

I have MS-6373 running WinXP, and it failed to reboot after flashing it to the latest BIOS w6373nms.280 - makes a loud beep noise and nothing shows up on the screen and nothing happens.

I have an instruction which I am not sure how to go about doing it.

3. Create an autoexec.bat with "AWFL814B.EXE biosfilename" in the content eg. AWFL814Ba619mj21.bin

How do I do this?

Within the autoexec.bat is:

@ECHO OFF
set EXPAND=YES
SET DIRCMD=/O:N
set LglDrv=27 * 26 Z 25 Y 24 X 23 W 22 V 21 U 20 T 19 S 18 R 17 Q 16 P 15
set LglDrv=%LglDrv% O 14 N 13 M 12 L 11 K 10 J 9 I 8 H 7 G 6 F 5 E 4 D 3 C
cls
call setramd.bat %LglDrv%
set temp=c:\
set tmp=c:\
path=%RAMD%:\;a:\;%CDROM%:\
copy command.com %RAMD%:\ > NUL
set comspec=%RAMD%:\command.com
copy extract.exe %RAMD%:\ > NUL
copy readme.txt %RAMD%:\ > NUL

:ERROR
IF EXIST ebd.cab GOTO EXT
echo PLEASE insert Windows 98 Startup Disk 2
echo.
pause
GOTO ERROR

:EXT
%RAMD%:\extract /y /e /l %RAMD%: ebd.cab > NUL
echo The diagnostic tools were successfully loaded to drive %RAMD%.
echo.

IF "%config%"=="NOCD" GOTO QUIT
IF "%config%"=="HELP" GOTO HELP
LH %ramd%:\MSCDEX.EXE /D:mscd001 /L:%CDROM%
echo.
GOTO QUIT

:HELP
cls
call help.bat
echo Your computer will now restart and the startup menu will appear.
echo.
echo.
echo.
echo.
echo.
echo.
echo.
echo.
echo.
echo.
restart.com
GOTO QUIT

:QUIT
echo To get help, type HELP and press ENTER.
echo.
rem clean up environment variables
set CDROM=
set LglDrv=

The BIOS version I want to flash back to is w6373nms.270.

So where do I insert "AWFL814B.EXE w6373nms.270" to the autoexec.bat?

Your assistance is much appreciated.

Thanks!
