Trying to update BIOS but need an MS/DOS environment
I have a problem with my graphics card (new) where it doesn't give a video signal through the DVI connection until Windows loads the driver. At this point it works fine. Also, if I connect through the card's HDMI O/P to my TV, I do get video. I've tried the card on another system and it works fine through the DVI O/P.
Since I've tried everything i can think of including updating the VBIOS of the card, all I'm left with is to update the motherboard BIOS. Since the latest BIOS has a file size of 2MB and the inbuilt flash tool only supports 1MB BIOS files, I need to use the MS/DOS tool that comes with the new BIOS file. This has to be run in MS/DOS so I'm wondering if I can run it if I boot into the Command Prompt safe mode, and if so will I see my hard disks and/or a USB stick?
Thanks,
George
