Updating the BIOS file

To update the BIOS file using the AFUDOS utility:
1. Visit the ASUS website (www.asus.com) and download the latest BIOS file for

the motherboard. Save the BIOS file to a bootable floppy disk.

4. The utility reads the file and starts updating the BIOS.

Do not shut down or reset the system while updating the BIOS to prevent

system boot failure!

Write the BIOS filename on a piece of paper. You need to type the exact BIOS

filename at the DOS prompt.
