Usually the mobo manufacturers have a DOS-based bios upgrade tool available that can be used after booting to DOS. If you need a DOS boot disk (or boot cdrom) go look at "Bart's Boot Disk" at http://www.nu2.nu/bootdisk/modboot/. It is a nice all around tool that will do what you need. On the mobo manufacturer's website look for the executable and the bios upgrade file and put those on cdrom or floppy. Boot with the boot disk and then pop and run in the disk/cdrom with the bios upgrade.

Unfortunately MSI doesn't seem to - at least for this Motherboard. They want you to have a Windows 98 or Windows ME boot disk. I've got the files, I need - that wasn't the problem. I just don't have access to a Windows 98 or ME computer at home or at work to make a boot floppy from. I could have coped with Win 95, Win NT, Win 2000, Macintosh, Dos, Win 3.1, and probably BSD.
