My computer crashed a few months ago, and I had a new hard drive and video card installed. Every since then I keep getting this message when cutting on my pc telling me to update the BIOS. I am using Windows XP This is the information i've written down.

Phoenix-Award BIOS v6. 00PG, An Energy Star Ally Copyright (C)
1984-2002, Phoenix Technologies, LTD
Version VLB4084
8/9/2002 KM266-8235-6A6LVFODC-00

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

If this is an eMachine system get the vlb415h bios here instead:

Yes I do have an emachines. It is an W2060. There were two BIOS updates on that second link. Which one should I use? One of them said "Original eMachines W2247 BIOS w/ ATI support"
