Make a bootable floppy disk
Copy the Award flash utility & BIOS file to the said floppy disk
Create an autoexec.bat with "Award_Flash_Utility BiosFilename" in the content (e.g. awdfl823K w6378vms.130)

Sample on how to create an autoexec:
a. On Windows, open the notepad
b. On the notepad, write "awdfl823K w6378vms.130" (without the ")
c. Save the file as autoexec.bat

Boot up system with the said floppy (it will take less than 2 minutes before screen comes out)

Re-flash the BIOS & reboot.

When I found out of a possibility on recovering the PC if you falsh it with the wrong BIOS version, I thought that autoexec.bat should have lots of difficult to understand parameters and stuff, but it couldn't be more simple :). Thanks :P
