GA-8I845GV - BIOS UPDATE

Archived from groups: alt.comp.periphs.mainboard.giga-byte (More info?)

After BIOS update to GA-8I845GV (P4-1.9Ghz- win2k) there is no signal to the
monitor, the hd and processor fan spin but thats about all thats happening.
I used q-flash to update with "8i845gv.f3" extracted from
"bios_8i845gv_f3.exe" downloaded from gigabyte website. Everything went as
in the manual up to the point where it said "Copy Bios completed - pass!"
and then after the restart it never woke up again.
Could anyone please help?

thanks

if my guess is right, you need to do a blind flash.. I had to do it once...
not fun... the floppy should still be able to boot a floppy with the proper
bat commands to do it.

PS... unless you have a dual BIOS setup.
