Would anyone have the latest bios update for the Octek VAP133ACP (Apollo Pro 133 chipset) motherboard ?
Or does anyone know the secret to getting it from any of the Octek.com sites ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks. :?

The BIOS from this page is "12/18/2000-693-686-2A6LGV3FC-00" - the V3 means that it's PC Partner board.
I downloaded some BIOSes from ftp.octek.com.au and found this "06/28/2000-693-596A-DD-2A6LGD4FC-00" - completely different board, this time DFI PA61 (DFI has newer BIOS "08/18/2000-693-596A-DD-2A6LGD4FC-00").

There's a mistake on Octek's site. Go to the main page and surf to the Download section. Select your board and don't click on the big BIOS icon (where DRIVER and UTILITY are too). Just scroll down and you'll find the right release.
