HTH, -dnh AHA, thanks for this. It would have to be an USB memory stick if anything because the system doesn't have a floppy and there is nothing Windows in sight on this system. The Q-Flash utility works with FAT32, Windows or not :-).
You need a FAT32-formatted USB stick or a FAT32 formatted hard disk oder a FAT(12) formatted floppy disk... The utility does not recognize any other filesystem format.
I tried with other formats on a USB stick, to no avail :-(

Thanks Werner. I do have a couple of FAT32 formatted USB memory sticks so will use one of these if I finally decide to flash the BIOS.
