I tried following this 9800pro to XT flashing guide from Bit tech
http://forums.bit-tech.net/showthread.php?t=61937
I downloaded Flashrom and the bios and every thing that I needed. My only problem? I dind't have a floopy drive for a boot disc.
SO! I made a Dos boot disc using the default settings in Nero, used that to reboot. Then i went to C: drive, then the folder with all the stuff in called "flash" , then used the command "Flashrom -s 0 9800pro.bin" as asked BUT!!
Text came up saying something "Dos 4GW run protected blaa blaa" and below it a small block white pointer appeared and kept flickering on and off.
Ive tried it a few times now, and no matter how long I leave it, it just stayes like that. More to the point the keyboard also freezes up and I havent a clue what to do.
Please help!
