I'm willing to add my experience as to whether the BIOS update fixes the problem, but I need to get a bootable DOS medium in order to flash the BIOS. I've had no luck so far getting my USB key to boot into FreeDOS and I don't have a floppy drive available. As soon as I figure it out I'll post the results back here.
