What board are you wanting to do this on? – MaQleod – 2011-03-21T07:43:54.173

Hi, MaQleod, I'm using an average ASUS motherboard. – grandproducts – 2011-03-21T08:13:58.377

2AFAIK, the only way to do it (from a technical point of view) is to delegate all BIOS accesses to a device driver in ring0. This is what the official configuration tools do, I'd guess. – user1686 – 2011-03-21T12:48:25.707

For ASUS boards, you can update the BIOS using their utility which will run within windows.

I do hope they spent more time on the actual configuration code than on the horrible appearance... – user1686 – 2011-03-21T12:46:20.730
