I've recently updated the BIOS on my Chaintech VNF4/Ultra to version 4.0 (4/27/2005). However when I try to update the BIOS to version 5.0 the system hangs during the update process when trying to read the BIOS update file VN210603.BIN - the floppy drive starts reading the file but it never finishes and the update utility says "Please Wait" indefinitely. Note I am using the Award Flash update Utility AF859b.exe.
BIOS update protection is disabled, and as I mentioned before I successfully updated the BIOS to version 4.0 so I know how to do this. I've tried numerous troubleshooting methods including trying different RAM, reducing my memory speed, and disconnecting all internal and external devices but no luck. I am not overclcocking and all of my settings are set to Auto where applicable.
Will a newer version be available soon? Any assistance or tips to try are appreciated.
My Rig:
Chaintech VNF4/Ultra Revision 1.0
AMD Winchester 3200+
Asus X800XL Video
2x512MB PDP Patriot 3200 DDR
WD Raptor 74GB
BenQ 1625 DVD-RW
