Recovering the BIOS from a floppy disk
To recover the BIOS from the support CD:
1. Remove any CD from the optical drive, then turn on the system.
2. Insert the floppy disk with the original or updated BIOS file to the
floppy disk drive.
3. The utility displays the following message and automatically checks
the floppy disk for the original or updated BIOS file.
4. Restart the system after the utility completes the updating process.
DO NOT shut down or reset the system while updating the BIOS! Doing
so can cause system boot failure!
When no CD is found, the utility automatically checks the optical
drive for the original or updated BIOS file. The utility then updates the
corrupted BIOS file.
