    Hey all,

    Ive been trying for some time now, to update the BIOS on my Nvidia 5600 128Mb 8x AGP card. Its made by Creative Labs, looks kind of the same as the MSI version.

    Where can i and how do i, update the BIOS of the card to a later version?

    thanks guys,

    In general:
    You will download the BIOS image and the flash utility.
    Make a DOS boot floppy and copy the utility+BIOS to the floppy.
    Boot from the floppy. Run the flash program.

    Where to find the BIOS.. Who knows. Maybe it doesn't even exist for your card.

    You do realise that if you mess it up it will be very tricky to reflash the card if at all possible?
