I am a user of sony notebook,In order to fix some problems,I want to update the bios,but sony only offer the dos version (it needs a floppy and I have nothing).When I ask the technican of sony how to solve it,he told me I must buy a usb floppy,it's terrible!
So I want to know If the winphlash (rom file is bios.wph) support the format of bios.rom(In the instruction,I know in the floppy there will be three files:phlash.exe(phoenixphlash utility 4.0 release 1.57,bios.rom and platform.bin),Can somebody help me?
Can I use winphlash to flash the bios?

If you have Windows 9x/ME there or Windows NT/2K/XP with FAT filesystem, you might be able to boot from a CD and run the flash utility from the hard drive.

Flash your BIOS at your own risk.
