    Version 1.90 2007-11-01

    * Corrected: The Express Card is not detected after a reboot on SLi models with 4GB of System Memory.
    * Corrected: The Phoenix BIOS code was updated due to a USB flash boot issue with Robson.

    Well nothing big actually.

    I upgraded the bios twice so far on my sli3 and everytime the software is running in Vista i get this terrifying feeling that it will Blue Screen it and I will brick my laptop...weird.

    I know the feeling, that is why I use a usb floppy drive to upgrade my bios I just don't trust doing this from within vista.

    It should work, but I still don't trust doing bios updates from within Windows.

    :cool:

    They give instructions and the utility to burn it to a bootable cd if you don't have a usb floopy drive and it worked fine, I too don't trust windows to do a bios flash without bricking my laptop. I wish someone had an easy way to make the XP installer look at a usb flash drive as a floopy.
