4.1.4 Using ASUS EZ Flash 2 to update the BIOS
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 utility. The EZ Flash 2 utility is built-in the BIOS chip
so it is accessible by pressing <Alt> + <F2> during the Power-On Self-
Test (POST).
To update the BIOS using ASUS 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 by two methods.
(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.
