BIOS recovery if flash fails
Question: How do I recover my BIOS from a bad flash?
Answer: If you have access to an old un-accelerated ISA video card, you might be
able to recover your BIOS. Remove all cards and drives from your system, except
for the ISA video card and the floppy drive. Then try to boot from a system disk (a
bootable floppy with only the flash program and corresponding BIOS image). If you
are able to boot to the floppy, flash your BIOS according to the flash directions.
KBPO does not work
Question: Why doesn’t the KBPO (keyboard power-on) function work?
Answer: The Keyboard Power-On (KBPO) function allows users to turn on a PC by
easily touching the keyboard instead of bending down to look for the power button
under a table. To use this unique feature your EPoX motherboard must first support
KBPO, have it set to enable, and use an ATX power supply rated 0.1a (100mA) or
greater for the +5vsb. KBPO is only available on selected motherboard models.
0.1a (100mA) is the bare minimum required for KBPO; in actuality 0.72a (720mA)
or greater is preferred as some devices and keyboards may have a negative effect on
lower current power supplies causing KBPO not to function correctly.
Memory conflict with AGP in Windows 95
Question: I’m getting a “memory conflict with AGP controller” error when I install
an AGP VGA card under Win95 OSR2, what’s the problem?
Answer: This problem is caused by a driver provided by Microsoft in Win95 OSR2.
Under Windows 95 (OSR2 versions), there is a VgartD.VxD virtual device driver
which is handling the traffic between local VGA RAM and system memory through
the AGP bus, and it’s producing some these “side-effects”. Although the conflicts
are listed they should not be reassigned manually. Microsoft has addressed the issue
in the driver for Windows 98.
