I am having trouble flashing my friend's Tiger MP motherboard to remove annoying NMI blue screen errors. The thing is, it will never let me flash. Keeps telling me of some error, or can't find the ROM file, or something about HiMem Manager and then it won't let me flash the bios. It will tell me to press any key to exit. What is the step by step way to correctly flash the bios of this board?

Tyan's site gives no info on how to flash it correctly. Someone please help!

And you need to boot off a floppy disk that doesn't have any memory managers loaded. Yours does which is why it is giving you an error about himem.sys being loaded.

When you boot the disk, at the A: prompt dont just type phlash, or phlash exe and then try to flash.. you have to type in the whole enchilada at once. Example

Phlash 2460v104.rom
