Question ??????????

I don't know about anyone else but I don't have a clue as to what the hell you are talking about. What is shocking and why does it have to be done without BIOS?? As far as I know NOTHING will run without BIOS. I live in Tempe so if you need help let me know.

Wild guess here, but are you saying that you want to flash your BIOS for some reason or another?

I think you mean you lost your bios (got deleted somehow?) and you want to be able to boot from floppy to flash the bios chip so you can get your bios back? If that's the case then you can't boot from floppy without a bios. You need to buy a new bios chip to put on your motherboard. At least I'm pretty sure you can't boot anything without a bios.

I am SURE nothing boots without the BIOS. BIOS = Basic Input Output System
What I am not sure about is what it is he is trying to do.



lexofaz,

Please explain what kind of help you need.
