Thanks Bruce but when I visit: http://usa.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=ogZlrSeVzUh9MKLO&content=download BIOS (5) [BIOS History] and I download the latest BIOS file how do I install it without being able to launch windows? Alternatively I could download: BIOS-Utilities (1) which is their AFUDOS utility which requires me to boot the system in DOS but I don't know how to do that either! When I select it to boot with command prompt it stalls after the files are loaded and returns to window to select how it should boot up.
I have a very old windows xp disk but I really don't want to use it as it will install IE 6 which requires me to manually uninstall all the IE 8 & 7 updates and files before it will register with MS. I fear using it will only compound my problems!
In the BIOS I see [WDC WD5000AACS-00G] beside SATA 1 which I presume is the hard drive. I think that it is starting to boot from the hard drive because the Windows XP screen initially pops up and appears to be loading then the 'no hard drive detected' message appears in DOS format. I would like to update the BIOS but don't think I can do that from the BIOS SETUP UTILITY. I need to be able to get to windows or DOS to do that but I seem to be unable to boot either. Do you know how to boot in DOS?
