It seems that I applied the wrong bios update to my computer, HOWEVER, I do have the CORRECT updates available on CD, and I also found an update on a website that works as well.
Because the update I applied is currently incorrect, nothing appears on the screen when I turn my computer on. The only ISA card I have now is a soundcard.
What I want to do is manually inject the correct data into the bios chip and then when I stick it in my computer and turn it on, it will work the way it did before I flashed it wrong.
The BIOS chip is a Winbond W29EE011-15. It turns out to be a 128K CMOS Flash ROM.
Because I have screwed up a parallel port before, I want to enter a safer approach.
I want to make a device that reads the data (in binary format, sequentially) from the floppy disk and send it to the chip without anything else involved (except maybe an LED to indicate completion).
For programming the BIOS chip, Is it as easy as enabling the WE and CE pins, selecting the address (A0 to A17), and sending output to the data (D0 to D8) pins, or is there something else involved?
and exactly, what is the pinout of the floppy disk interface?
and do you think this is a good solution, or so I go with a different method instead?
