    Hi all well i followed Ken;s instructions and all went well.
    But when i enter my bios at the bottom it says v02.58 when i just flashed the v8.01 bios with success.
    How can i check what bios version i have?\

    when it says reboot at the end, how would i reboot it? ctl+alt del?

    I'm not sure what Ken is using to flash the bios, probably AFLASH.

    To reboot, any method should work, including ctrl alt del.

    To check your BIOS version: the BIOS should display it on the first page usually. Otherwise, see the BIOS guide in my sig for some other methods to get the version and release date of your current BIOS.

    Another software that reads that is called BiosAgent. Google is your friend there :)

    Haha that's why I use Customize Google and anonymize my access, so google won't find me when it wants to take my lunch money :)
