hey guys, i've been searching around for a bios upgrade and haven't quite been able to find one. i bought an emachines computer from best buy cuz i was lazy and cheap and now i want to flash the bios so i can overclock it but i'm having a lil troubles finding something that will accomplish this task. so my question: does anyone know where i can download a bios upgrade for - First International Computer Inc VT8375 ProSavageDDR PM266/KM266 CPU to PCI Bridge (thats the model of the chipset), the bios is Phoenix Technologies, LTD 6.00 PG. it socket a am37. i searched around on fic.com and found something but it wouldn't run in winnt/2k/xp and i looked around on phoenix.com but couldn't find anything that i could download. THANKS ::tim
