Received ...
I'll try today. But ... one question: I don't have a FDD in my computer, so I will try flash with with Winflash.exe, not DOS-version. Need I check in Winflash.exe BootBlock, PNP area and DMI area for flashing or not?

Thanks for any comments ...

you can still use a cd-rom/rw with a floppy emulation..there are some boot-cds out there.

Fiasco :(
I created a DOS-based (from Win98) partition and flashed my BIOS with patched version. Without any errors.
As a result - computer is not booting at all. Even there is not POST screen and there is a red LEDs on m/b. I think that it may be a BIOS I received from esupport.com is not relevant for my m/b version. I sent you by e-mail a copy of original BIOS, that i backed up before flashing. Can you patch this version? May be it will work better ...

Thanks for you help
