All my parts are on the way (thanks btw) but i just read about a problem with my motherboard and the processor i got.
My motherboard: Abit IP35

My processor: e8400

According to a bunch of the review for the motherboard, there are problems with .45 processors. They say that the bios needs to be updated. How would i accomplish this from a fresh install? I heard that "flashing" (don't know what that means) is dangerous for a motherboard. Ideas?
