Bios Mods -The Best BIOS Update and Modification Source

so there is BIOS.wph and phlash16.exe

Try using the following command:

phlash16 /P /MFG /C /X /B:BIOS.wph

With this command, you will not see the progression of the BIOS flash (the graphical output may be causing issues). The machine should reboot automatically. Wait at minimum 30-60 minutes if it does not (preferably longer).

Running the command now Thanks for your help

No problem! Let me know if it works.

How long should it take until it restarts? I can keep it on for 8 hours long if you like?

I Will do hope Windows 98 can remain reliable as ever

It should only take 5-10 minutes, 15 max. I would still leave it on for much longer to be sure it isn't lagging. If you can, leaving it on for a few hours would definitely rule out lagging, although it is unlikely that this would be an issue.

hmmm, well it is still going. Wondering if there is any security set to stop this kind of BIOS flashing? found this article https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/documents/ht000618
there are loads of different files compared to the phlash16 I am using.

Version incompatibility is a very common issue.

Try running the WinPhlash utility.

Be sure that you do not have other programs running while using this program. You must be extra cautious when flashing the BIOS from Windows.
