The method is good. Now you need to figure out why the tool is unable to
communicate with your BIOS chip. Perhaps the EXE tool is not compatible
with your specific motherboard revision? Or there is some kind of "BIOS
protection" (or "CMOS antivirus") enabled in the BIOS? I can only guess.
Making the USB stick bootable and being able to add files to it was so
easy. It is as though the root of the memory stick was C:\?
The USB stick being C: is normal and expected, your BIOS emulates a
normal hard disk and exposes that to DOS, doing the USB<->HDD interface
translation on the fly.
