How can I re-program/flash a backup of the bios?

Solution 1:

AWRDACPI does not sound like a model number - are you getting this from System Information?

If so then it is probably a generic report of an Award Bios with ACPI support.

A quick google on VIA694 gives this:

http://209.85.229.132/search?q=cache:http://browse.geekbench.ca/geekbench2/view/12541

which leads to this (VIA is Tawanese not Japanese):

This leads me to think that VIA694 refers simply to the chipset that the motherboard is using. It could be any mobo by any manufacturer.

You will need to find the exact model number either from the POST screen (use the Pause/Break key to stop the screen before it disappears) or open up the case and look for details printed on the mobo PCB
