2.1.2 ASUS EZ Flash utility

The ASUS EZ Flash feature allows you to update the BIOS without having to go

through the long process of booting from a oppy 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 le for

the motherboard and rename the same to P5BMXWAP.ROM.

2. Save the BIOS le to a oppy disk, then restart the system.

3. Press <Alt> + <F2> during POST to display the following.

EZFlash starting BIOS update

Checking for oppy...

4. Insert the oppy disk that contains the BIOS le to the oppy disk drive.

When the correct BIOS le is found, EZ Flash performs the BIOS update

process and automatically reboots the system when done.

Flashed successfully. Rebooting.

• Do not shut down or reset the system while updating the BIOS to prevent

system boot failure!

• A “Floppy not found!” error message appears if there is no oppy disk in the

drive. A “P5BMXWAP.ROM not found!” error message appears if the correct

BIOS le is not found in the oppy disk. Make sure that you rename the

BIOS le to P5BMXWAP.ROM.
