Bios Reprogramming?

[Decker87]

I'm looking for a good deal on a bios reprogramming service...I tried contacting T-Mod, but he hasn't responded in three days and time is money.

So anyway, are there any other good services out there?

PS: How do I remove the bios...do I just...yank?

It's called flashing. Does your computer post? If it does, you may be able to flash it yourself. What model is the mobo?

No, no it does not post, and I cannot reflash it.

EDIT: To put it simply, I need someone with an EEPROM burner to reprogram my bios chip. Is there anyone else that does this besides TMod?<P ID="edit"><FONT SIZE=-1><EM>Edited by Decker87 on 11/25/04 04:18 PM.</EM></FONT></P>

Yes, there are several companies for that service. But you'll have to look for them.

What initially caused the problem?

In all honesty, it's completely my fault. I thought I had revision 1.2 of my motherboard, so I downloaded that bios and flashed it without even checking what revision it really is. It's actually.

That's surprising about T-mod. I e-mailed him on a Sunday night and explained my problem. He got back to me in less than an hour. I shipped him my chip on Wednesday. I had it back in my hands the following Monday. I live on the East Coast he's in Cali. I sent him several e-mails (several of which were stupid questions) during the whole ordeal and he replied to all of them.

How long ago was this?

EDIT: I've called every computer repair place in about 15 miles and none of them have an eeprom burner. Are there any computer repair 'chains' that anyone knows of that do this?<P ID="edit"><FONT SIZE=-1><EM>Edited by Decker87 on 11/26/04 06:13 PM.</EM></FONT></P>

you could call the mobo company, i did that once with an abit, i just sent them a 12 dollar check and a letter telling them what i needed and they sent a programed chip about a week later.
