Hello!
I renamed "M57A_106_SLIC.WPH" which I have on my USBstick to "BIOS.WPH" and now after entering dos mode when I type "phlash16 /s /x /force" and hit enter the laptop shows a full list of phlash16.exe options which it can be run (3 screens of options) after which I am back in dos mode. At the end it said that I need a bios file but when I type in dos mode 'dir' command it is there - I can see 2 files listed: "phlash16.exe" and "BIOS.WPH".
For me it looks as I should type sth like: "phlash16 /s /x /force c:/BIOS.WPH" -to specify where the new bios file is?
What am I doing wrong?
In your forum I found that if I would like to upgrade my BIOS I should:
everything with preparing the USB bootable stick and...
- "Then, copy the BIOS update image that you want to update. (If you are unsure of where to get this, please post in our forums) For the award platform the bios file should be named bios.bin; for AMI name it bios.rom;
and for the Phoenix BIOS bios.bin"
- "Finally, reboot and select your USB as your boot DOS. Then, enter the following command based on your BIOS: (for a complete list of switches, consult our forums)
AWARD= awdflash bios.bin /py /sn /f /cc /r
AMI= afudos bios.rom /P /B /N /C /E /K /Q /REBOOT
PHOENIX=
phlash bios.bin"
Please let me know what should I do..
PS. I just put a 'new' processor to my laptop.
I had pentium m 2GHz and now I am running overclocked 1.8GHz > 2.4GHz thanks to the topic on notebokforums:
http://www.notebookforums.com/t/80879/a-...as5-to-gpu (I connected 2 pins on the processor and instead of 400MHz bus speed the processor works with 533MHz Bus
to the full happiness I just would like to enable the AHCI mode with your modded BIOS to get extra % of the performance
