Hi cnpr,

Yes, there is an updated 11/28/95-SIS-85C471B/E/G-2C4I9G01-00 BIOS for your GA-486VS. This BIOS supports all socket 3 CPUs, including the Cyrix 5x86 and Am5x86 in L1 cache WB and x4 multiplier mode. It’s also free of the year 2094 and 2GB HDD display limit bugs and supports drives up to 8GiB.

Look here for more information:
