| Re: boot disk using flash drive I remember the first time I tried to copy the bios & AFUDOS to a floppy for the Maximus Formula SE motherboard, as this is the method that I got used to with all Asus motherboards, it did not fit. I was so surprised by this and did not know what to do. I was going to make a bootable flash drive to use AFUDOS to update the bios, but I finally went on the Asus forums the next day to find out the EZ Flash method from within the bios and utilizing the flash drive. I was initially afraid to try this method. I was happy once I used this method and it has worked the last few times that I updated the bios.

no need for me to use that now since my ASUS board has the EZ Flash utility...but for non ASUS boards this might be the best/only option
