When i run the flash utility in flash_and_burn directory, it check for the rom chip but doesn´t find it. At the end it give this message : "EEPROM not found".
I´m using a bios savior RD1 but i think it shouldn´t do problems.
Can i use this utility with an epia-m or should i use an other one? -------------------------------------------------- Oreka ! Nous sommes l'internet moins cher ! Surfez 25% moins cher avec http://www.oreka.com

They key question: is flash write enabled
Philippe send me the output of flash_rom

I think the flash write enabled, I use this :
setpci -s 0:11.0 40.b=54
I've read that this should enable writting, but i'm not sure.
Here is my flash_rom output:

Mine is a 39SF020A (it's written on the chip)

Philippe,

It could be something else. I haven't figured out how to enable flash write so far. I'm using flash programmer or dos flash program at the moment.

send me an lspci. Are you sure this is the right chip?
The bad news is there may be extra hardware on the mobo which makes this step only one of the steps you have to do.
