I copied the aflash2 folder after installing it with Wine and copied the
contents to a USB drive. Then I booted from a Vista live disc with the stick
connected but when I tried to launch the aflash2 utility it complained about
ASUS ATK0100 UTILITY (ACPI) not being found. So I'm going to try flashing
from a USB stick with DOS installed. I know this works in other computers
because I have done it several times.
