Hi

I have an Intel D845GVSR motherboard which I use mainly for old DOS
work (the more recent mobo does not work as expected :-(   )

Ok, this board was having problems with the mouse and I wanted to
upgrade the bios, from the original version 3 to the latest version 20
at Intel site.

The upgrading went ok and everything worked well but no USB under Win
XP SP3!  (I need it to copy stuff from one machine to another).

I thought of going back and tried the bios version 5 (which said the
mouse problem has been corrected). The Intel bios burning program
asked me to confirm I really wanted to flash an older version and when
I hit ok the bios was flashed.

Now the computer does not boot. When I set the jumper to the
maintenance setting the bios settings screen comes up and it shows the
bios version as 5. But any change in the settings are not saved.

According to Intel, in the recovery mode the system is supposed to
read the *.bio file in a floppy or CD will be written to the bios. I
have tried *.bio files from nay versions both in CD and floppy but
have failed.

If any of you know a method to flash the bios please let me know. The
mobo is not dead as the bios settings do display in the maintenance
mode.

Thanks in advance for any help
