2.1.4 ASUS CrashFree BIOS 3 utility

The ASUS CrashFree BIOS 3 is an auto recovery tool that allows you to restore

the BIOS le when it fails or gets corrupted during the updating process. You can

update a corrupted BIOS le using the motherboard support CD, the USB ash

disk, or the oppy disk that contains the updated BIOS le.

• Prepare the motherboard support CD, the USB ash disk, or the oppy

disk containing the updated motherboard BIOS before using this utility.

• Make sure that you rename the original or updated BIOS le in the oppy

disk or the USB ash disk to P5B-VMSE. ROM.

If your display monitor is connected to the onboard VGA connector,

the display monitor will turn-off and the system will beep once while

CrashFree BIOS 3 starts updating your system. The system will

beep once again while the process is nished, and the display will

return after the system restarts.

To recover the BIOS from a oppy disk:

1. Turn on the system.

2. Insert the oppy disk with the original or updated BIOS le to the oppy disk

drive.

oppy disk for the original or updated BIOS le.
