MSI K8N BIOS Flash gone bad - What needs to be on the boot floppy?

:shocked:
I've been surfing the web in the evening when the MSI Update agent informed me that there is a new BIOS version availible. No big deal ... not the first time ... so I just hit the download button ...

Meanwhile, in the kitchen my appartment-mate (a really cute girl) toasts some bread in the toaster ...

The download is finished, so I start the update program ...

In the kitchen, the toast is finished and the thing is supposed to pop up. But some part of the bread is stuck in the toaster, so she can't get one slice of the bread out.

I check everything in the update program, boot part and the one at the end unchecked ... Off you go ...

In the kitchen, my appartmentmate get herself a fork (stainless STEEL) and sticks it into the toaster to get the slice out.

In the Hallway you could hear at this point a loud "ZONK" when the main fuse blew ...

She is still alive and well ... but the Mainboard BIOS isn't.
It wants to boot from a floppy disk. What is supposed to be on that one?

I appreciate your help, folks!

Edit:
I'm talking about a MSI K8N Neo2 Plat with S939
