I just got this with my new computer and I was told to upgrade the BIOS and I honestly don't know how to do it. I heard there might be a conflict with my motherboard and my video card (Radeon 9700 Pro) so that is why I am trying to update it. Could someone help me out with what I should do?

"might be a conflict" does not mean "has a conflict." Is your system working properly? If so, don't bother updating. If not, then download the BIOS update and read the included instructions. You can luck out and the board could support BIOS updates from Windows, but if not you will need a DOS boot disk with the BIOS file on it and the BIOS flash program. After your computer boots from the disk, type in the name of the flash program followed by the name of the BIOS file, such as:

A:\>awdflash 648hqx12.bin

or whatever the real file names are.
