can anyone help me get a BIOS upgrade this is the info for my system: BIOS Manufacture: Award Modular BIOS v6.00PG BIOS ID: 06/23/1999-i810-PC87366-6A69MC3AC-00 BIOS Date: 06/23/99 BIOS OEM Signon: 06/23/1999 Chipset: Intel Whitney 82810 rev 2 Super I/O Chip: NSC 366 rev 6 found at port 2Eh thanks in advance

6A69M = Intel i810(E) chipset with Award BIOS v6.00 C3 = Chaintech Their Web site does not list much that old. It would really help a lot (and saved a lot of time) if you would included the Processor type, and more import the MODEL number off of the board. It appears to be a socket 7 Pentium MMX and it is unlikely that there is a BIOS update for anything that old. An you will not find out any more about it without the correct model number of the board.

Actually Iam surprised that you ver BIOS is the same as mine ,while you PC is a P2 400MHZ ,mine is a P3 750MHZ and was purchased new in October of 2000 ! One of the reasons I have held back on some upgrades ,including a larger H.D. (still have 20G.B.left of 30 Gig H.D.) and a O/S upgrade to XP is out of fear of this type of thing ,flashing the bios with a dial up ,I heard is a risky undertaking ? As of now this PC stil does everything I need it for ,I upgraded the graphics with a graphics card to replace the i810 intergrated graphics, and also installed a sound card for better sound ,added a CD-RW for copying CD,s ,O/S WinMe , so far all is good ! I do believe there is a BIOS flash for this version of the Award BIOs, have you done a search on ggole or go to Awards web site ! I also believe that there is a charge for this ,however I may be wrong on that ! Good Luck Nick
