I was working on a system this week and i cam upon something i had yet to see. a dual BIOS system.
Why would u have a dual BIOS system, i have never seen or even heard of it.

i guess i should also find out who made the board too

Perhaps if you flash your BIOS and something goes wrong, you have a back-up copy of the BIOS that could be automatically transferred to the corrupt BIOS. Just an idea. I've never heard of one either.
