Asus A7V333-X

[Bigg]

I have this motherboard:
http://usa.asus.com/products/m.../a7v333-x/overview.htm

Every single version of the Bios I download from the Download section of that page is rejected by my bios using the Asus EZ Flash built-in utility. I even tried using the latest Beta bios and that got rejected as well. The error message says it is not a compatible version with the Bios I alread have. Doesn't make sense to me. That page above lists it the correct Bios.

What's weird is that when it lists the version of the Bios I am trying to install... it's in a different language. But at that Asus site, the bios updates aren't indicated as being one particular language...

Anyone have any experience with this type of issue and Asus motherboards? Any suggestions are welcome.

Make a bootable floppy diskette, get the BIOS file and the AFLASH updating utility from Asus's site, and try the traditional method.

Big picture: do you have an actual issue that requires a BIOS update to resolve it?
