one?I can't go into BIOS settings or ALT+CTRL+DEL or anything, I'm just stuck at that screen.This is an IWill KK-266-R with I believe the latest BIOS revision (I'm pretty sure it was, can't check now)The thing is I had this once before, but I just removed all DVDs and CDs from my DVD and CDRW drive and then it booted fine, although it forgot it's previous BIOS settings (no matter, I just set them again). But for some reason this time it just won't go away, even after I removed all discs and unplugged all extra devices, etc.[This message was edited by zathras2 on July 23, 2003 at 04:02.] Danger Mouse "The Dude" Ars Legatus Legionis et Subscriptor Tribus: Los Angeles, CA Registered: Nov 14, 2000Posts: 33177 Posted: Wed Jul 23, 2003 2:13 am Your bios is corrupted. You need to flash the bios again, using a boot floppy, as the bootblock bios does not have support for CDROM/Hard drives.It should just be a bare minimum bootable floppy (win9x) and have the award bios flashing utility plus the current/latest bios for your board. Be aware that trying to type more than 25 characters or so in the command line isn't going to work, so it should just look like the following (where awdflash is the name of t

ProductsHomearound the homeproductivityHow to fix Boot BlockHow to fix Boot BlockBy braniacfix your computer from boot blockStep 1Boot Block Recovery For FreeYou don't need to pay a measly sum of dollars just to recover from a boot block mode. Here it is folks:AWARD Bootblock recovery:That shorting trick should work if the boot block code is not corrupted, and it should not be if /sb switch is used when flashing the bios (instead of /wb switch).The 2 pins to short to force a checksum error varies from chip to chip. But these are usually the highest-numbered address pins (A10 and above).These are the pins used by the system to read the System BIOS (original.bin for award v6), calculate the ROM checksum and see if it's valid before decompressing it into memory, and subsequently allow Bootblock POST to pass control over to the System BIOS.You just have to fool the system into believing that the System BIOS is corrupt. This you do by giving your system a hard time reading the System BIOS by shorting the 2 high address pins. And when it could not read the System BIOS properly, ROM Checksum Error is detected "so to speak" and Bootblock recovery is activated.Sometimes, any combination of the high address pins won't work to force a checksum error in some chips, like my Winbond W49F002U. But shorting the #WE pin with the highest-numbered address pin (A17) worked for this chip. You just have to be experimentative if you're not comfortable with "hot flashing" or "replacement BIOS".But to avoid further damage to your chip if you're not sure which are the correct pins to short, measure the potential between the 2 pins by a voltmeter while the system is on. If the voltage reading is zero (or no potential at all), it is safe to short these pins.But do not short the pins while the system is on. Instead, power down then do the short, then power up while still shorting. And as soon as you hear 3 beeps (1 long, 2 short), remove the short at once so that automatic reflashing from Drive A can proceed wit
