Of all the aftermarket BIOS's out there, I think AWARD is the best. I say AWARD because our BIOS isn't on the market. If you were to include our BIOS, I think ours is the best. Ours is most definitely faster than anybody elses, and more intelligent during POST, and CMOS setup. But keep the AWARD. -- "Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only."
