Hi, How can I update my BIOS chip: Model Shuttle Spacewalker MS51,BIOS ID: et-MS51-C-00, BIOS Type:Award Software Inc. BIOS Date: 02/05/2002 Chipset ID: Chip (SiS650/961) OEM Info: MS51S004 02/05/2002 I am waiting for your answer. Thanks, Carl Nacsin

I suggest to visit the manufacturer's website. If manufacturer has changed BIOS or Update the BIOS, the patches or new BIOS will be available there.

Bios updates should only be done when absolutely necessary because, often, they run in problems and you then have no computer since your bios is now messed up. If you still want to do it get the upgrade bios from the mo bo manufacturer and use software that will also backup what you have in case of disaster. A word to the wise.

This problem can be caused by several things. First, are the memory chips exactly identical (brand, type, size, etc.)? If not, that will definitely cause the problem. Second, how many memory slots are there? If you have four, check the manual and make sure you're putting the memory in the correct slots. Some Mobo's require that you put chips in slots A1 and B1 and not A1 and A2. Also, some Mobo's have DDR slots and DDR2 slots, so make sure you're putting the right kind of memory into the proper slots. Some people fudge the memory by putting 400 mhz memory into slower slots, and that works one chip at a time - but if you install a second, identical chip, the system will fail. If all else fails and you've met these conditions, check the type of memory to be sure of the proper fit (use manufacturer's recommended brands and numbers) or try a different chip in the second slot. One chip could be bad.

goto their website and download the latest bios for your system.

put in your operating system and this should do it you. please leave a rating.

typically their should be instructions specific to your motherboard model at the manufacturers website. You will need to have downloaded the new bios.rom file and a small application that does the flash itself.

Usually you wont ever need a bios update unless dealing with enthusiast hardware which is brand new hardware that has just been sold and needs updates regularly.

I refused to deal with this problems
Thank you for your attention
