    First you need to write the bios file to a dvd as a data dvd.

    Next

    Switch on the GC with an original in and then choose Disc Explorer from the menu and then Explore DVD, It will then ask you to swap disc and swap for the disc you have wrote the bios file onto. Then just load the bios. It takes a few seconds to flash then restart the cube with the new bios.

    If you can't get it to work PM me as from your location i'm not far away and can easily flash it for you.

    maybe you had the GC that wasnt supported in the 03 bios.

    the original poster doesnt really state why he wants to upgrade, so maybe he has the same prob as you
