Flash BIOS went wrong. HELP ME PLEASE...

Hello. Peace be upon all of you.

I have a big problem since last year.

My problem is I've updated my BIOS (or what they called Flash BIOS). In the middle of completing the process, my laptop was not responding. Without knowing, I restarted the laptop and what happened is the screen just go totally (dead) blank after that with not even BIOS menu appeared. Only the fan sound I can heard and saw some blinking light from the power LED.

Product: Compaq Presario V3500 (V3828AU)
Chipset: AMD Turion X2
Warranty: Expired

I'm a student and I need to save budget as much as I can from use it for repairing which cost me more than I can afford (I have asked about it at local repair shop around me; the only one can do the restore service, others asked me to buy a new motherboard).

I have bought external floppy disk and a diskette. Do you know how to restore the default BIOS to my laptop?

I have pulled out the hard disk to be external for temporary use. Do I have to insert back the hard disk to restore the BIOS setting?

Please help me..tell me how to do it.

 

As far as I know, if you mess up a BIOS update you're pretty much screwed in most cases. Sorry buddy.

 

you *can* attempt to 'blind flash' the bios. by putting the bios file and flasher onto a usb/cd and see if it'll read it. as you still have power, the system could be recovered.

you will need to extract the flash file, download and put the contents of the file onto a disc and then power on.

I don't know about the keys to press, but windows +b is an old default they used, but one of the f-keys also does it.

 

First thing you should try is unplug the battery, external peripherals and AC power and hold the power button for 30 seconds and try booting up again.

then give this a try but put the HD back in first
