Asus Vintage AE1 - HELP NEEDED

Nogimmix · 22 Apr 2006 at 00:17

Today I recieved my Asus Vintage AE1, along with a Sempron 64 3000.
Installed everything as normal, booted up and found I had difficulties in getting in to the Bios. After rebooting about 10 times I managed to get in to the bios but after restarting I had the same problem.

Also, a few times it came up with Bios Clock Error and also Bios Checksum error. :eek:

Do I have a defect AE1 or is there anything I can try?

Asus Vintage AE1
Sempron 64 3000
Geil Value 3200 Ram 2x 512mb
Seagate 120gig PATA Hard Drive

Many thanks.

Any idea on how to flash these as I do not have a floppy drive?

Also, on screen sometimes it comes up with: Cmos Battery Low

Thanks for the info Steve.

How do I make a bootable cd?

I managed to get hold of a floppy drive, stuck the new bios on a bootable disc, read it fine but came up with the following error

Original bios checksum error

Looks like it's going back to OCUK.
