    Hey all,

    my sister has a fairly old Gateway MX3228 computer with 512MB of RAM.
    I'm trying to update the BIOS (due to issues with upgrading the RAM) but I can't find the latest version.
    Right now it's PhoenixBIOS Version 73.07.
    If I go on the Phoenix Technologies website to upgrade it takes me to Bios Agent Plus. Some website where I'd have to pay to get the latest version?
    Either way, it offers a free scan to find out what the latest version is, the problem is that the scan freezes at 30% (locks up the computer) so I can't find out anything.

    So right now I just want to know what is the latest BIOS version, anyone know?
