Hi, I found this message board through Google where I am searching some info and instructions on how to update BIOS on my friend's computer. I'm novice computer user when it comes to this, fixing the computer.
I would like to find out how to update there BIOS that will read the 80 GB HDD which has been installed already. The computer is currently showing 32 GB hard drive. I had to use CJL to be able to boot the drive. The software for BIOS is Award Software.
I learned that there are two files I need to get which is 1) a flash utility and 2) .bin file unfortunately I wasn't sure what kind of motherboard is it? I have uploaded the .html file where you can help me find the answers on what kind of motherboard is it and what kind of .bin file to look for as well as an utitlity file so I can update the BIOS information.
The current BIOS information I used Belarc Advisor: (edit- removed link)
Now, what kind of .bin file do I need to find to update the BIOS? What is the best flash utility?
Is there a website, similarity to this: http://www.ecsusa.com/downloads/flashAward.html, that will help me follow the instructions? Or is this pretty good instructions? I'm not very good with reading instructions so having a picture shown with step to step instructions will help me understand it.
Thanks!
