Take the cover of the computer and look inside. Peel the sticker of the BIOS chip (28 or 32-pin DIP IC with the BIOS brand sticker on it). (source: c't 2/97/110) Anything without a Window that doesn't have a 28 or 29 as the preceding numbers of the part #, is most likely a standard ROM.

All newer FIC motherboards ensure that upgrades are easily performed by incorporating the system BIOS in a FLASH Memory component. With a FLASH BIOS, there is no need to replace an EPROM component. Once downloaded, the upgrade utility fits on a floppy disc allowing the user to save, verify and update the system BIOS. The motherboard's BIOS is stored on a chip of one of two kinds: an EPROM Chip or an EEPROM chip (Flash EPROM). You can only flash a BIOS if you have a Flash EPROM chip. See similar questions...

Answer: Most commonly, something has gone wrong when attempting to "flash" update to the BIOS ROM. Common causes are: Some systems may issue a series of beeps from the speaker, and may access the floppy drive, but nothing else. See similar questions...

The exact chip position could be various between different mainboard-types. In most cases you will find a chip which has a colored label (e.g. AMI, AWARD). You can find it (see Picture) very often at the border of your Mainboard underneath the ISA/PCI/AGP-Slots. Another Position, mostly by PLCC-Chips, is on top of the ISA/PCI/AGP-Slots, or nearby the CMOS-Battery. See similar questions...

Always the same: Make sure that you unplug your power supply! Before removing the BIOS-Chip, prevent your PC components for Static Electricity! The DIL-Chip and his Socket have a marked position, on one of their short sides. Be carefull, a wrong inserting could damage the Chip and/or the Mainboard! Sending Cash inside your Delivery is fast, but not very secure. My Tip: crease the bank notes to smaller pieces and put Aluminium-Foil around it. See similar questions...

Check JP4 (see system board diagram); it's next to the BIOS. JP4 is the BIOS flash jumper. Make sure it's OPEN. If JP4 is closed, then the BIOS flash feature is LOCKED. See similar questions...

We feel that it would be good to point out what we have done to diminish the known nefarious acts of “skimming” data from the chip, “eavesdropping” on communications between the chip and reader, “tracking” passport holders, and “cloning” the passport chip in order to facilitate identity theft crimes. Skimming is the act of obtaining data from an unknowing end user who is not willingly submitting the sample at that time. See similar questions...
