I can't find BIOS anywhere for my mobo!

I've been searching for ever for BIOS for my k8m800-8237 Biostar mobo. Of course the first place I went was Biostar dot com & I couldn't find a thing. Then I went to Google. Guess what? Nothing. I'm stumped.

There might not be anything newer. I know with my old board there was about 6 over the past 5 years, and the newest from 2004

I've already updated my mobo bios then. I am on this driver agent site and it is telling me that my CPUs BIOS need to be updated, but I can't find any drivers for it.

Sites that offer you bios or driver "services" are a scam. Any drivers or BIOS updates you need can be found for free from the manufacturer. All they would do is DL the driver from the same place you would, put it on a disk and send it to you, or e-mail even.

It doesn't matter what combo of hardware you have, they'll still tell you you're outdated so they can make a buck. Don't listen.
