The solution you seek is here:

Note that it directs you to a firmware upgrade method using two USB sticks & FreeDOS here:

This was designed for System76 PCs but appears to work for many other systems. If not, a similar approach could be followed for any system by using bootable images direct from FreeDOS. I intend to produce a generic HOWTO for this over the coming weeks so any comments on your success or otherwise would be appreciated.
