Hi Folks,

 

Trying to put a bootable dvd together to do a bios upgrade on my PC. I downloaded the appropriate bios and flash utility files, along with a Dr. DOS image. Using Imgburn, under "Bootable Disc", I select the box to make it bootable and supply it with the path to the unzipped Dr. DOS image (next to where it says "Boot Image:". I burn it, then when I try to boot the PC, I get the following error: "Cannot load DOS! Any key to retry."

I've burned two dvds on two different PC's and re-downloaded. I am doing something wrong, but, have no idea what it is. I even made sure the CD-ROM was the first and only bootable device in my bios settings. I really hope this isn't some Vista x64 thing.....especially since Winflash can't be used with it.

Any ideas ?

 

Thanks

You'd be better off doing this via a USB stick.

 

Use the HP tool to format one and make it bootable, then copy over the dos flashing tool and the bios file itself.

 

None of this is anything to do with ImgBurn of course.
