I've done it half a dozen times and never had a problem, except when using two chips that weren't compatible - *POOF!* ....all this done at your own risk of course. |

Check the motherboard manual, and Google seek the "bios emergency recovery" method for the make of BIOS you have (for example, Award, AMI or Phoenix). Many BIOS have a boot block still functional, so you could follow diferections found in manual or on the 'net to create a floppy disk with the last known-good bios version on it (like the version it previously used). If all else fails, and the bios chip is removable, you can get someone to reflash your BIOS EEPROM chip or a new one for ~$10-25.. Dave |
