4.1.2 Updating the BIOS
The Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) can be updated using the
AwardBIOS Flash Utility (AWDFLASH.EXE). Follow these instructions to
update the BIOS using this utility.
1. Download the latest BIOS file from the ASUS website (see ASUS
contact info on page x of this user guide). Rename the file to *.BIN and
save it to a floppy disk.
2. Insert the disk that contains the new BIOS file into the floppy drive.
5. AWDFLASH checks the new BIOS file from the floppy disk.
6. After verification, AWDFLASH flashes the new BIOS file. Do not shut
down the computer during the flash process.
7. After the new BIOS file is copied, the computer returns to POST.
Save only the updated BIOS file in the floppy disk to avoid loading the
wrong BIOS file.
3. Reboot the computer.
4. Press <Alt> + <F2> during POST to display the following screen.
