RE: Where was F6x? from the internet or on a memory stick?

The F6X BIOS was downloaded earlier from cics's cMP download site on sourceForge. I then stored it on a thumbdrive and mounted it prior to running @BIOS.

The @BIOS software seemingly did a checksum on this BIOS image and determined that it wasn't meant for my motherboard.

p.s. I have since updated the GA-G31M-ES2L to the latest and greatest firmware and attempted all the BIOS optimizations suggested for the GA-G31M-S2L (all the BIOS changes that were possible, that is). Unfortunately, my system is now hung at the at the initial POST screen with a completely scrambled, garbled, and illegible display. I need to figure out how to reset the BIOS before I can continue.

Incidentally, I would not recommend the slightly different mobo (the ES2L) as it doesn't appear to have the same BIOS tweaking capabilities (I haven't been able to find a way to change the memory parameters, for one).
