I have a DFI P2XBL REV.D1 motherboard and I cannot get it to flash.. I have the AWARD flasher utility and the proper .bin file on the floppy that I try after using a bootup disk.. Every time I try it the thing says .bin file cannot be found .. I have tried many different floppies but
nothing works... Has anyone here any experience with this model board?? Do i need to disable something??

first are you telling it the whole file name...? (*.bin) if not try that... Also is the floppy drive light coming on when you indicate the bin file...? I know this sounds crazy but have you written down the entire file name to type in...? (sometimes a 0 can be a O or 1 might look like a lower case (L) this is an easy mistake...) Not trying to insult you just trying to help... ;)


One other thing but doubtful...? Is the bios lock enabled...? (inside the bios...)
