for future reference to readers:
at the bottom of that firmware page it says this:

Hmmmm, missed that first time round, is it a problem for you?
.........
yes, right, do this ...........
search for a bootable dos floppy image ,any will do.
load up magic ISO maker or something.
look for the 'load boot image' or somethig like that, and load up that bootable floppy image.
add your
Atiflash v3.09 or whatever plus the new bios/rom/firmware whatever you want to call it.
WRITE THE CDRW out.
boot the cd, find the drive letter its using for the cd bit
and run your ati app, done, power cycle or whatevr you like
hope you put the right one on and it didnt glitch at the wrong time, be happy
(or sad................................%^^^$%^$%^).
