I like how the ASRock site tells me to update my system by downloading a zip file, extracting it, and putting it on a USB drive or floppy disk

it's 16mb, dude. Which floppy do you want me to put it on? a zip drive? DOES YOUR BIOS SUPPORT ZIP DRIVES?

@foone Zip files go on zip disks. That just makes sense.

@kawa yah. Where's the 7z disk?

@foone That's when you have seven zip disks.

@foone @kawa iomega is working on them, but the drives taking 7 different types of storage media are hard to manufacture.

obviously I'd try it but this is my roommate's machine and she wants it back and working, not broken because I tried to update the BIOS off a zip drive

I updated the bios and now it can't boot

it can see the HD, the one I just installed windows onto, and it can start installing, but it gets like a minute into booting and then says it can't access the boot device.

I'm sure this is fine
