Are you using the build in flash upgrade method? There's a hotkey you press, similar to go into the bios. The bios has awdflash.exe stored in it. You only need the floppy with the bios file.

Perhaps you could clear the CMOS, and disable the virus protection long enough to get it flashed.

Just some ideas,
