Re: Where do i go to update my BIOS
You need to ID your board. Perhaps this will help (if indeed that is an AMI board):

http://www.ami.com/support/bios.cfm

Otherwise you need to ID that board. You can try this scan:

Re: Where do i go to update my BIOS
The CPU compatibility depends on your mobo version #

3. Where do I find the version number of my motherboard?
It is either written onto the Board near the keyboard connector, or silkscreened in very small print in the corner of the board nearest PCI#1 connector (also near "JUSB1").

Once you know that you can find the compatible CPU's with this same link:

http://radel.inet.net.nz/m810lmr.html

From the scan that you posted I see an infrared device under Network Adapters.

Check your Device Manager: Start/Run/ devmgmt.msc under Network Adapters.
