I need to update my BIOS for dual core, I dont have a floppy drive, and I cant find a program that can do it windows, for my DFI NF4 SLI-DR I did try doing it via my USB stick, but it gives me the error "NTLDR is missing" So any other ways?
Yea, Nero (at least the version I have) has built in DosLINUX image files. When you make the bootable disc you can put those files on your C:\ in a folder, then browse to it and run,
in theroy you could format a pendrive as a boot disk, then use usb as first boot in the bios. i havent done that but at a quick glance it seems the easiest method, remember to copy the bios on to the pen drive after formatting it! lol
very true. i dont know why but i was thinking of a way to flash my GPU bios at the time of writing my post above, so i was thinking i couldn't be done in windows. Iv used winflash to update my DFI in the past so u'll be fine
Thats the first thing I tried I got an error saying its not an award bios, its phoenix. Yet one of the first links when you search for that on google is... I've done a boot CD. and it gets to DOS, the path is on the A:/ drive tho, not sure if thats suppose to happen, I then type AUTOEXEC, it says its not a command. So I obviusly dont know what im doing lol.
Where did you put the BIOS files? I reccomend to put them on C:\BIOS then when you are at the A:/ prompt: Code: C: <enter> cd BIOS <enter> <command here> <enter>
Where did you put them though? I can't see the download as I'm at work, but I'm assuming it'll be from a ZIP? If it's just the BIOS.bin file then put that in the C:\BIOS directory with the pheonix flashing tool.
Phew finaly done it, I found a Utility that you can boot on a Bootable cd and just select the bios you want to install easy.
