1. Make sure your BIOS protect is OFF.
2. Try and remake the disc but add some padding (there is a tutorial on this)
3. Try HTML flashing (search for this one is how I did mone and was a breeze)
3. Good luch and let us know how it goes

make sure you have your dips set correctly.
if you flashed a 1mb bios try on on off off.

What bios are you flashing with? If you are using a version of 3.0.1 or 3.0.3... then you are doing it correctly. It comes to the same screen because you flashed over a bios with the same bios.

Try finding and using the x3 bios v1959.

Dips??

Hi,


Just wondering what the dips are and is it okay to put a dummy file on a cd even though the bios file is supposed to be 1 mg?


I have an x2 chip do I have Dips??

thanks
