So just use the bios that you linked above in your post Denniss? I noticed by the 5th PCI slot that I do have MI412(5) (put that in because the 5 isabout 1/2 the size of other chars). Oh, and it is a VB-601 board.

First let me apoligize for not reading the rules...I should have known better as I am a member of a few others...with the same rules...so if you let me let me explain my situation much more clearer...


Ok let me start back from the begining....
the system I am working on has:

an 800AMD duron prosessor
10 gig hard drive
one burner CD
one 52x CD rom
three sticks of 256 sdram
When I got it it had win XP on it but had just been infected with the I love you virus....when the guy installed a ran his virus program( not sure which one) he told me it erased alot of files....well I thought I would just renstall windows xp... when I tried it would get through coping files and then just hang on "windows is restarting your computer"....it would not get past that...so I told him to burn off all his important files and I would reformat and reinstall XP....Well it reformated alright but when i went to reinstall xp...it would say windows is restarting your computer" and still just HANG there...while it was going through the bios I noticed that is said "unknown flash type" so that made me think that there was something wrong with the bios...he also told me that someone else tried to flash the bios but failed....now I am not sure but I thought that maybe somehow it could have corrupted the bois somehow....but I have been getting lots of comment that if the bois was bad it would not come on...I was just wondering if the bios could be a little bad...so I have been trying everything I know to get the hard drive to set up....
Some things I have tried...
taking each memory stick out tring each one seperatly in each slot
I took out the modem
tried a different mouse
tried a different keyboard
took out the hard drive and put it on my system and it set up windows XP just fine with no problems.
unhooked both CD drives
shorted the bios
took out battery for a long while
took out bios chip for awhile

so I have just about run out of things to try....I have told the guy that he will probley have to get a new motherboard....but me being someone who likes a challange....I guess sort of a die hard problem solver....still wants to know WHY it is not working....anyway that is the whole story...hope some of this help solve my problem.....
Thanks
Ed

P.S. I have a picture of the error if someone wants me to send it to them..I took it with my camera...
Again I am SORRY for not reading the rules Embarassed

If the floppy drive light is always on this ussually means you have the cable the wrong way around on either the main board or floppy drive connector. I have even seen floppy drives (or at least one) where pin 1 is marked at the incorrect end of the connector. Also check that there are not any bent pins which are therefore not connecting.

If the BIOS tests the floppy drive on bootup but does not boot to floppy disks which boot fine in other machines, the problem could be if you have a floppy drive mould in the case which the floppy drive sits behind. Sometimes the drive can be too close to the mould, causing the button to always be contacting the drive and slightly ejecting the disk, meaning it is not seated correctly in the drive for access.

I have a 600e 2645-4KU with a battery that won't charge.

I followed pHuZ's directions but I got the following message after typing
Flash2.exe /u at the command prompt:

***** Starting Flash Update Utility *****
Please wait...
The FOL function is not enabled.
***** The progress ended. *****

I created a boot disk from my other WinXP Pro machine and added the files from the ibm bios boot disk.
