I am having an issue with the USB support and get a BIOS not enabled error in the Device Manager for the USB hub. Thus the USB is not working. When I check the BIOS it appears to be enable and set up correctly. Before I disable the MB USB and go buy a PCI USB card, I thought I might try flashing the BIOS. Well lucky me I have a Vision Top MB and they are gone. I saw one similar MB posted and I downloaded the suggested flash but it was not a perfect match. While I am comfortable flashing the BIOS and have done it before on other systems, I know the risk and want to make sure I have the best possible version before I do. So if anyone has any information on this MB and the BIOS it would be appreciated. Thanks.

MB/BIOS data

Vision Top Super socket 7 ATX
BIOS - AWARD V4.51PG
ID String - 02/24/98-VP3-586B-W877-2A5LEV59C-00
BIOS OEM - S7-VP3 VER 8.01
CHIPSET - VIA 82C597 REV4

MAY PEACE COME TO THE WORLD AND MAY LIFE BLESS YOU

You might want to try the VIA USB patch (www.viaarena.com).
