I'm hoping that this group will have knowledge that I have not been able
to find via websearches.

I'm trying to build a machine for my student son to use for office apps
and internet (cable connection). I have a P5BV3_, Rev: B4 that I ran
with an AMD K6-2/450 3DNOW chip. The BIOS does not support large hard
drives (and probably not K^-2, "officially")

I would like to flash him a new BIOS so he can install a large drive
without adding a RAID card.

Does anyone know of a location where I can find BIOS information for
this board? The FIC site diesn't even list the board model number on its
download site.

TIA/The Fader

Try the Asus web site, the p5b is an Asus board.
