    Qflash flashing method (pressing 'End' button during POST) is just as good as flashing with a DOS boot floppy disk. More convenient too.

    ssv3 is just the method the slic table was inserted into the bios you downloaded it has no other significance

    flashing from dos requires a floppy drive and making a boot disc

    Nothing wrong with using QFlash.

    (or that should read... there's nothing around to suggest Qflash is any worse)
