Sorry if I've created a bit of a storm.
All I wanted to do was praise the UK Tech. Support team.
The Abit USA forum has a thread here (
http://forum.abit-usa.com/showthread.php?t=122917) in which RichH suggests that the new BIOS is actually B08 with a POST screen message removal and build number increment.
Apologies to anyone that I may have offended by my good intentions.
