Asus A7N8X-E Deluxe and BIOS 1009 (I DESPERATELY NEED IT!! PLS HELP!!)
Hallo, I have a problem with an Asus A7N8X-E Deluxe motherboard I've
just bought. I would like to know if anyone of you can send me a copy of the BIOS version 1009 for this motherboard. I got my motherboard together with BIOS 1009, but as soon as it started to gave me problems with WinXP and SATA drives I decided to flash it bacward to 1008, but there was a power outage in the middle of operations (!!@$#%!!) and the PC suddenly rebooted leaving me with Award Bootblock Bios 1.0 asking for a disk with a valid BIOS file to reflash. Now the problem is that only the original 1009 BIOS is a valid bios for this flashing operation (or this is what Award Bootblock Bios v1.0 thinks... I believe that there's some sort of checksum in the Award Bootblock BIOS because with all the other BIOSes I've tried the AWDFLASH utility refuses to wrok and prints: "BIOS-Lock String Error. The BIOS file doesn't match with your original version" or something like that...). Moreover, after some googlin', I've read on some forum posts that the problem is the EXACT bios version that was present before the flashing, that exact version MUST be used to reflash the BIOS. I've already tried each and every other BIOS for the A7N8X-E Deluxe found on the web, and none of them obviously worked, but I wasn't able to find the original 1009 BIOS because Asus pulled it from his site and no other mirror retained it. But maybe someone of you still have it and so I thought that maybe not everything is lost. Would you please send me a copy of that file ? My email address is Thanx in advance, Bye ^_^ P.s. on my BIOS eprom there's a label with the following code: AN8E5 1009 .... |

There is no 1009 version on the Asuz web site for this board. The latest
release is 1008 -- John Crawford Canadian "EH" and my second car is not a dog sled |
