Hello, I am new here and also new to bios in general. I have an old Acer Aspire X3200 with a DA078L AM2 motherboard.(yep that old) it was given to me a few years ago i use it as my DAW.
It used to access bios by pressing ESC preboot. Now all that comes up is "ACHI BIOS is installed!!", I have also tried to boot with no drives at all then it
says "ACHI BIOS not installed!!"
I have taken out battery to reset CMOS,
I have flashed bios with the two available Bios (To my knowledge!) with Winflash,
It seem to change correctly according to Windows System Information tool.
The only DOS version i can find is the older R01-A4
but when i flashed with that the program loaded up but cancelled as it stated "File Size Does Not Match"!
If anybody could give me any suggestions on how to fix i would be very grateful!
I need to boot to bios to get my pcie card recognized!
I would put pics on here, have not sussed how yet.
SOZ if I posted twice! and in the wrong place!!!!
