OK.<br /> This chipset supports the following protocols: FWH.<br /> Calibrating delay loop... OK.<br /> Found chip "SST SST49LF004A/B" (512 KB, FWH) at physical address 0xfff80000.<br /> No operations were specified.<br />--------- <br />I assumed that flashrom can burn my BIOS (since there was no warning given)<br />Then I tried<br />---------<br /> sudo flashrom -wv Desktop/Downloads/P5LD2-2002.ROM <br />---------<br />Result was that two opperations are not permittet or so<br />After studying the man page I ran the following command<br />---------<br /> sudo flashrom -w Desktop/Downloads/P5LD2-2002.ROM <br /> ---------<br /> and got panic!!!!!!!<br />--------<br /> flashrom v0.9.1-r946<br /> No coreboot table found.<br /> Found chipset "Intel ICH7/ICH7R", enabling flash write...
