Ok this is an old Abit BX6 board that had the latest bios on it already. I was trying to do a voltage hack (trying to get more that 1.7 volts for a celery 566 to go 850) to increase my voltage options in the 'softmenu'. I started the flash with the latest bios using AwardFlash 8.23 on a floppy disk. Started the flash, but it just says 'Please Wait'. There has been no 'progress bars/blocks' or anything. The floppy drive light is constantly lit. This has been going for about 30 minutes. I am scared to turn off the computer.

What should I do next?!

TIA!!

wait in a little while, if nothing good happens, maybe the diskette is faulty... then you'll have to turn it off... if the bios gets messed up and the system wont boot, then you'll have to do bios recovery... check your mobo manual, it should be there...
