Hi Chris, I just came back to bring bad news: My machine just crashed again (running with the newly flashed BIOS A16).
I assume you got the copy process right (probably also using the 'dd' command). Otherwise you wouldn't have command.com kernel.sys and the bios update file "0780-A15.exe' on it). Next step would be to boot into this newly created FreeDOS environment, i.e.: - shutdown the PC - insert the thumb drive - be sure that your system has "boot to USB" enabled otherwise hit F12 (or so) to "select device to boot from" - set the current date (FreeDOS will prompt you) - start the BIOS update by typing "0780-A15.exe" - follow the steps on screen... - reboot cheers, John -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1402331 Title: System will periodically lockup with [drm:i915_hangcheck_elapsed] *ERROR* Hangcheck timer elapsed... render ring idle To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1402331/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
