Who is the motherboard manufacturer? Phoenix doesn't sound right to me. Unless things have changed Phoenix makes bios, so does Award... can't be both. At any rate you'd want to get the bios update from the motherboard manufacturer not the bios manufacturer. The bios is specific to the motherboard and if you tried to say flash a generic award bios you'd likely end up with a boat anchor 8)
I think this is your motherboard but check the photo and specs first at http://www.pcwave.com/prod694a.html
if it is,
then the bios update is in this page and is dated 06/13/01 http://www.pcwave.com/BIOS/MB20C.ZIP
and is an elite group motherboard ( www.ecs.com)
remember to download and the flash utility at http://www.pcwave.com/utility/Awdfl816A.zip
i hope that i help you.....?
