You’re welcome mate

I haven’t done it for years & even then I used to flash in dos with a 1.44 floppy but If you have a removable bios chip I cant see why it wouldn’t work flashing in windows or from a USB stick or even from a win 98 boot disk & dos..... It may even work from the bios flash utility

Basically start your board with the good chip & once you are in a position to flash the bios either in dos/windows whatever hook out the good chip..... the PC will still run.... put in the bad chip & flash a new bios to it.

Maybe google bios hot swap/flash.

ahhh you mean while board is running oh ! didnt know that method but the bad part is how on earth i flash second bios cauz on the MIVE i have a button and whatever i do will be on good chip not bad chip that is my main concern...

to flash the bad one i have to hit the button first before start and move to the bad bios, and thats the point i cant boot, i used ROG to reprogram chip and wont start...

u got me ?

With the good bios chip you go to bios then replace it (in the same socket) with the bad chip and hot flash it

thanks dumo

so, i just make the PC boot with good bios, and when it booted i flash it on windows, as if i reset to go to EZ flash wont start right ?

or make the PC boot go to bios and take the bios out and put the one i buy on ebay and flash it ? this is what you mean ?

Yep, boot up go to bios with the good bios chip then go to ez flash. Replace it with the bad bios chip then flash it.
