Hi,

 

You can download BIOS on one machine and install to other machine (MUST be for that machine) by copy or move downloaded file to a flash drive (USB thunb drive) and use it to install on other machine.

This looked like it should work, but for my mistake i messed it up. i started the BIOS up grade on the other computer and it looked like it was not doing any thing so by mistake some how i interrupted the process. Now i can not set any thing in by BIOS. Is this BIOS totally corrupte now? Am now DEAD ? can any one help?
