You can find some specifics here:
http://www.aopenamerica.com/tech/download/mbbios/default.htm
I also have the flash utility and manual for the AP5VM on the CD that came
with my motherboards, I have an AP5T and an AX6B which both work great. If
you need the files, e-mail me and I will send them to you privately.
Hope this helps.
