The ASUS EZ Flash feature 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 utility is built-in the BIOS chip so it is
accessible by pressing <Alt> + <F2> during the Power-On Self Tests
(POST).
To update the BIOS using EZ Flash:
1. Visit the ASUS website (www.asus.com) to download the latest BIOS
file for the motherboard and rename the same to P 5 C R L S . R O M
P 5 C R L S . R O M P 5 C R L S . R O M P 5 C R L S . R O M P 5 C R L S . R O M or
P 5 C R L . R O M P 5 C R L . R O M P 5 C R L . R O M P 5 C R L . R O M P 5 C R L . R O M, depending on your motherboard model.
2. Save the BIOS file to a floppy disk, then restart the system.
3. Press <Alt> + <F2> during POST to display the following.

4. Insert the floppy disk that contains the BIOS file to the floppy disk
drive. When the correct BIOS file is found, EZ Flash performs the BIOS
update process and automatically reboots the system when done.

(e.g. P 5 C R L S . R O M
P 5 C R L S . R O M P 5 C R L S . R O M P 5 C R L S . R O M P 5 C R L S . R O M for P5CR-LS model, and P 5 C R L . R O M P 5 C R L . R O M P 5 C R L . R O M P 5 C R L . R O M P 5 C R L . R O M for P5CR-L
