Hi, I am wondering if somone can be so kind as to tell me which bios version I'm running? This may be a silly question but I flashed it and can not find anywhere that it's release 15 on the overview page. Thanks for any help. :)

    Can't see your pic. R22 is the latest bios for your motherboard.

    Here is a full pic of the overview screen. Sorry about that and 1.02 is telling me what exactly? I'm a little confused.

    1.02 is telling you that is what your current Bios Number is. (E-LEET may show another number like A05)
    You might just have one of the First Motherboards and 1.02 was what was installed at that time.
    Are you just wanting to update your Bios to the Current Version?
    E-LEET installed?  Download E-LEET What is this Showing?

      Yes and yes. I downloaded and installed E-LEET but I see no info in regard to my board exactly. Just GPU, Memory, CPU ect... I've been having issues with my ECP display stuck on AA and just this past weekend and memory issue where I had to remove two sticks to boot. So I'm hopping a flash of updated BIOS will help. I tried the flash using the windows method. Not manually yet. I'm guessing the win method hasn't been successful which is why I'm writing on the best forum on the planet ;)

    I use the UBS DOS Boot to update older MB like this.
    Make sure you set the Bios back to the Default or Optimized before you update your Bios.
    I do believe you have more than one (3) Bios on that MB so you may want to update one of the Other Bios to test.

    The Config.sys and AUTOEXEC.BAT need to be change to the above.
     
     
    Found It, this is from HP. 45MB and Very Slow to Download.

    A 2GB USB Flash Drive will work fine, I think even a 1GB USB Flash Drive will as well.
