PhoenixBIOS D686 on MS-6534 motherboard (Pentium 4) - need help please!!!

pjh733 · Mar 24, 2007, 12:11 PM

My sister has a Medion Pentium 4 with a MS-6534 motherboard, the BIOS appears to be corrupted as it boots to the Award BootBlock screen and reads "Detecting floppy drive A media".

Can anyone help?

I am assuming i will need a boot disk with the Award flash utility and new BIOS image?

Where can I get these? I'm really stuck.

Looks like this one can only be located via the Medion home (German) site... wonder if the BIOS is in German.

Unpack it to a boot floppy, and try offering it, maybe it will be usable as a refresh / update if the BIOS has been corrupted, as it appears the bootblock procedure is looking for a BIOS floppy

You could always visit the MSI website for the BIOS

Hi.

Im having the same problem. MS-6540 mobo with SiS chipset, "BIOS ROM CHECKSUM ERROR". I can't see what version of bios my bord has as it doesn't get booting that far. Please help!

Tx

Hi again.

Re: the bios rom checksum error, i downloaded the motherboard bios update file and flashed the bios, worked 100%. Feeling quite chuffed with myself since this was the first bios flash i did.
