Bios for computer

[Vidi]

Then they say Ati is better....

 

Performance/cost wise, ATI is better. Proven many a times. If you're trying to bash ATI over this issue that they know about and are working on, then you clearly don't know about the error in the nVidia drivers a few weeks ago. It actually killed your graphics card. I dunno about you, but a massive cursor > £100-200+ graphics card dying.

Actually, to me all the cards are the same, but people on this forum are biased towards Ati saying it's way better.

 

All their cards are not the same. For performance vs cost, ATI is better than nVidia at the moment and has been sine their 4*** series cards. nVidia's latest cards aren't anything special at all either.

K, so now it's totally [bleep]ed up...

 

I was looking around for solutions to fix the problem, including the @BIOS program, where I accidently saved a bios file, and told the computer to update my bios from this. Now, my computer can't find my harddisk, the other harddisk is apparently bugged, and I can't install windows on the 2nd one.

 

I have contacted a very experienced and skilled computer-guy (lol) who told me to try and put the bios settings to both default and optimized defaults, but this doesn't solve my problem.

 

Is there any way I can fix this by myself, or do I need to send it to reparation?

Can you get into the BIOS at all? If you can, revert to default settings. If that doesn't work download the BIOS drivers of the Gigabyte website (make sure you get the correct model, obviously) and put them on a USB stick. I believe Gigabyte boards, the P55 ones atleast come with the ability to flash the BIOS from a USB stick. If you cannot get into the BIOS at all you might have a rather serious problem and may have to send your mobo to Gigabyte or buy a new one. I dunno though.

I can get into bios during the boot of the computer, but I've tried reverting to both default and optimized settings, and nothings changed.

Now when I found the right drivers, I realised that you need to format your USB, which I did, but now my Q-flash tells me that my USB isn't formatted, even though I did it at least 2 times.

Oh man, if only that happened a few days ago.. :cry:

Is your USB stick the right "format" ? Meaning, is it FAT32 or NTFS. Your BIOS might only accept one one of them. USB sticks are usually FAT32, I'd expect the BIOS to only accept NTFS but I may be wrong.

[gremmy]

I formatted it as FAT32. Should I try NTFS, or is there a risk that this will [bleep] anything up even more? Cause if there is, I'm not gonna bother ._.
