Hi!

I have tried to flash my BIOS without success. BIOS flash reading is ok, but writing does'nt work. Here is the commands output:


$ flashrom -Vw 75i65G_3.30

flashrom v0.9.2-r1028 on Linux 2.6.35-28-generic (x86_64), built with libpci 3.0.0, GCC 4.4.4, little endian
flashrom is free software, get the source code at http://www.flashrom.org

Calibrating delay loop... OS timer resolution is 1 usecs, 2071M loops per second, 10 myus = 9 us, 100 myus = 90 us, 1000 myus = 898 us, 10000 myus = 8978 us, 4 myus = 3
us, OK.

DO NOT REBOOT OR POWEROFF!





I have checked the BIOS content and compared with backup - they are identical, so I have reboot the PC without any problems.
