BIOS FLASHING: "Can't File Source File !"

I made the floppy in Win98 (using "format" under the A drive).  Added the
award flash utility & unpacked .bin flash from ECS.

Everything goes along fine until it asks if I want to save my current BIOS-
I say "Y"- name it, (oldbios.bin) then it starts the save process but ends
with "Can't File Source File!"

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Hi,
  Do you have the boot floppy disk write protected?. That would cause an
error message like what you are seeing.

HTH,
Peter Hogan
