Noobie Mistake - Big Time

[eclipse219]

I have a 16b board, which required me to use FlashBios 3.0.3 which on the X3 was on banks 5678 OFF ON OFF OFF OFF. In my hurry to flash the X3 3294 16x Bios, I didn't set the switches to ON ON OFF OFF OFF and probably overwrote the FlashBios at 5678 with the X3 Bios. Leaving me with no usable flashbios on the chip. Is there any way this dumb noobie can get 3.0.3 back on the chip, say on banks 1234 overwriting 3.0.1 which is there. Is there a way to do this with EVOX?

Thanks

To my knowledge, only way is to put the chip into a non 1.6b xbox. Or hotswap with any other xbox.

If you can get to evox there is a flash utility on it... I've never used it though... so good luck!

how about the backup bios?

why not just boot to config live then switch banks and flash it that way. i do it all the time.

ya- good idea... boot to config live on 5678 then choose bios options > flash main rom > 1024k > bank 1234 > flash
