ASUS mobo BIOS question

A new BIOS came out for my a8n Sli Deluxe that fixes an issue I have been having. I want to update, but am not entirely sure the best way to do so. I know it come with this auto update feature that you can flash from within windows, but I've had no luck like many others with the program. I hear there is an EZ Flash feature, but I dont know how to use it. I could always do the boot from the 3.5 floppy, but mine isn't hooked up. All you users of ASUS mobos, share your wisdom with me.

i've had no problems using the windows software
but i always prefer from in the bios via floppy if possible, or via booting - you could try making a bootable cd

i'd advise you to get the windows bios update program.. run it.. it'll update itself if it's not up to date already

then pick the latest release (let it find it.. i've had to select the asus.de ftp server.. all others don't seem to connect or report no bios update available..)

then just flash away when it gets it.

restart and your good.. you may need to adjust a few settings..
