    depends on motherboard that you might be able to do live update. if not than make a bootable cd & copy the files needed to do bios update.

    you have to read the page to see if you can....there are detail descriptions on how to update bios...follow them...peace


    update:i would go buy a floppy drive because it states you need to rewrite bios on notepad and then add to floppy and then reflash....floppy disc drives are 8 bucks,cheap.unless your bios can be flash from cdrom that came with mobo your out of luck....even if you flash bios dosent mean the multipliers or voltage upgrades are on it.if the flash chip and mobo support it it will if not everything is pretty much set to auto.....peace

    After removing the battery.
    Go into BIOS and set the CPU FSB to 133 and with a ratio of x10 or auto.
    This set it back to what it was originally, as those board are set to 133 fSB by default.
    This will at least get ou stable again.
    Not a particularly good board for overclocking though, so would limit what you do after that.
