Thanks James for that. It makes sense indeed. Should I wait to get the extra RAM before updating?

Eleanor,
The reason I updated the bios on my NC10 was because I upgraded the RAM to 2 GB, so though hey, why not update the bios as there was an update available.

Hi Ibrahim,

I agree, but I wouldn't advise having your screen reader loaded when
flashing the BIOS.  Or have you done it successfully?

All the best

Steve

Hi Steve.

If your using a bios update through dos as some bios updates are still
done
that way, I agree that sighted assistance is desirable in case something
should go wrong.  However, the majority of new laptops and desktop
computers

and variants there of use windows-based bios flashing utilities. The NC10
is a good example of this.

All the best, Ibrahim

Hi Chris,

Always one to over-react, aren't you?  <Smile>.

It is not asking for trouble to update the BIOS, it certainly should be
done.  But sighted assistance is essential.

All the best

Steve

There's probably a way, but this must be done with sighted assistance and
extreme caution since flashing the wrong bios is asking for trouble.

Hi is there a way to update my BYos on my Dell desktop. It is one year
out
of date and the machine thinks there is a flopy drive and that happened
since I had a RAM upgrade.
