Updating bios?
 

where should I goto look too update my bios for my comp and what info should I have?

If you're computer is working fine, then you don't need to update it-if you do it wrong it could mess it up beyond the scope of your imagination (well, not that far). What type of bios do you have? what version does it say when booting up?

Yes, note that any system failure during the update or using the wrong update will make your motherboard just a pretty piece of plastic, metal, and silicon.

The thing I want it for is xp, last time I installed it, it kept asking me too update my bios then it would crash :( umm I'll check the version in a sec.

Bios version 1.10 then has a date like 12/2/99
core version 4.10
if that means ne thing

You need to find the MB name and model. Get a Biosupdate prog from the manufacter then follow their instructions. Take your time to choose the right update for the right model and bios version.

isn't it really dangerous to update BIOS? <--- CLUELESS

ya, all u really gotta do is go to ur manufactures website, dl the new bios and maybe a bios flash thinger...so just open ur case, see the model and go to there website. should also come witha read me or something to guide u through it.

Yea, with the FlashBIOS its really not that hard or risky at all...

Wrong.
