Title: Corrupt Bios Duox2
Post by: justtaint on November 24, 2009, 10:02:00 AM
If you installed using a pinheader, the easiest thing would be to buy a new chip and just flash one bios at a time.  Seriously, why would you flash two bios' and then check to see if it worked?

Do things one at a time, that way you know exactly when you screwed up.
Why do you need a VGA bios and a regular one?

I thought VGA BIOS didn't work on 1.6 consoles.  blink.gif


... and it should have been a 512k BIOS per bank (or 1Mb for both).

alex, you need to rewire the switch and disable it to use 1MB bank on the duo, it can be done however.


I meant you can build a 1MB BIOS and flash both banks at once (512k per bank), but it's better to flash one bank at a time in case of unforeseen errors (like what he just did).
