The ASUS EZ Flash 2 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

<Alt> + <F2> during the Power-On Self Tests (POST).
To update the BIOS using EZ Flash 2:
1. Visit the ASUS website (www.asus.com) to download the latest BIOS file for
the motherboard.
2. Save the BIOS file to a floppy disk or a USB flash disk, then restart the
system.
3. You can launch the EZ Flash 2 in two ways.
(1) Insert the floppy disk / USB flash disk that contains the BIOS file to the
floppy disk drive or the USB port.
Press <Alt> + <F2> during POST to display the following.
(2) Enter BIOS setup program. Go to the Tools menu then select EZ Flash
2 and press <Enter>.
You can switch between drives by pressing <Tab> before the correct file
is found. Then press <Enter>.
