I have XP Pro installed and currently use the NJ BIOS which has been fine - until I wanted to use a USB port. Windows claims the BIOS does not provide sufficient info to configure the port. I have tried flashing the QQ, RU and RV BIOS's but get the same problem every time - XP hangs halfway through the boot process. In safe mode the last file it loads is AGP440.SYS before going to sleep.
Anybody know what I have to do to get the latest BIOS to work with XP Pro?
XP Pro fails to boot using latest BIOS
Hello there!
Have a look at this.

Then let us know what your EC10 capacitor is rated at.

The mainboard revision information is on a white label, on the outside face of the ISA slot that is next to the edge of the mainboard. You can use the reflective side of a CDROM to read the information. The "AMS/1085CD/9930" information would be the Q6 voltage regulator. The EC10 capacitor sits between the two CPU sockets near the edge of the mainboard.sroberts wrote:Accessing the back of the motherboard is problematic - so not sure what version the board is - capacitor is printed with AMS/1085CD/9930 if that helps. Thanks for the lead.
I would suggest, then, that you replace EC10 with a 1500uF, 6.3V capacitor.
This has been known to solve numerous problems with badly behaved BP6s, mine included.
