KT7 Raid Help?

[cipher1]

Hi Guys, I'm getting the following error on boot.

BIOS ROM checksum error.

I just bought this motherboard last week and I'm running a Duron 650. I
haven't overclocked it or anything or even toyed with it. This morning when
trying to boot that message popped up. I tried to reflash the bios with no
luck.

I've tried the following strings.

awdflash kt7_ww.bin /cc /sn /cd /LD
awdflash kt7_ww.bin /cc /sn /cd
awdflash kt7_ww.bin

All with no luck. I've tried reflashing with the older kt7_wt.bin with no
luck also.

Any help would be greately appreciated Thanks!

Have you tried the jumper, on the motherboard, to reset the bios?

To reset the CMOS? Yeah I tried that one too...

Your motherboard battery might be dead, or just dislodged. check and/or replace that see if it goes away. one symptom that would cement this diagnosis is, does the date reset each time in bios as well?

Tried removing the battery...

Thing is once I get the error I can't get past it. If theres no floppy in the drive the system just locks there. I can't even get into the bios. It locks up right after the video card inits.
