Hi All,
I am looking at an old computer for a friend it seems to work OK but does not recognise the CD-ROM.
I have checked the cabling and everything seems to be OK, I have also tried a different CD-ROM but that doesn't work either.
The computers BIOS will not find the drive so I thought a BIOS upgrade might be required.
The BIOS is an Award BIOS 4.50PG
ID String = SIS-501-503-2A5IAE12-00
Apparently the E12 is the manufacturer of the board (ECS) I have been to their site and downloaded the BIOS update files but the BIOS won't flash. The computer just freezes during the flash process.
When the machine is turned off and then on again everything is still as it was.
Does anyone have any ideas???
Thanks
Lee.
