Has anyone downloaded an updated BIOS for the 8RDA+? I downloaded and extracted to floppy, but when its extracted, it says "Raul Carrion" or some stuff like that with some more subfolders, and then finally the .bin file is like 4 folders deep. Is that OK, and has anyone successfully flashed their BIOS using it?

Download the BIOS from Epox's website. And follow the directions on the website.

Once it is put on to a floppy put the disk in the drive and reboot. When the boot screen comes up, hold down Alt-F2 and it will automatically flash the BIOS.

Warning: it takes a bit of time to flash the BIOS so just be patient. Also the newer BIOS's remove certain adjustments and that may annoy you.

Yes, I've flashed the BIOS a million times, but I've never seen an extracted BIOS file that has a "Raul Carrion" folder with more subfolders in it.

I just updated the bios on my 2 8RDA+'s a week ago and did not get a "Raul Carrion" folder in my .bin download either.
