|  Formatting a USB drive how do you format a USB thumb drive to update BIOS? Formatting using the Windows appication doesn't give you the choice.   |

| Re: Formatting a USB drive Well, on my new rig, I Don't have a floppy drive (  ) so i used the Windows Enabler. I worked alright, but on a 1GB thumb drive, windows says that the thumb drive doesn't have enough space to fit the new BIOS file.  Suggestions? |

| We take both criticism and positive comments very positively | Re: Formatting a USB drive You are doing something wrong, because the standard BIOS file is actually very small.

| Modder-ator | Re: Formatting a USB drive Sorry, I don't have any experience with Windows Enabler (never heard of it before acually). What exactly are you trying to do? If you are just trying to flash the BIOS on your motherboard, I would suggest using Winflash (available for download HERE...) |
