Abit motherboards and Flashmenu

Just wondering if anyone here has an Abit motherboard, and has used Abit's Flashmenu utility to update the bios.

Alan: Did you recently add some new hardware to your computer?

flashing is very risky. Make sure you know what you are doing.

I have not done it myself but I read that if you do the download from ABit it will scan yours first to tell you what the upgrades will be.

Yeah, I fried the motherboard once trying to fix it that way. Not good.

I agree, make sure you know what you're doing first.

Don't piss me off or I'll run over your toes.

Haven't added anything lately, PN.

This utility is supposed to handle everything. I've flashed motherboards in the past the old fashioned way - from a dos boot disk.
