Hello, I would like to flash BIOS because I bought a pc which was made by Packard Bell. It is a great machine, but when it comes to overclocking, there is no such option in bios. Thats why I need help with it. I was told by a guy (TECHNICIAN) that its risky, but I realized now If I wont do it, I will still have to buy a new motherboard to do it. There are my specs below:

RAM 4GB VALUE BRAND
QUAD Q8200 2.33 GHZ (I WANT MORE)
NVIADIA GEFORCE 9800GT
MSI MOTHERBOARD 7380 Version 1.2

I hope it helps. Btw I want to upgrade my RAM into 8gb of a value brand.

Update, I found a BIOS update, which I will attempt to flash, but do I put it into a CD and which files do I put into, coz my machine hasnt got a floppy.

Here is a link to it:
