207897 2004-01-16 09:32:00 PC sometimes won't cool boot-up. Wanted to update bios to solve problem. i440Lx-BD-2A69JD4EC-00 - how to flash bios if update has been downloaded? h.ong (5124)
207898 2004-01-16 18:37:00 Hi h.ong, and welcome to PressF1.

You will have to follow the instructions on the manufacturers website on how to flash the BIOS, as the instructions will vary from brand to brand.

207899 2004-01-17 01:33:00 If the system won't cold start sometimes, that is far more likely to be a hardware problem.

Does the motherboard manufacturer say that this is a known BIOS problem, fixable with the new version?

If it's not, you might take the risk of making the board totally unusable for no benefit. Accidents happen. ;-) (A power flick during the flashing can be disastrous).
