    Hi z4u,

    This seems to be the relevant section:
    mmmm...not extremely clear.

    Check in your motherboard manual if there may be clearer instructions.

    My conclusion would be that the BIOS update you are using does not contain any updated information for the Boot Block or ESCD. It only has an update for the BIOS itself.

    Side note: Do not flash a Beta version of an upgrade. Only use these if you have run out of all other options. (I looked at the upgrade...there is only one for the P4S333-M and it is a final version, not Beta.)

    Matt
