In a certain sense, the BIOS is always backed up. You need only go to the
MB manufacturers web site to find the original BIOS and all updates. If it
is just a question of a few settings being messed up, just download a file
and update the BIOS. Instructions are provided. Usually you will be asked
if you want to save the old BIOS. All done with a floppy.
