Don`t use MSI Live Bios, it is not working correctly today. I tryed to update my bios to 1.9 from 2.1 and the flash failed and I could not boot my computer. I`m lucky I have another MSI K7T Pro 2-A I could use to reflash the bios chip. I recommend using a boot disk to flash your bios. You can go to the MSI Bios Page to get updates.

or in my case...where normal flashing doesnt work, I believe there is some form of protection on it, to prevent idiots from messing it up, all i can use is livebios...nothing else has worked...and believe me, I tried.

So have I... 3 or 4 times. Then it went wrong.... So you still have a possibility of a dead BIOS coming up....:/
