Question re: Flash BIOS Updates
A quick questions for you techno computer literati out there somewhere. You know who you are.

I'm reconditioning a Pentium III computer that uses AWARD BIOS. I have no idea what revision the BIOS currently is on the computer but it has gone through 4 revisions since its inception. I want to update the system BIOS to the latest version. Does the latest version contain all the previous updates as well or do I have to flash all the updates preceding the latest?

Probably a dumb question but thanks for your help anyway.

The latest version should be all you need.

2. Latest version should not require prior patches to be updated prior to.
Unless this is Microsoft Office where you can't skip SPs 1 and 2 before doing 3... :eyes:

You shouldn't have any troubles unless the power goes out.
