Yes that would definatly do the trick, however have you considered your bios chip is probably ok and just needs a good reflash, If you have another mobo about you could try a hot swap and reflash that way, Ruslan will probably pick up on this thread and point you in the right direction for bios fixes and such. Who knows perhaps the mobo you have has a bootblock and you can rescue it with a boot floppy and the flash utility and .rom/.bin file. I am not familiar with Biostar boards but at http://www.sysopt.com/articles/recoverbios/index.html is a fairly good read about bios recovery.
I would point him to my own topic with BIOS recovery tips,but I cann't get it...Looks like something wrong with Windrivers forum's seach engine...
Probably I should have to recreate my topic again...
Well,anyways,this is will be update to my topic...
It's not nesessary to find exactly same motherboard for reflashing BIOS chip. Almost any motherboard can be turned into universal flash programmer (ASUS motherboards are preferrable and the best here,though).
You just only should use new uniflash utility in expert mode and choose an option reflash all,including boot block. That utility can even reflash "uknown type" flash chips (chips with lost manufacturer's ID info bytes).
Sorry,guys, I too busy at work now. I will post bit later today...
