problem identifying correct bios for gericom
Hi
I've brought a second hand gericom webboy laptop. I decided to update the bios, however on flashing it, the laptop died on me. No POST, No VGA, No floppy disk operation etc. Power still working and CPU fan running.
I've decided to remove the PLCC bios chip and get a repair company to reprogram it. However before I do this, I want to make sure I get a bios code that actually works for this laptop ! I approached Gericom Support but they were no help. The bios I had used for updating came from their website under Webboy folder (model 340s2). They only had one version of the bios in this folder and as my laptop died when I tried to use this version, I'd rather not use this particular source.
Before my laptop died, I did write down all the details of the bios. It is an AMI Bios, ID string, 62-0213-009999-00101111-071595-SIS630-1AAOG008. My efforts at searching for info. on internet have proved fruitless. There are suggestions that this BIOS might be used on several different laptops. Can anyone confirm where I could download the correct bios that matches this ID string?
