I have two Gigabyte boards with bad flashes:rolleyes:

Anyone out there with a DPXDW-P or DPXDW feeling adventurous enough to hotflash a couple bios chips?

Four more CPU's waitin' to crunch....
 
I've sucessfully hotflashed the bios for an Asus A7N8X-Deluxe using an A7N8X-X board, there is a switch with the awdflash utility to force the flash regardless of what board its in, i dont think youd need to flash it in specifically a GA7DPXDW board, try it in another board with an acceptable BIOS socket.

I actually got desperate with an Iwill Xeon board that way. Tried to flash an Iwill DPI533 bios chip in an Asus A7M266D:D

Bios flash program just giggled at me though:rolleyes:

Not to laugh at your misfortune, but that story made me giggle too. ;)

Fold On!

did you find the commandline switch that forces the flash even if the checksum of the flash file doesnt match the bios?
