Just wandering whether you managed flushing F9 (or maybe F10)
and how that went. I am in the same boat (currently on F7) - I did
flush F7 to F9 but XP would not start after that (I would briefly
see XP blue screen of death and then the machine would reboot). I did
not however install any new SII drivers but just flushed BIOS F9 via
@BIOS from
within windows. I later backed out to F7 (one problem I have with
F7 bios is that the machine will not complete the boot process unless
I hit a key - seems any key will do - unless I do that the machine
cycles between printing the nvidia video card message and the monitor
message - once I hit a key then that loop is exited and the boot
process continues normally).
Thanks for any info or comments anyone may have regarding this or
any additional info/advice regarding F9 and/or F10 with XP and SII3112
controller.
