Can anyone tell me how to establish what bios version my mobo has? I've been into the bios and looked in uGuru but I can't see anything to give me a clue.
Thanks

Excellent. I'll get that downloaded when I get home. Looks like it will do everything I need.

There are a few easy ways to tell, first if you simply boot in to BIOS, on the main BIOS screen there is a long series of numbers on the bottom of the screen, the last two digits are your BIOS version. That same number appears at the bottom of the screen when booting the system normally as well.

Thanks guys. It transpires that I have bios 10 and it would be advantageous for me to upgrade it to 11.
OK, now to look up bios flashing from USB stick.
Happy days
