I have a gigabyte ga-k8ns motherboard and I recently flashed my bios. The bios files for my motherboard where being distributed in self extracting rar files, which were .exe's. You might need to use windows (or wine, etc) to run the selt-extractor so you can get the actual bios file.

Well it took installing and setting up Wine,install bios_7vt600_f15.exe, run it, which produced 7vt600.f15 and flash879.exe.Put them on a floppy booted into the BIOS install and the file 7vt600.f15 was loaded into the BIOS.
These were LHA files.

Thanks Endy     david
