Q Flash Problem with new Build

I have just finished building my system with a 8KNXP motherboard. I
want to update the BIOS before I start with an OS installation. No
matter what I do I can not, in Q Flash, get the system to either save
the current BIOS to a floppy nor update the BIOS with the newest BIOS
from a floppy. No matter what I do I get the floppy drive to light up
and then make clicking sounds and then I get an error message that
says there is "Access Floppy Disc Error" either trying to save the old
BIOS or update with a new BIOS. My understanding is that this should
update and write without an OS. I have tried a different disc drive,
the floppy cable is in correctly, I have tried multiple floppy discs
all of which are functional on other computers. Has anyone had a
problem like this...or is this a problem with the floppy disc
controller on the motherboard??
