And if you are flashing a proper BIOS (since you weren't clear if FlashBIOS 3.0.3 is that you were using to flash the chip or trying to flash to the chip) what BIOS bank do you have selected? Default config on a fresh X2.6 chip is FlashBIOS 3.0.1 on bank 1 and FlashBIOS 3.0.3 on bank 2. If you're only flashing a 512KB BIOS (like X2CL 5035 as DJ recommended) it is possible you simply need to switch to bank 1 to see the BIOS you flashed. FlashBIOS always starts writing on bank 1, regardless of which bank you boot from or have selected.

No disrespect, but...

Didn't I read this in Bald Bouncer's Mailbox?


... I flashed with flashbios 3.0.3 and all went well, then I rebooted and keep getting the damn blue screen every time...


*or something of the sorts***

He he!
