BIOS logo problem · DIGIT-ARC

S

Friends,
I bought new D102Ggc2, Pentium D (2.8 Ghz) and 512 MB DDR2 RAM to upgrade my system. I updated BIOS from Intel's site by downloading an exe file and other drivers. After update was successful the Intel Inside logo changed into "Intel" word with white background while booting.
Another prob is also that the front panel audio setting is disable. I use Windows Xp sp2. I formatted the system twice but could not solve the problem. Plz help soon.

When the BIOS is updated to a new version,the BIOS gets new features like support for new processors,new features,etc

But you should have taken the backup of the old BIOS before upgrading it
Formatting your XP wont do any good as BIOS is the first step which occurs during boot

Regarding the Audio Disable Feature,please mention what version of BIOS are you running

S

Very sorry I did not take any backup.
BIOS version
GG11020M.86A.1084.2006.00011012

I was plannin to upgrade my bios (i have the same config) but wont do it anymore

that is no harm done, just get another bios version from their website and flash it, a little older maybe, and dont forget to write them about this.

S

How to write them about the prob? Plz suggest the link.
The main prob is that audio front panel setting is disable.

Are you sure that the front panel sockets are actually connected to your motherboard ?

S

No, the socket is not connected. Does this matter?
What abt LOGO?

How can you be such a fool !!

Many many thanks to NikhilVerma and GeekyBoy for solving the audio problem.
I am really foolish but happy to get such intelligent bros. thanks again.
But how to restore my intel inside logo?

I'm sorry for that but how can you listen from the front panel audio if you haven't connected to the motherboard? There must be some sort of link !!!!

And for the logo: I think you may have to flash the BIOS again with the appropriate logo.

WHy do u need that old logo

what do i say?

All latest BIOS from Intel have dis Logo prob.Just download a bios released bout a month back and flash ur present bios with it.Sud solve ur logo prob.

Btw why do you want the old logo back anyways ? The new bios may give you more functionality I don't think you would want to change back just because you don't like the logo of it ?

I am writing here quite off-topic.but i need to know.

Is the bios flashing is necessary ? And what happen when Blu-Ray Drive is standardized like today's DVD-Writer ? is it normally detect it ?
I have two Intel Machine running with 945 Series motherboard.

Flashing the BIOS is necessary if you want to expand the hardware support of your motherboard. Flashing the BIOS also removes bugs in the previous BIOS and may allow new software to be installed, for eg, in old motherboards, you may need to upgrade your BIOS to support Windows XP.

I don't know much about Blu ray drives. They cost about 45k now !!

you can always chenge the logo in the BIOS to whatever you like, i have a custom logo, that reads my config etc....
