Question on the BIOS revision here -- mine is 7B3G1P04, which matches what is posted here, but when I download the file the instructions are for 7B3P081G. Is the included instruction file incorrect/outdated, or is this actually for 7B3P081G and not 7B3G1P04? Or does that not matter in this case?

I'm afraid to flash the BIOS with the wrong data.

Thanks!

Since the aptly named Brainsuck never saw fit to reply to this question, I thought SOMEONE should do it:

NO, don't use this bios update for the 7B3G1P04 motherboard!

If you are fortunate enough to be a Computer Systems Engineer with over 40 years of experience, as am I, it will only take you 4 hours or so to repair the damage and get your computer to boot again, otherwise, you will have to pay someone to do it for you.

SuperModerator? Indeed. I could think of other titles, but that would simply be rude.
