AMI BIOS Recovery
- Download the latest version or your choose version of BIOS file for your computer or motherboard from the manufacturer’s support site.
- Rename the downloaded file to AMIBOOT.ROM.
- Copy the file to a floppy disk.
- Insert the floppy disk to the floppy drive.
- Turn on the system.
- The system should automatically access the floppy drive (indicated LED will light up). If no floppy access occurs press and hold Ctrl-Home to force update. Follow any on screen instruction to restore and recover the good BIOS from the floppy disk.
- When 4 beeps are heard or a reboot prompt you may remove the floppy disk.
- Restart the computer.
Note: If USB keyboard doesn’t work, try usins a PS/2 keyboard. Sometimes, taking out the CMOS battery to clear the configuration settings or resetting the CMOS jumper switch to clear the CMOS may help too. Only the BIOS file is needed. For AMI BIOS recovery, the floppy doesnt have to be bootable and no flash utility needs to be used.
IMPORTANT: If you have an HP BIOS and the recovery method above was
unsuccessful, please rename the recovery BIOS to HPBIOS.ROM and try
again.
nice
I try the same step with my Biostar TA790GXE v6.1 mainboard with no sucess. I use an USB Flash (256MB) instead of FDD. Flash Recovery read the USB but it say “FLASH ROM not detected”

Any one can help. Many THX.
I already try with USB FDD with no sucess.
The USB Flash device normally needs to be in the primary USB slot on your motherboard in order for detection to be successful with the name “AMIBOOT.ROM” For more support, please consult our forums.
Many THX for your help but I already tried with old traditional FDD with no sucess. Same above link screen. Also tried with all USB port, none working.
Guys,after trying to update my laptop`s bios it shut down and doesnt want to start.No led,no fan,just dead…Any chance to fix this home?!?Or should I go to a service to re-write my bios ?
Please identify your BIOS type and try the procedure for your BIOS type. If it doesn’t work we’d recommend you take it into a nearby shop to have it serviced. (Either solder new chip on or order new motherboard).
