I have an ASUS P4S8X and installed XP. I get the message:
ERROR - can't write ESCD at the end of DOS just before windows.
This seems to be an old problem for ASUS when I search the internet with that error phrase. People are replacing BIOS chips and doing backflips to get rid of it. Some people had to get new boards.
My system does not freeze. It is running. Is there any harm in this message?
I loaded their latest BIOS 004 and went back through 002 and 03a and it made no difference.
ASUS is not going to be of much help.
There is a Driver on a Sony site that says it will get rid of this but when I execute it I get a message that my board did not identify itself properly. Maybe they check the board ID and the P4S8X is too new to get a hit.
