(I'm sending again, from correct email account, sorry for the mess)

hello :)

can you tell me if I can succesfully flash my motherboard Asus A8N-E,
with dualcore processor AMD 4400+, and use it? Or where I can check it
(I looked at the website, but couldn't find any related info).

is it possible 'out of the box'? or maybe I need to apply some patches
first, or maybe it hasn't been even tested yet?

here is my lspci:
