Re: Upgrading an old Bios

thanks guys, my mainboard is a micro-star MS-6534 and the reason for trying to flash the bios was that the current bios doesnt see all of my new 200ghz seagate hard drive.

I tried to find a free upgrade but kept getting directed to the esupport web page. they were offering flash bios upgrade for $29.95USD( £15.66) and for that you get a new bios plus the flash loader, sent by email.
I tried to flash the bios as instructed but a got a message that the bios ram was write protected.
hence my oringinal question, How do you remove the the write protectection from bios ram?

Further to my last post it would appear that pc world who made this medion pc have installed some kind of bios protection, as i purchase it new back in 2002 the support for this model seems have dried up.
