erm.. i always use the update.bat batch file that comes in the .zip file. unzip everything onto a bootable floppy (make one from the dos prompt, not windows). then boot off the floppy and run the update.bat batch file. easy enough. ![]()

Even easier still and not requiring a boot floppy (good for Me, NT and Linux users) is to do the following ...[list=1][*]Download BIOS and extract to a blank floppy[*]Leave the floppy in the A: drive[*]Restart the machine[*]At POST press ALT + F2[*]Watch the BIOS automatically flash in front of your very eyes[/list=1] Now if that's not the easisest way to flash a BIOS, I don't know what is !!

The beauty of it is that it works regardless of your operating system. This is a good push to stop people illegaly copying boot disk software whilst offering the end user a neat and simple way to flash the BIOS.

i've always been wary of the alt-f2 bios thing. not a clue why, but i have. i think i'm gonna try it next time. sounds easier than the other way, esp. if you're running an os that doesn't make decent boot disks, like me or 2k.

Just finished flashing the bios. The only difference I see on post is the date has changed to 10/17/2001 VT8366-8233 etc... Does that mean the bios flash took... Cant wait for my Athlon XP 1800 to arrive in a few days....hope i get a good stepping. Thanks Epox Tech and all.... By the way I used the Awdflash utility...so easy..
