A friend screwed up his bios flashing and now has an inoperable machine.

I have a machine with the same motherboard and a good bios. I remember
reading somewhere a procedure that could be *carefully* used to re-flash
the bios if you had another  motherboard with a good bios.  I have not been
able to find the instructions, but it involved starting the machine with
the good bios, removing the good bios after a boot to DOS, replacing it
with the bad one, and then flashing it.  I would appreciate anyone's input
on this procedure or if you can point me to where I can find the procedure.
