d686, bios, phoenixbios

Hi,

I have a pentium3 - 800Mhz, I’m having trouble to install windows XP.

I finish installing, I reset the computer and the windows don’t startup again.

In the windows XP loading screen the computer always reset.

I tried to go on safety mode and still don’t startup.

So, I figured that could be the BIOS version, but I can’t find a bios update.

The computer isn’t my, so I don’t know motherboard manufacture, the only think it has on the motherboard is a sticker with “PhoenixBios D686 BIOS 005843785”

I need to find a bios update, does anybody know where can I find it?

Thanks
