Well, this mobo hardly exists:-) E.g., now I cannot find it on ASUS any more. Once I was able to do it and then I downloaded something that seems to be BIOS version 1003i. Currently it says BIOS version 1003. No idea if it is any newer and if it would help... Honestly, I am not very keen on frying it - I would rather live with having to do audio-recording on the horrible Compaq AP400:-) Apart from that, I don't have any possibility to create a DOS floppy atm, earliest on Monday. Would FreeDOS do? Or is the danger to kill the BIOS then even bigger? BTW, RAM should be fine - tested it after buying.
