Hey folks,
Got a dead mobo that won?t POST, got the blank screen and fan running,
but no (a) drive. Problem is, it was a refurb OEM from HP, and
everyone knows the support we get from them. And I?m not paying for a
6month support contract which is going to get me nowhere! My next
step tonight is to disconnect everything but the CPU, 1 stick RAM,
Keyboard, VID card, and see if it posts tonight. Then hopefully I can
connect the flop drive and flash the BIOS. Which is actually why I
got to this point in the first place.
My question to anyone is:
GOT ANY OTHER IDEAS?
A close relative to this board as a retail from Asus is the P4G800-V.
I found some guys who actually flashed the BIOS successfully with the
rom image for this board and the flash utility on a boot disk. And
they said a reflash back to HP specs could be done in the reverse.
Well, I wouldn?t be here if it did!
Heres the mobo at HP:
