I know there are several here running this board, S2460.
In case you have read that there is a new bios, but were not sure
what the improvement was.
I dont need the update. mine is fine with no issues. mine has never
reboot on selecting a shut-down.

Beta-BIOS  Downloads

 The BIOS updates listed below are beta versions only. They are our most recent
beta BIOS files, engineered to add/enhance features such as updating hard drive
support to 80GB, updating the latest C-0 micro-coding for Intel's Pentium III
processors, etc.



2466100k.exe
 S2466
 * Resolves issue with ATI Radeon hanging during post.
* Adds ability to completely disable serial ports in BIOS.
* Resolves ESC key not working in Option ROM BIOS.
* Improves IDE performance
* Improves memory compatibility


amd20912.exe
 S2462
 * Fix dual monitor support for either AGP & PCI or AGP
* & onboard ATI.
* Add ability to disable Serial ports in BIOS & ACPI O/S.


v10316.exe
 S2460
 * Permanently disables WOL when the system is
* shutdown, so system doesn't reboot when shutdown
* from Win2000 or WinXP with Firewire Card.
* Fixes 'Half text' display issue after exiting motherboard
* BIOS when using the ATI Radeon 8500.
* Add option to disable IRQ for PCI VGA.


NOTE:  Understand that these updates are STRICTLY in beta stage, and are not
"production worthy" at this time. If you have problems with any of the beta BIOS
versions listed here, Tyan Technical Support will strongly encourage you to
flash your BIOS to a fully supported version.
