    I'm trying to flash the bios, so I created a bootable CD with all the 1.10 bios files and it says failed to load IFL00110.WPH file over and over. Why isn't it working for me? Any tips?

    I tried to rename the files to BIOS.WPH, but that didn't work either, it just said failed to load A:/Bios.WPH

    EDIT: I'm using drdosmin image on the cd to open dos.
