But that is the critical point, if you put in a BIOS that the board doesn't
100% like you will likely have a good paperweight. The BIOS is critical to
getting the board to boot, if you put in the wrong one or the flash doesn't
go perfectly right you stand a good chance of getting stuck with a board
that will just give you a black screen. Personally I recommend one only
upgrade a BIOS if it is absolutly necessary to either fix a problem or add a
necessary new feature. Even with all that, make complete sure that your
system is stable and is plugged into a UPS. Even better try and secure a
source for manually burning the chip, just in case your flash attempt
doesn't work. TTYL
