Hello all,

I have the above xpc, i'm wanting to update the bios.
I don't have a floppy drive to flash from that, is there another way to flash the bios please ? ? ?

Many thanks in advance

On the CD that came with the barebones is a Windows flash program. It's meant to have a certain degree of risk associated with it though. But i've never had a problem with it, and have flashed two new BIOS versions.

Be careful...Me and my mate both has had dead shuttles after flashing the bios for no reason....

We both had to buy a reflashed bios chip to get are shuttles working again ...

From now on keep always two bios chips so if a bios flash goes wrong i just put the other bios chip in...
