Re: Award BIOS flash problem

[Christoph Plattner <christoph.plattner@alcatel.at>]

AFAIK the BIOS has to play this feature checking for this or that 
bios extension. I also had a BIOS which "was not interested" in
searching an extension.

Contacting Award, I got the information, that the BIOS must have 
activated the feature to handle bios extensions. This only can
be done at the board manufactor, configuration the BIOS.

Cheers
