664258 2008-04-30 07:28:00 Hi all

I have been trying to update my BIOS to the lastest edition, but when I try to flash it, it goes Update failed, File not found or something similar. My PC still boots normally, but my BIOS is unchanged. Is there a way to fix this?

664259 2008-04-30 07:39:00 HOW are you flashing it??

Dont update the BIOS in windows, if it freezes (if its updating the BIOS), and you reboot, youre screwed.

Put the update and the file that updates it on a floppy / usb flash drive and boot from it

READ the instructions on how to flash it
