Booting To Dos From The Hard Drive

[Homie]

Solution to your problem is Super UTL by khauyeung. With this bootable CD you can boot into DOS. From there you can point to the dir where you have the BIOS update and updateproggy and make the update from HDD. Did this myself as my floppydrive went dead.

I have a sony Picture Book which is sold without a floppy drive. I used a cdrom to boot into dos. it works, but I eventually found you really need a floppy, so I bought one--USB in the case of the Sony and even tho I only use it occassionally am very glad I bought. I keep a PowerQuest Drive Image in a separate partition and in a crisis situation i can boot with the floppy and use Pqdi from a floppy to restore c:\. Worth the extra bux.
