Motherboard DFI CA61 Rev.B1

I have flashed a BIOS upgrade with a wrong file, not for the
motherboard I have.
Now when I put the computer on there is no boot, nothing happens, blank
screen...

How can I delete BIOS to its default programs? I have tried the Clear
CMOS Data with Jumper JP3 but the problem is still there.

Please, help.

Francesc

You'll have to replace the bios chip. The old chip could then be
reprogrammed with an external flash programmer. There are companies that
will reprogram the chip for you for a fee of usually under $20. If you
have a spare pc, then you could buy your own programmer for about $200, or
about $1000 for a standalone. You might try checking local computer shops
and local memory distributors to see if one of them has a programmer. For
more info see biosrecovery.com.
