First, Thank you for your answers.
Unfortunately I tried again and again today and I can't properly flash my winbond chip. I even tried to nice -19 flash_rom, remove the print's but it doesn't help.
I dumped several time the content burned, and there are each time several errors, not twice the same, randomly placed across the chip.
The wrong bytes are often burned as FF, but this is not always the case.
What else could I try ? Where should I dig into ?
Thx Damien
need more info.
What is the chip that is in the socket already? Are you trying to burn a 49F in a slot that won't support it?

Sorry, this is related to my previous mail "flash_rom and epia 800".
I got a BIOS Savior on my via epia 800. The chip in the RD1-PL is (recognized as ?) a w49f002u. Maybe I should check physically which chip is on the savior ?

IIRC the Epia-M board I saw had a 39x020 in it instead a 49. Do you have the original bios chip to check? The Bios savior might not get the right voltage. Stefan
My original BIOS is a 39SF020 A.
According to http://www.ioss.com.tw/web/English/RD1BIOSSavior/SelectionSheet.html I got the good savior for epia (better double check !). You don't think so ?

I don't think that 39F and 49F are compatible.
