6.1.3 CrashFree BIOS feature

The CrashFree BIOS feature allows you to boot the computer from a
floppy disk and update the BIOS in case the original BIOS fails or gets
corrupted.

To update the BIOS:

1. Turn on the computer, and when prompted, place the bootable floppy

disk into the floppy drive, so that the computer boots from the floppy
disk.

2. Follow the BIOS update procedure in section “6.1.2 Using AFLASH to

update the BIOS.”

1. You must have a bootable floppy disk ready before updating the

BIOS.

2. The bootable floppy disk could be the one that you created

following the procedure in section 6.1.2, and should contain the
AFLASH.EXE utility.

3. If the BIOS fails (ROM data or codes are corrupted), a message

appears during POST indicating the failure.
