need help flashing BIOS

[mnewxcv]

So I downloaded the files, includes the rom itself and AFUDOS utility, but how to I boot it from a flash drive? Ive only flashed my bios once in the past like 3 years, before that I was using the floppy and it was easy as anything. Help me out please!

AFUDOS <ROMNAME.ROM> will check the file, erase the old, and flash the new all in one step, for future reference

Press F1 and go in and set your old values. Shouldn't give it to you after the first time you flash and save settings.

i had to reflash it, then slide the jumper over for about 10 minutes, THEN it said clock wrong, then I set everything and now its working just fine.
