I'm using it, doesn't seem different to me. I didn't read what was
"fixed" or didn't even see a "fixed" list.

Flashmenu complained that the file was the wrong file or something such as
that but I downloaded the bios and just pointed Flashmenu to it and it
flashed fine.
As has happened the last three flashes (probably because I have the onboard
NIC disabled in the bios) the onboard NIC bios menu options were not
available after the flash. after clearing the CMOS with the jumper, the
menu options returned.
No problems with the 2.1 bios as yet...

Thanks TomG for the reply. I don't know what's up with Flashmenu but it
seems to only work once the file is downloaded. The One Click Update seems
to be having some problems. Looks like Flashmenu needs an update as well
lol.

Hi,
where did you find Bios 21? I've just looked on the <a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://www.abit-usa.com" target="_blank">www.abit-usa.com</a> site
and the last Bios listed for IC7-G is Bios 20?
Flashmenu wouldn't work either warning file is missing. Has Bios 21 been
recalled?

maybe you didn't read my post and I admit that I did not have the error
message down pat but you can DL the file from the Flashmenu folder on the
Abit FTP site or you can now get it from several folders on my ftp site at
the address below. the error message has been happening to us for the last
several bios updates for some reason.

Ok, that's twice now you have been sarcastic to me when I have asked a
simple question. My reply is; screw off and try and find something
better to do with your life than spending it all in a motherboard news
group acting the know-it-all Abit mb God. And it's a self extracting
executable file and not zip file.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ --> >> Stay informed about: IC7-G Bios 21 |
