Hello, thanks for your help

I found this in the readme file for bios update in the original_bios.exe

5. ADVANCED OPTIONS
===================
Intel Express BIOS Update includes options for advanced users.
These options allow you to redirect the source locations of
the BIOS files. The usage models section lists examples of
how to form commands. The command line options section lists
the command types and provides a short description of each
option.

Note: -a = argument in the commands below and used to pass
command line options from InstallShield's*
PackageForTheWeb* to the installer for Express BIOS
Update.

GUI usage models --

<program.exe>, for example: update.exe
This command performs the typical complete BIOS
update with the included files in a graphical
user interface.

<program.exe> -a [force] [path <path>]
For example: update.exe -a path C:\BIOS
This command performs a complete BIOS update with
the BIOS files stored in the path you specify with
graphical user interface. This is a single use
redirection of the BIOS files' source location.
Note: This feature is only for advanced users and
should not be used unless the user has a
thorough understanding of directories and
multiple BIOS locations.
Note: Specified file names and directories
cannot include spaces.

But I dont understand very well how to send the arguments, please help me
:-) , I run the cmd window, open the directorie Bios where I put the
"original_bios.exe" (C:\Bios\orginial_bios.exe)

then I write this : C:\Bios\origininal_bios.exe -a force path C:\Bios

the install window open but an error appears, I have to do this on cmd
window? or how I sent the arguments to the install?

:-)

Hello thanks for your time,

I flash the bios again with the original BIOS the older version, but this
operation can't resolve the problem :-(

Sorry if this problem don't have nothing to do with the XP but I dont know
where I can ask for help, if you know other site, please let me know, and
then you would be helping me, instead of complaint :-)

All the possible methods are documented here. "iFlash" requires a
bootable device, and the device must be big enough to hold the
boot files and the .bio file. The instructions give the syntax
for the command as well. There are also instructions on how to make
a bootable USB flash or a bootable CD image.

He's a troll. Ignore his post(s).

You asked in the right newsgroup. This is for hardware. Your computer is
hardware. The BIOS has to do with your computer.

Ignore the troll. He doesn't get it.

How about the mainboard manufacture website? That would be more
relevant than HERE. Other than that, learn to do your OWN research.

Too bad it has NOTHING to do with XP (you did notice that in the title
of the group, right? Oh, guess not, you ignorant twit).

Oh, and the reply goes HERE, you top posting idiots.

The problem could be with the power button itself..
