    HI,
    I am looking for a Tutorial or a detailed instructions for BIOS Flash in Acer Aspire 5610z which doesn't have a floppy drive.
    Is there any utility which can be used to Flash BIOS. I know I don't need to update the BIOS unless it's absolutely essential but as a matter of interest I would like to know how it is done without a floppy drive and I am sure there must be a correct procedure which I am interested to know. Thanks for any input.

    Thanks Chris for the response, I have found the Acer support site to be helpful, though I'm not going to update my BIOS v3.33 which is working perfectly, at least I have found out something new(for me) today. Thanks to all who read the post.
