Insert the floppy/USB flash disk that contains the latest BIOS file to the floppy disk
drive or the USB port, then launch EZ Flash 2. You can launch EZ Flash 2 in two ways.
a. Press <Alt> + <F2> during POST to display the following:
• Enter the BIOS setup program. Go to the Tools menu to select EZ Flash 2 and
press <Enter> to enable it.
Press <Tab> to switch between drives until the correct BIOS file is found.
4. When the correct BIOS file is found, EZ Flash 2 performs the BIOS update process
and automatically reboots the system when done.

format and single partition only.
