Important: Please be sure to download the version that corresponds to your specific card. To determine the correct version for your board, you will need to know the sub-system ID of your Viper II. This is the 4-digit string following your bios version, and is briefly visible when the system first powers on (for example, 1.06C5932 - the sub-system ID would be 5932). Alternatively, you can use the DOS utility 'debug' to identify your Viper II - from within Windows, click on Start->Run and type in "debug" (without quotes). At the blinking prompt, type "DC000:50" (again, without quotes). The full BIOS version including sub-system ID will be displayed on the right hand side of the window. If you do not see your sub-system ID listed below, please contact your system manufacturer for details. If you attempt to flash with the wrong update, the flash utility will not allow it.
