As an update is reasonably expensive, what benefits could I expect to see for my money so I can decide if it is worthwhile?? Cheers -------------------- |

QUOTE As an update is reasonably expensive BIOS updates should be free, and available for download from either your computer manufacturer's web site, or your motherboard manufacturer's web site. BIOS updating (or called flashing the BIOS) is not recommended unless you are experiencing issues that an update will cure. See the manufacturer's web site for more info.

Thank You.
Everest Home Edition referred me to this site which wanted about $30. I guess I'll just leave it at the moment. Thanks again. Cheers -------------------- |
