When I use the award flash tool and specify the string "AWDFLASH W9617VMS.120 /py /sn /cc /f" as per the instructions that accompany the BIOS download from the MSI site the BIOS flash appears to hang. Waited over an hour for a confirmation that the flash was sucessful.
The motherboard is a MSI K8T Master2 FAR (MS9130).
Does anyone have a solution to this issue.
I am having problems booting my PC. Sometimes it will boot and recognize my HD but not my Floppy. I have reinstalled WIN XP but could not install the onboard RAID controller because there was no Floppy to load the driver.
I kept getting error messages like CMOS Checksum error and when I boot up my computer and when it comes up to the part where the bios is detecting SATA drives it says in proper Chinglish:
"Hardware initiate failed, please check device. The bios does not be installed"
I have downloaded Server_W9617VMS120.zip from the MSI site which appears to be their most recent BIOS upgrade.
