The semi working board died after a memory upgrade attempt by a
client's
son. As I've never had aboard die on me, I can't see how he would
have mangaed to kill it and presumed it was BIOS corruption, however
the emergency bios update system isn't working.


Quite probably "static damage"

You can also fry a board if you force the wrong memory into it or put
the correct memory in the wrong way round. It's not common and takes a
special kind of idiot but.....
I think I'll just need to say goodbye to it/ Hate throwing things
out however..
