Sorry if this is in the wrong forum, but it was kind of a cross-platform issue.
So I wanted to mess around with some MILD OC'ing of a new PC i just got recently, but I always hear that the first thing you should do is to update your BIOS.
I discovered a utility released by ASUS (my mobo manu.) that allows you to update the bios in windows, so i snagged it. I manually downloaded the update to my asus a8n5x board from the manu's website, then pointed the updater at the bios file.
I chose to flash the board, then reboot so changes could take effect.
Now when the computer is turned on, the bios shows up for a moment, only to show the message "BOOT DISK ERROR". The problem is, I don't have a floppy drive!
I tried to boot from the mobo's included CD w/ default driver, but it continues to give me the boot disk error, how can I get the mobo to boot from my c: ?
What should I do? I hope I'm not stuck having to re-format.
