Can you try : .\syslinux -ma I: ... i guess & hope that current directory is not in your path !
Didn't try to create the key on Vista :/ but you need to create the key only the first time !

Edit : Sorry didn't see your path ... you are not in the right place i guess ;) see further

4/ click on Start/Run (or Execute, i can't remember the XP menu in English Version) and type cmd then you will have the DOS window (don't be afraid of this black window ... you need typing just one or two commands).
5/ type cd \KodaKey_v0.1_EN\INSTALL ... and you will be in the right place
6/ type syslinux -ma E: ... if you USB key was E: when you have formatted it (2mn ago)
7/ With your explorer ... drag&drop all the files&directories from C:\KodaKey_v0.1_EN\ to your key

the path is depending where you unzipped it :shrug:
In this sample, it was C:\ ;)

Maybe for you (assuming you uncompressed it in C:\Users\KALISGAMING) :
C:\Users\KALISGAMING>cd KodaKey_v0.1_EN\INSTALL
C:\Users\KALISGAMING\KodaKey_v0.1_EN\INSTALL>sysli nux -ma I:

New version Updated v0.2 !

Change Log for v0.2 :

-Bios 404 P5E WS PRO Added
-Bios 1201 Maximus Formula Added
-Bios 0401 de la Rampage Formula Added
-Bios 0612 not found for P5K Premium Black Pearl fixed

v0.3 ASAP :

- New graphical design
- P5B deluxe (all bios)
- Commando (all bios)

To upgrade to a newer version (if already got an old one)
Juste delete all the directories and syslinux.cfg file from the key ... and recopy all the content of the new archive in it ;)
That's really simple :D ... No need to format if you already used an old version ;)

If you want something else ... post here or PM :D

Thx dinos22 ;)

this is very kind of you but i am using an Asus AFUDOS to do all of this ... the purpose is to make flash easier for everyone.

I can't find 0703 for P5E3 Deluxe (0704 beta ... 0703 for P5E3 (20/11/07 too) but no 0703 for P5E3 Deluxe) :/

If someone got it ... just PM me ... it will be a pleasure to add it for dinos22 ;)

hi koda
http://vip.asus.com/forum/view.aspx?...id=1&model=P5K
in this thread you can know that this line for forced flashing
afudos/i(xxx.rom)/pbnc/n
and may be kill the mac of the mobo and mack unstabality in crossflashing
can you change this command line in your key in forcedbios
thanks alot for your new version

Well hema,
it appears to be really strange to consider that BIOS may impact Burn-in MAC Address !
I will look at this with caution.

However you can always choose 3 and type yourself your command line without /pbnc if you wish it ... it is the main reason for "the 3 choice" ;)

Hey koda
I have been trying so hard to update the ROM chip for Jmicron controller, but it just keeps saying that the Flash rom is not found.
Is there anyway to give Jmicron a new ROM

What if you use an easier solution:
A bootable CD with floppy emulation, eventually, a multiboot CD for so many bioses...

Easier for us, but it would be so hard to build the first time for you :D, but once done, it will be easy to update

Anyhow, many thanks for your key bundle

Hema, could you take a picture from your error message please and send me a pm with all explanations (MB & # of bios used from the key ... and anything useful) ... I will fix this very quickly for you if it is a bug ;)

This is not very difficult to do the same with a CD but update are not so easy for users ;) (you need to burn each time even a CD-RW)
Update the key is really simple ... you just delete all the files and copy the new ones instead !

The "complex thing" is to create the key the first time (format & bootloader :D) ... After that, this is really like a drive :D

An USB key is cheap and more flexible ... but i can think about a CD version too ;)

pls PM me your email and i will sent it to you as well :)

It would be great if you can do it. CDs are very affordable now. Most people will burn the version needed for their mb, and they can keep an archieve on HDD of updated iso images when you release them if they ever need them. But using a usb key will condamn the key, and every time you need to reuse the tool, you'll have to build the key again

Anyway, many thanks for taking the time to answer me, and even more thanks whenever you release an iso image :)
