I have been updating BIOS of P4B266 from version 1007 to 1010.
Update was succesfull, but (apart from 1. back up) I only had the option "2.
update without boot block".
Is this normal?

Probably, the boot block rarely requires updating.

I suppose so... Anyway, everything still works. Ain't that more than can be
expected? :-)
Also updated USB2 driver. Asus.com seemed to have a later version than I had
installed (Win2k). Installation was a little tricky, but the USB devices
also work ok now.

You should be using SP4 really.

Check my FAQ for the latest USB2 drivers if you don't have 2K SP4 or XP SP1

Actually, I'm not sure if those (Orange Micro) drivers will work with the
Intel controller. If it all works, leave it alone :-)

(Never reallu worked out the difference between OHCI, UHCI etc. and that was
before USB2, it's probably more confusing now)

If you have Win2K SP4 installed, there is no need to install any USB 2.0
drivers, they're built into the OS.
