BIOS Issues
Where can I find the BIOS revision of my mainboard?
It will be displayed on the up-left corner on the screen during boot-up. It will
show as your board type followed by the revision number, such as
kvxa_2BA1 (meaning BIOS revision 2BA1 for the SY-K7V Dragon plus!
board) or 6BA+ IV_2AA2 which means SY-6BA+ IV motherboard with
2AA2 BIOS.
Where can I find the latest BIOS of my motherboard?
Please go to the technical support page of one of the SOYO websites
(Taiwan: http://www.soyo.com.tw
, US: http://www.soyousa.com), and look
up your motherboard to find the latest BIOS revision.
After flashing the BIOS, my system will not boot-up.
1. Try clearing the CMOS.
2. The BIOS chip is defected due to unsuccessful flash, contact your
nearest SOYO branch for re-flashing.
Is there a way to reprogram my BIOS after an unsuccessful flash?
No other way, you need to send back the BIOS ROM to your nearest SOYO
branch for re-flashing
