    I am running an AlphaPC 164SX (21164PC) 533, that originally had AlphaBIOS
    Version 5.62-1. I flashed the ROM with sx164srm.rom and the system booted
    fine to the SRM console.

    However, I now wish to reinstall AlphaBIOS. Using the latest version of
    sx164nt.rom in dva0, I type 'arc' from the >>> prompt, and the system loads
    as it should. Unfortunately, when the AlphaBIOS has finished detecting
    network adaptors, a window pops-up saying 'Invalid NVRAM data' and offers to
    restore the NVRAM to factory default values. On pressing enter, the system
    mentions briefly that it is saving data, and then locks up.

    Has anyone any ideas how I can sort this?

    (I am using a SCSI HD on DKA0 which I have low-level formatted using the
    AlphaBIOS utility accessed via the [CTRL] [A] facility on boot.)
