    Can you get to DOS mode without black screening? You can update the BIOS by booting into a USB thumb drive.

    Hi, Reflow has worked again. Started up but it locked up, I think up dating as it hasn't been on for 8 months. Black screen mean no bios start, so the computer is totally dead.
    Hopefully the reflow will hold and will try a bios flash soon.
    main stream media is a propaganda machine for the establishment.
