2.1.3 ASUS CrashFree BIOS

The ASUS CrashFree BIOS 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 restore a corrupted BIOS

le using the motherboard support DVD or a removable device that contains the updated

BIOS le.

• The BIOS le in the support DVD may not be the latest version. Download the latest

BIOS le from the ASUS website at www.asus.com.

• The removable devices that ASUS CrashFree BIOS support vary with motherboard

models. For motherboards without the oppy connector, prepare a USB ash disk before

using this utility.

2. Insert the support DVD to the optical drive or the removable device that contains the

BIOS le to the USB port or to the oppy disk drive, if supported.

reads the BIOS le and starts ashing the corrupted BIOS le.
