quick question about bios flashing

artemis0007 · 12-25-2001, 11:28 PM

Hi all!
I had a quick question about flashing the bios. Do I still flash the most recent version of the bios even though I'm a few versions behind? Say I have version 2.01 and the newest is 2.07, would I have to flash 2.02, 2.03, ... , 2.06 consecutively or would a straight jump from 2.01 to 2.07 work?
Thanks!

Flashing the bios erases the bios and overwrites an entire new bios. So just upgrade to the most current one.
