Ok so in case anyone else has heard about it, I got screwed over by www.tigerdirect.com. They were having a deal on a A8V deluxe and a 3400+ bundle for $299 after rebates. I guess I should have been curious why it was so cheap, and looked into it, but I didnt. They are bundling a motherboard and processor that do not work together. Asus has just put a BIOS upgrade on their site that allows the 3400+ to work but my mobo I got doesn't have this bios version. My question is that if the mobo wont POST with the 3400+ processor, and I dont have another processor to throw in there, is there any way to flash the bios? I have another working computer obviously, and I'm pretty handy with computer stuff so even if it's a complicated solution I can probably figure it out. I have looked all over Asus's site, but found not much help. My guess is Asus will tell me to just send them the bios chip and they will flash it for me. Does anyone have any experience with the turn around on that type of thing?
