    Sorry to ask but I have been doing alot of searching and all I seem to get is links to others forum threads and can't seem to find the actual download for the bios update. Can someone please just post the link to the file and also maybe instructions. Also is it a motherboard bios update or graphics card bios update?

    Thanks for the help people

    Forgot to add:

    In my bios versions read as follows;

    Asus Bios
    Version: 0703 Dated 05/29/06

    Ec Firmware
    Version 1000800001

    VGA bios
    version 009.012.001.014

    I take it I'm updating the Asus bios? and version 1101 is higher than what i have right? Just want to make sure

    it is the one released in oct 1 from asus to myself and ken so i think it is beta. there may have been new ones but that is the first one to address the grainy issue. Asus.com may have even a newer version then that. Had not checked just like the op.
