Flash wrong bios in PXI controller

[zenith]

I accidently flash PXI-8106 bios image in the PXIe-8106 controller.

PXIe-8106 controller can't boot now (no picture).

Is there any thing I can do besides call RMA?

I believe you can restore the original operating system (OS) that was shipped with your controller; see the following link for information on Hard Drive Recovery and OS Installation for PXI and VXI Controllers 😉

Hi Zenith,

Unfortunately, yes, you need to RMA your PXI-8106.  There isn't a good way to update a non-booting BIOS image without physically reworking the flash part on the board.  I apologize for the inconvenience.
