OK, so please go to the "Collected Wisdom" forum and check out "BIOS upgrading step by step". Also look at the FAQ on the main Wim's BIOS site www.wimsbios.com

I am not sure about how to flash. The one link step by step (soyo...) is a dead link (my mistake it is working) and the other gigabyte did not have my BIOS or motherboard listed. Do I need Award Flasher v7x or is there another program I need to flash the BIOS. Instruction are always a plus. I will keep dig and read while waiting for your reply.
Thanks for taking the time and help a newbie out.

I think there have been some problems reported with almost every version of flash utility. Rainbow's Uniflash is very flexible (see
http://www.pppr.sk/rainbow/programs.html#UniFlash ). Good luck.
