Just to add more info: I just downloaded the 1007 Bios for the 2.0 
revision of the A7N8X-Deluxe series... Then , I used the proggie made by 
asus to download the "updated" bios from their sites and saved it on 
other folder.. Here's the description for the update shown by the 
program (I didnt understand it , as I dont speak german , but I can see 
that it is marked as beta):
Wichtig:
Laden Sie VOR & NACH jedem Update
im BIOS die "Setup defaults" !
Ein BIOS-Update geschieht generell
auf eigene Gefahr.

ACHTUNG    !
Diese BIOS ist nur für die
Platinen Revisionen 2.xx !
(siehe Platinenaufdruck)

FINAL    =    beta Status
1007    =    1007.005

Änderungen der Finalversionen
finden Sie stets unter:
http://download.asus.com.tw
Änderungen der Betaversionen
werden nicht veröffentlicht.

I've saved a copy of the bios I had on my computer and the md5sum doesnt 
match  the md5 of the bios downloaded from their site or using their 
proggie.. 
Right now I'm on the asus download page and I found another beta bios , 
but they dont have much information about what it does (the description 
on the site is: "The latest Beta BIOS.").

I'm gonna do some more tests , as I have flashed my computer with the 
latest released bios downloaded by me from the asus site...
