Subject: BIOS Hacking?

There are BIOS vendors that have Windows-based flash programs so it's
certainly possible to modify the BIOS. My understanding is that there are a
huge number of specific different versions, even within one company like
Phoenix and even for particular OEMs, and a hack could easily end up having
to be version-specific.

Hi All,

Is there any way (software/program) to change the BootUp device order in the
BIOS from the OS (Eg. Windows) itself?

While logged on to my Win2k I want to change my BIOS settings?

Regards,
Gautam
