    so yea ive posted here about this problem awhile ago but all my efforts were unaffected. So the main problem is i flashed the incorrect video bios into my p7805u and now when i boot up it gives me a black screen and three beeps. i have a usb floppy to use but the bios does not fit in the 1.44mb floppy D=. Any help is appreciated. Ive also heard that there is a way to compress the bios file but i dont kno how so if nebody here has done it itd appreciate if u could share some thoughts and tips. Sorry for the trouble and thanks again.

    Check if this one is of any help. Atleast with using the USB flash. Its for DELL though.
