After having done an AIDA32 on my almost 3 year-old 900MhzPIII Dell it was suggested that the Video BIOS be updated. Below is what I believe to be the reports' pertinent info. Would anyone know (and share with me)where the best place to obtain/download it?

I would think that the video card manufacturer would be the source for
information of this type. Have you tried there?

hi, if you download the latest detonator drivers from the NVidia web site I think they include BIOS updates:

Thanks for the link, Tim. I'd been to Nvidia's site before and found it most...challenging to say the least. Maybe I was searching for a quick-fix, and theirs certainly isn't one of those. The current BIOS will have to do for now. I appreciate it.
