BIOS trouble: "WARNING! This file is not an Asus BIOS..

[Klosters]

..The BIOS model doesn't match with the one currently used." I have an Asus A7S-VM. AFAIK, the mainboard has an "in-house" BIOS--as opposed to a Public Release BIOS. I believe that's why I get this "WARNING!" etc, after successfully saving the current BIOS, and entering the flash phase of updating the BIOS--with a Public Release genuine Asus BIOS.

Has anyone had this problem?? I'd greatly appreciate your expertise!

There were a number of less common boards that exhibited this problem with some versions of ASUS Update.

Make sure that you have the latest version of ASUS Update.

What do you mean by "in-house" BIOS?

Thanks for your response, AndyHui. I'm told that an "in-house" BIOS means that this BIOS was installed by Asus's lab or R&D folks. They neglected to flash my mainboard with a Public Release BIOS before they shipped it.
