Check online for the mobo manual and read it to see if there is such a jumper. You can download the manual here: [url]http://www.ecs.com.tw/ECSWebSite/Products/ProductsDetail.aspx?detailid=733&CategoryID=1&DetailName=Manual&MenuID=44&LanID=9[/url] Just copy the link to your browser address bar and make sure there are no breaks in the string. You can also navigate to the ECS hompage at [url]http://www.ecs.com.tw/ECSWebSite/Index.aspx?MenuID=0&LanID=9[/url] and enter the mobo model number or Google on "ecs.com.tw" to get there. Flashing the BIOS can render a computer inoperable if not done correctly so consider having a shop do it for you if you have any doubts about doing it yourself. |

| Re: Updateing bios Carl You are not familiar with doing this(just by reading your post) Bring it to a reputable shop and not a big store one like Office Depot or Wallmart but to a computer shop that only specializes with computers and let them do it for you. One mistake here and you are up the proverbial creek as they say -- Peter Please Reply to Newsgroup for the benefit of others Requests for assistance by email can not and will not be acknowledged.

| Re: Updateing bios Get and read the manual from [url]http://www.ecs.com.tw/ECSWebSite/Downloads/ProductsDetail_Download.aspx?detailid=733&DetailName=Manual&DetailDesc=NF650iSLIT-A%28V1.0%29&CategoryID=1&MenuID=73&LanID=0[/url] Thw jumper is clearly shown and explained on pages 4, 5 and 9. The procedure explained on page 50 is a general one for all motherboards.

Download the manual and read it to see if there is such a jumper. That's the only way any of us could know. |
