What can I do if my BIOS becomes corrupt somehow?

 

You may try the following methods step by step to recover your BOIS if you have a duplicate board:

  1. Power on another computer with the exact same mainboard as the dead one.
  2. Boot from A: in pure DOS mode without any resident programs.
  3. Take off the EEPROM carefully from the good mainboard when it boot up completely under pure MS DOS mode.
  4. Put your destroyed BIOS on the exact same mainboard.
  5. Run awdflash.exe to reprogram the BIOS as normal process. Ex, A:\awdfalsh *.bin /py /sn /cc /cd /cp(Enter)

BTW, you have to pay attention to the direction of the EEPROM chip, when you put the BIOS chip onto BIOS socket. If the direction is reversed, the BIOS chip will burn down. If you are not familiar with these procedures, do not know how to do it, or don't have an exact same board. Please just contact your supplier or our branch office near you for help.
