My apologies, looks like you're right - new AMI BIOS'es require some
utility to edit it unlike old versions. I'm trying to find out
how to do that and what utilities would help. Did you try to ask
whoever supply you with motherboards? Advantech gave us cbrom/awdflash
for Award they use with their motherboards. I'll let you know if find
anything.
