I would like to know which of the third party BIOSs (BIOSi?) is the best, specifically Awards or Phoenix? But would like to hear about others as well. Facts, rumors?, horror stories!, anything at all. Is one any faster than the other? Is one more compatible than the other? My compatible has returned from the shop, they fixed it by replacing the mother board. It was returned with the Awards BIOS, but it was sent out with Phoenix BIOS. When I called about it they sent me the Phoenix BIOS. Now I have both, but must return one set. Which set should I keep? Please post or Email responces to me, and I will summarize to the net the hundreds :-) of replies that I receive. It will be hunderds right? or at least a few (dozen maybe?). Thanax in advance, -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ otium cum dignitate. :-) Steve Leach, Redmond Wa ------------------------------------------------------------------------
