BIOS Issue
Where can I find the BIOS revision of my mainboard?
It will be displayed on the upper-left corner of the screen during
boot-up. It will show as your board type followed by the revision
number, such as kvxa_2BA1 (meaning BIOS revision 2BA1 for the
SY-K7V Dragon plus! board) or 6BA+ IV_2AA2 which means
SY-6BA+ IV motherboard with the 2AA2 BIOS.
Where can I find the latest BIOS of my motherboard?
Please go to the technical support page of one of the SOYO websites

look up your motherboard to find the latest BIOS revision.
