How about hotflash? I have a few mobos with removable bios-chip: 815ep Pro, K7S41GX, VB-601. I've tested AFUDOS with them, but it just gives some error: the bios doesn't support AFU, The Bios information isn't available etc.
EDIT: Oops, the bios was Phoenix Award, I will try some other tools but afudos.
EDIT2: Awardbios v8.54B and earlier:
Flash Type -
File Name to Program: asusbios.bin
NVMAC : LAN =FF328DF000E73900
NVGUID : 1394 =FF328DF000E73900
Message: Binary File is not Award BIOS!
BIOS Image File is for nForce Chipset Only!

I'm now using K7S41GX. How could I force the update anyway? Already tried /f command.
8.94:

/f command doesn't work anymore with 8.94, it simply doesn't exist anymore
