Titolo: K7s5a Bios update?

Scusate la mia incompetenza ma non riesco ad aggiornare il bios con
l'ultima versione " sperando che serva a qualche cosa!!!",
Quando faccio partire da dos l' utilità flash, mi da errore, file non
trovato, questo succede al terzo step.Non so più cosa fare, nel
dischetto di avvio ci sono solo i file di sistema  l'utilità flash e
il niovo bios, dove sbaglio?
Forse la Mb ha un jumper da settare? a me non sembra "ma questo è
relativo!!!"
se si quale jumper non credo quello per cancella re la CMOS.Forse non
preparo il disketto di avvio correttamente? ( Formatto il disketto
facendo copiare i file di sistema)
Aiutatemi!!!!
Ciao

Accertati che nel Bios sia attiva la voce Bios Update e che sia
eventualmente
disattivata la voce System Bios Shadow o simile.
Ciao.

6. How do I flash the BIOS?
Every time the BIOS is flashed there's the risk of something going
wrong, and you could end up with a corrupt BIOS. My advice is, that
unless you're experiencing some kind of problem, leave the BIOS alone.
If you have to upgrade your BIOS, carefully follow the steps below:
You will need two files to upgrade your BIOS. You'll need the amiflash
utility, and the .rom file of the new BIOS you want to update to. 
The BIOS flash utility is called AMINF329.EXE. Download AMINF329.EXE
HERE (
http://205.158.63.158/bios/aminf329.exe
).
Please note that the BIOS distributions are supplied as either .zip or
.exe files. You can use WinZip to extract the .rom file from the .zip
package. In case it's an .exe, just run the executable and it will
automatically extract the .rom file. 
Copy the flash utility and the .rom to your HARD DRIVE or a CDROM. 
(N.B. lo puoi fare anche con un floppy, ma stai molto attento che non
abbia dei settori danneggiati) 
To use amiflash, you will need to be in DOS and no memory management
and/or drivers should be loaded. If you're using DOS, Windows 9x or
Windows ME, do a clean boot. If you're using Windows 2000 or Windows
XP, you'll have to make a boot disk. 
Restart the computer, and do a clean boot or use a boot disk. 
Go to the directory where you placed the two files. 
Type "aminfxxx xxxxxx.rom" substituting with the BIOS file you wish to
flash. Ex: to flash BIOS ver. 010827 using amiflash 3.26, you would
type something like "aminf326 010827.rom". The particular files names
may vary for different BIOS or amiflash versions. 
Press enter to start flashing. If you get an error at this point, read
here. 
Press "DEL" to enter BIOS setup, set you configuration and save it.
Reboot.

11. What if I get an error during flashing?
These are the errors most often encountered while trying to flash the
BIOS. If you get one of this errors don't panic, your board has not
been flash yet, so go ahead and take care of the problem or reboot if
you need to. 
Amiflash locks up
This probably means the flash utility is corrupted, or you didn't
perform a clean boot. Download amiflash again and try placing it in
the hard drive or a cdrom, instead of a floppy.
CRC Error
This means you're probably trying to flash from a floppy disk, and the
disk is corrupted. Place the files in the hard drive or a cdrom. Read
over the instructions on how to flash the BIOS.
Chipset/Flash part isn't available. The function will be invalid.
This usually happens when you try to flash the BIOS under Windows
9x/ME/2K/XP, you need to do it under DOS. Read over the instructions
on how to flash the BIOS.
Error 2 - File does not exist
This means you're telling amiflash to flash a file that doesn't exist.
Make sure you include the .rom extension. Ex: "aminf326 010827" gives
an error because the BIOS file is named 010827.rom. The correct syntax
would be: "aminf326 010827.rom".
Error 9 - BIOS tag is incorrect
This can mean two things, either your BIOS file is corrupt or you're
trying to flash a BIOS for a different motherboard. Corruption is
unusual but can happen. Delete the BIOS .rom file and download it
again. If you're flashing from a floppy disk, download the file again,
place it in the hard drive and flash from there.
