    Hi there,
    can anyone tell me where to look for a Bios upgrade for my PC. I've wanted to upgrade for a while but have heard horror stories about what happens when it goes 'Wrong'. :eek: My stats are as follows.
    AMD Duron 749MHz, Win XP Pro, no system manufacturer (it's a hybrid)

    BIOS Manufacturer _Award Modular BIOS v6.00PG
    BIOS ID _ 02/07/2001-8363-686B-6A6LMM4AC-00
    Bios Date _ 02/07/01
    BIOS OEM SIGNON _ W6330MS V2.4 020701 15:37:57
    CHIPSET _ VIA 82C305 rev 3
    SUPER I/O CHIP _ VIA 686 found at 0h:7h:0h


    Hopefully the system isn't too old to find an upgrade!
    Cheers ;)

    Exactly nice post ASUS :) a bad flash when nothing is wrong that a bios update would fix... could leave you with a dead motherboard.
