Help! My son just got a new HP Media Center m8020n. The HP Automatic Updater downloaded a Motherboard BIOS Update and he tried to install it but it locked up. Now the computer won't pass the POST, says BIOS checksum error. It won't let me get to the BIOS Setup screen.

We have searched the net and found AWDFLASH.EXE but now we need a .bin file with the new BIOS. HP Websight has an executable file but it is a Vista file and all my working computers are XP. Ive tried to open the file but it won't open or download.

Can anybody help by providing the proper BIOS file to flash into the system? I think if you are running Vista, you can download the file from the HP site, extract it using Winzip or Winrar, then posting it somewhere I can get it or send it to me via email.

Any ideas are appreciated. RaefS
