Default Bios flash help please! :(

Hi everyone, I recently got my 7750 BE, a 1.44mb floppy drive and some floppy disks.

I tried to flash my bios using Gigabytes Q-flash thing but it didnt work.

Can anyone provide a set of instructions (and links if neccesary) for me to flash my bios? I will give reps in return

is that your sig rig??i will give links to the proper bios maybe your bios image file is corrupt..or your bios update setting is set to disabled some boards uses an option whether to allow the updates for your bios or not..if it has one and is enabled in that case its useless to update since its enabled to protect your bios try disabling that and do the same process..

You need a CMOS reset. Shut down the PC, unplug the power cord from the back, flip the switch a few times, and remove the battery from the motherboard for a few minutes. Then re-insert the battery and plug it back in and reboot.
