hi guys I just attempted to flash my epia M10000 with the official latest bios from via (and their stupid awfl<something> program) and the mobo is dead.
what can I do to revive the thing ?

Is the bios chip mounted on the pcb or socketed?

if you have no backup, your best bet is to find another one.

well, turns out the thing wasn't dead after all. after a good night sleep, I woke up and mechanically went and wiggled the "erase CMOS" jumper on the "dead" EPIA M-10000. turns out it seems the VGA subsystem in the bios is buggy as hell, and selecting things like panel-size makes the thing boot but not output anything on the VGA.
Thanks everyone for their help.
