Kilosthere is a linux app that can do it that i havent tried12:29
Kilosflashrom12:29
Kiloswb inetpro  12:29
inetprothanks Kilos12:34
smileKilos: I put my UEFI image on a usb disk and then used the builtin UEFI Flash utility from my BIOS :P12:39
smileYou have to know that, though :/12:40
smilebut now a giant bug was fixed :D12:40
smileAnd my pc boots quicker as before12:40
smile:)12:40
Kilosoh ya smile you hit a luck if the motherboard has the flash utility built in then its easy from windows xp12:41
Kilosthere are bad things that actually corrupt bois 12:42
smileKilos: well I didn't need Windows at all, but to be sure I booted from it ;)12:42
Kilosi have ians mb here that is worth nothing because of something that got in12:42
Kiloslol12:43
smilefirst by BIOS complained it was a bad version, then it did not want to boot from USB stick :/12:45
smilethen it booted and then it complained again12:45
smileI redownloaded for another model, used the built in flash and it worked :o12:45
Kilosthe bugs that hit bios cause funny things to happen12:46
Kiloslike pc cant see cdrom or floppy or usb's12:46
Kilosthere are straps on the mb that can wipe the bios but you gotta have the firmware available12:47
Kilosand another bug renames the hdd's to just a number then bios cant see them12:48
Kilosthats why i dont want any windows os near this pc12:54
