ASUS.CrashFree.BIOS

The ASUS CrashFree BIOS is an auto recovery tool that allows you to restore

the BIOS file when it fails or gets corrupted during the updating process. You can

restore a corrupted BIOS file using the motherboard support DVD or a removable

device that contains the updated BIOS file.

• The BIOS file in the support DVD may not be the latest version. Download

the latest BIOS file from the ASUS website at www.asus.com.

• The removable devices that ASUS CrashFree BIOS support vary with

motherboard models. For motherboards without the floppy connector,

prepare a USB flash disk before using this utility.

Recovering.the.BIOS

To recover the BIOS:

1. Turn on the system.
2. Insert the support DVD to the optical drive or the removable device that

contains the BIOS file to the USB port or to the floppy disk drive, if supported.

3. The utility automatically checks the devices for the BIOS file. When found,

the utility reads the BIOS file and starts flashing the corrupted BIOS file.

4. Turn off the system after the utility completes the updating process and turn

on again.

DO NOT shut down or reset the system while updating the BIOS! Doing so can

cause system boot failure!

Ensure to load the BIOS default settings to ensure system compatibility and

stability. Select the Load Setup Defaults item under the Exit menu. Refer to

section 4.8.Exit.menu for details.
