It's definetely the latest known Bios for the M6VBE with VIA693 chipset from Fujitsu-Siemens and has to be patched .
Just for Info : Do you have the M6VBE with VIA693 Chipset or the VIA692 Chipset Board ? > I heard the 693 Bios won't work on 692 based M6VBE .

The moderators of this Forum are able to patch the Bios for you .
