You can add the bios and flash program to a usb stick. Here's instructions on how to make a usb stick bootable:

I've only ever flashed from a floppy but a USB stick would be safer since floppies go bad on me all the time.

Also be sure to BACK UP YOUR OLD BIOS.

If you happen to have a bad flash and another motherboard I can help you recover it without needing any extra expensive equipment. ;-)
