Sorry,but VIA 4in1 is not a BIOS update - it's drivers update. May be, You have installed wrong version...

To Update your BIOS you can usually find the instructions in your MB Manual or on the Manufactures website, make sure you download the correct one for your MB.

The drivers are basicly the same thing you should have gotten a disk w/the MB make sure you install the ones for the right device.. windows usually tell you what its finding, you may have to go into your divice manager and remove the yellow ! dohickies first then install as they come up.
Good Luck

Ah this disk i should have recieved with the mb may be the prob, it never would let me install the drivers, and it froze up when i tried, yet it worked without them util i tried the update, also the company is overseas so its hard to get support....thanks for helping me and getting my thoughts squared away, i was getting overwhelmed with this thing
