Go with BIOSMAN


On a side note, If anyone has ever dealt with him before, his Pages need a grand overhaul. They are too Cluttered.

Informative Yes, Cluttered, VERY. He should stream line em.

ty for the replies. Im probably going to have to go with biosman for my replacement bios. Abit as a whole isnt answering any email anymore. The U.S. site now redirects to the global site. Any attempt to email anyone from the global site goes unanswered. I guess its officially dead and no one is there to answer any emails. Sad really Abit was such a great company.

I will give bios man a shot...but shew Abits replacement bios price of 6 dollars plus shipping sure beats biosmans 25 dollar price though. I can almost get another IC7 Max 2 board for that price haha

There is also a guy on eBay. Cost plus shipping might be same as BioSMan. But Biosman seems like he will do the job right and others have used without issue.

Have instructed others to send Email and request specific BIOSes, even on manufacturers not in his list and recieved word they ordered, but not how it went. I assume good.
