I'm gonna flash the BIOS on my K9A2 Platinum whenever I reassemble my rig, but I have a question:

If I have BIOS 1.0, can I just straightaway flash to 1.5?
I noticed there's a fix in BIOS 1.3 to support AM2+ CPUs, so would I have to flash the board to 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, etc. or will BIOS 1.5 have all of the older BIOS fixes?

The new one should include everything.

be sure to keep a copy of your current bios version as well...

It can be a real pain to flash and have it corrupt something and become un-bootable and then have to try to locate the older flash on another computer.

Ok, thanks for the help guys. This'll be my first BIOS flash, when I get around to reassembling my case.
