Is there a way to flash BIOS in Windows

[McArra]

I want to change my BIOS but I have no floppy and I can find no way to do it throw Windows. Anybody know a ultility? I want to usu OCWB1 BIOS, 1.40 with windows installer is not a option.

Thanks in advance 😉

Methinks WINFLASH is what you're looking for, yah.

Nope, that app only works with Award Bios, this Mb uses AMI.

Thanks anyway 😉

There is an AMI flasher for Windows just as well. I wouldn't - not because those utilities were unreliable, but because Windows might get funny ideas while it's at it.

I can't find it, can someone give me a link?

thanks peter 😀

ECS are offering it with their AMIBIOS equipped boards. "Borrow" it from there, www.ecs.com.tw ... YHBW.

Thank you very much, I will try that 😉

It doesn't work, this is so frustrating

Why not make a bootable CD and put it on there? Or borrow someones USB floppy drive (come with a lot of laptops) and do that?

 

[McArra]

Can it be done with a CD? This is new to me, I have no idea how to do that.
If you know how to or have a link it could be the solution to my problem 😉

Why not buy a floppy drive they are one of the cheapest hardware parts you can buy.

Just like to add that ASRock just released a windows flash utility like half a week ago for the 939Dual-Sata2, though right now its a dead horse (or whatever the expression is).
