How to Flash a New BIOS

You can install updated BIOS for this mainboard that you can download from the manufacturer's web site. New BIOS may pro-vide support for new peripherals, improvements in performance or fixes for known bugs. Install new BIOS as follows: 

Some mainboards have a Flash BIOS jumper that pro-tects the current BIOS from being changed or overwritten.
 If your mainboard has this jumper, change the setting to allow BIOS flashing.

Some Setup Utilities have an item called Firmware Write Protect that prevents the BIOS from being overwritten.
 If your BIOS has this item (check the Advanced BIOS Fea-tures Setup page) disable it for the present.

Your computer must be running in a real-mode DOS envi-ronment, not the DOS window of Windows NT or
 Windows 95/98. We recommend that you create a new formatted DOS system floppy diskette.

Download the Flash Utility and new BIOS file from the manufacturer's Web site.
 Copy these files to a system diskette.

Turn off your computer and insert the system diskette in your computer's diskette drive.

You might need to run the Setup Utility and change the boot priority items on the Advanced BIOS Features
 Setup page, to force your computer to boot from the floppy diskette drive first.

At the A:\ prompt, type the Flash Utility program name (for example, AWDxxx.EXE) and press Enter.

In the opening dialog box, type in the file-name of the new BIOS and follow the onscreen directions to flash the
 new BIOS to the mainboard.

 When the installation is complete, remove the floppy diskette from the diskette drive and restart your
 computer. If your mainboard has a Flash BIOS jumper, reset the jumper to protect the newly installed
 BIOS from being overwritten.
