    Anyway this is what I found Re: your BIOS:

    System BIOS 4-Mb Flash EEPROM with Intel/AMI* BIOS
    featuring plug-and-play, IDE drive auto-configure
    Advanced configuration and power interface
    V1.0b, DMI 2.0, multilingual support
    Intel® Rapid BIOS Boot Optimized POST for faster access to PC
    from power-on

    Do you have your exact BIOS?

    Did you install it to the floppy with the proper Flash Utility?

    Please post the details of what you are trying to do.
