Supermicro help bios

[Neil72]

Ho riesumato una vecchia super micro SUPER P6SLA E VOLENDO AGGIORNARE IL BIOS, me lo sono spippolato

Ho provato con l'opzione di ricovery come da sito supermicro, ma niente tutto nero.

Vi allego il doc, magari se qualcuno puo' aiutarmi a capire dove sbaglio con la procedura.


FLASH BIOS UPDATE PROCEDURE


1. Please check the current BIOS revision and make sure it is more current then your BIOS.
2. Unzip the BIOS update file and you will find three files, readLX.txt (flash instructions), sm2flash.com (BIOS flash utility), and the BIOS image file (xxxxxx.rom).
3. Place these files on a bootable floppy and reboot your system, there are no BIOS boot block protection jumpers on the motherboard.
4. At the DOS prompt please enter the command "sm2flash", this will start the flash utility and give you an opportunity to first save your current file, flash the boot block and enter the name of the update BIOS image file.
5. It is very important that you save your current BIOS and name it "super.rom" in case you need to recover from a failed BIOS update.
6. Select flash boot block then enter the update BIOS image. Select "Y" to start the BIOS flash procedure, do not disturb your system until the flash utility displays that the procedure is complete.
7. After updating your BIOS please clear CMOS then load and save Optimal Values in the BIOS






EMERGENCY BIOS RECOVERY PROCEDURE "d"


1. Turn your system off and place the floppy disk with the save BIOS image file (see above procedure, step 5) in drive A.
2. On your keyboard press and hold "CTRL" and "Home" low-level BIOS flash hot keys.
3. Turn on power with the hot keys depressed until your floppy drive is accessed. Your screen will remain blank until the BIOS program block is flashed.
4. If your system either reboots or displays a message to reboot system then the procedure was successful.
5. If the recovery procedure was not successful, please contact our RMA department for replacement.


Ho creato con winxp un disco formattato con l'opzione di AVVIO MSDOS, ma non riesco a fare l'upgrade.

Adesso e praticamente morta, ma alla partenza mi fa partire il floppy, presumo per attuare la procedura di emergenza.

Monta un ATMEL29C020, e vorrei provare a far programmare l'ATMEL con un programmatore, qualcuno ne possiede uno?


O cmq e possibile usare un programmatore che programma l' ATMEL 90s8515?

Mi dispiace buttarla via, vi chiedo un piccolo aiuto
