00 Post error only on bios 1

Hi,

BIOS 2 posts fine with various versions, just updated to 4101 with no problems

BIOS 1 powers on but shows 00 error and restarts.

I've tried updating it through USB key flashback - this looks like it's working... blinks and reads the usb as normal
and by copying bios 2 to 1
and clearing the CMOS through the button on the back

Any guesses - possible the bios chip needs replacing? Most threads go through the CPU/ memory replacing but am I right in assuming this isn't my problem as the BIOS 2 works ok?

As an aside. Are all BIOS releases 'full' versions (rather than updates). I just want to check I shouldn't be going back to one specific version.

Many thanks for any help.

BIOS chips do die sometimes.

Get a replacement...BIOS24 is a good place to go
