3.1.2 ASUS EZ Flash 2 utility
ASUS EZ Flash 2 allows you to update the BIOS without having to go through the
long process of booting from a floppy disk and using a DOS-based utility. The
EZ Flash 2 utility is built in the BIOS chip so it is accessible by pressing <Alt> +
<F2> during the Power-On Self-Test (POST).
To update the BIOS using EZ Flash 2:
1. Download the latest BIOS file for this motherboard from the ASUS website at
www.asus.com.
2. Save the BIOS file to a floppy disk or a USB flash disk, then restart the
system.
3. Launch EZ Flash 2 using either of the following methods.
(1) Press <Alt> + <F2> during POST to display the following.
(2) Enter the BIOS setup program. Go to Tools > EZ Flash 2 then press
<Enter>.
4. Press <Tab> to locate the correct file. Press <Enter>.
When the correct BIOS file is found, EZ Flash 2 performs the BIOS updating
process and automatically reboots the system when done.
