   I like how the ASRock site tells me to update my system by downloading a zip file, extracting it, and putting it on a USB drive or floppy disk

   it's 16mb, dude. Which floppy do you want me to put it on? a zip drive? DOES YOUR BIOS SUPPORT ZIP DRIVES?

     I updated the bios and now it can't boot

     it can see the HD, the one I just installed windows onto, and it can start installing, but it gets like a minute into booting and then says it can't access the boot device.

     I'm sure this is fine

     obviously I'd try it but this is my roommate's machine and she wants it back and working, not broken because I tried to update the BIOS off a zip drive

     @foone Zip files go on zip disks. That just makes sense.
