Is this even possible?
My IC7-G mobo is having a widdle trouble figuring out who my CPU is. Now, I know very well it's a Pentium 3.2Ghz, and it does (on POST anyway).
But then it tells me the "CPU is unworkable - check Soft Menu" or something along those lines.
(Not the same topic as before, I promis...)
Anyway, ABIT-USA think I need to update my BIOS. After all, I am using one that has problems reading P4 CPU's. Eheh.
So yeah.
My FDD is screwed. Cannot remember why, and yes, I will be buying a new one at some point - when the cash gets flowing. But for the moment I have a CD-RW and 10 700MB CD-Rs.
Now, considering I just booted and installed Windows XP from a CD, I assume there is a way to do the same to update / flash the BIOS.
Danke.

You can normally boot from a floppy cd rom or USB pen with the tools on, most utilities for flashing the BIOS will create a Ramdisk meaning no disc space required for it, but I've only used such utilities for MSI motherboards so I'm not sure if Asus provides images that are bootable or not
Meh, spent a tenner on a disgustingly cream colored OEM Sony from PC World. Ah well, time is money...
(So thereoritically I'm saving money by spending a fiver more a day early... Or not.)

Erm.
I have no idea mate to be honest.
The only thing you can do is get another floppy drive, they only cost a fiver, surely you can fork out for that?
