Amazing that one can't flash the BIOS of a year-old motherboard without a
DOS disk.

I run only Windows 2000 and so I can't make a DOS disk.

HHHHHeeeeeelllllllllllllllllllllpppppppppppp please

Windows 2000: How to make a DOS boot disk that will check for a boot sector
virus and can be used to flash your BIOS.

Insert your Windows 2000 CD and browse to the VALUEADD/3RDPARTY/CA_ANITV
directory and run the program MAKEDISK.BAT which will create a bootable
floppy with antivirus files to check your boot sector. Just add the
necessary BIOS flashing files to the floppy (you may have to delete the
antivirus program to have enough room). Note, this floppy will boot the
computer to DOS, it will not be useful for any purpose other than flashing
the BIOS and checking the boot sector for a virus.

My thanks to all for the great suggestions. This is the BEST NG by far on
this planet :-)

Chris - I did a search of Google and it's groups and had a zillion hits. I
explored the first 20 or so of each and collapsed from exhaustion ;-)

Thanks again.

A zillion minus 20.

That means you have a few left.

Let's get cracking.
