Exclamation Help with Floppy Drive!


Sorry for this kindda thread but thats the only way left for me!
I need helpfrom any Digit Member who has a floppy drive on his/her computer.
I need to upgrade my laptop BIOS and the only file I can get is a floppy self extracting image.
But I don't have a floppy drive and none of my friends have. I read the following solution on some forums.
Quote:
Well i successfully updated my 600E BIOS to the latest version with a CD.

I made a BIOS update floppy on my desktop PC.
Then i used Nero to create a BIOS update CD-R.
I simply choose to create a CD-ROM(Boot) in Nero and copied all the files from the floppy across to it.
Then in the compilation's Properties i choose to use the boot-sector from the floppy as the boot-sector for my CD.
Burnt it and successfully updated BIOS to latest version - no problems.

I've read in this forum that updating the 600E BIOS from CD is not possible but it worked for me.
So can any of you create a ISO for me with the above instructions?
Pls its urgent.
If any one is ready I can provide the link to that file[600KB only].
Thanks
