What BIOS revision do you have at the moment? It may be that function was removed from that BIOS revision.

However, if you have jumpered the AUDIO_EN jumper to 2-3, then the onboard sound should be disabled anyway.

What does the Blue Screen of Death say?

If you decide to flash the BIOS, then the safest method is to use AFLASH from a floppy disk. There are problems with EZFlash if your BIOS is 1005 or less.

If your BIOS is 1005 or higher, you can use AFLASH or EZ-FLASH.

But again, I would recommend you use AFLASH.
