www.uniflash.org - use this for flashing
Gigabyte changed the Bios-ID of several older boards to show the motherboard model name insted of the standard Award Bios-ID, that's why your Award flasher complains.
Also the Gigabyte flashprog is meant to be a universal flash prog, works with both Ami and Award.

Thanks for that!
I used the Gigabyte flasher, as suggested, and all appeared to go well.
The new BIOS-Info output is:

Quick Power On Self Test -> Disabled to have memory tested
Usually the Award Core Bios does not change, only the release date by the board manufactuerer. That's why you see a 1998 copyright from Award and a 2002 date from Gigabyte.
