2.1.4 ASUS BIOS Updater

The ASUS BIOS Updater allows you to update BIOS in DOS environment. This utility also

allows you to copy the current BIOS file that you can use as a backup when the BIOS fails or

gets corrupted during the updating process.

The succeeding utility screens are for reference only. The actual utility screen displays may

not be same as shown.

Before updating BIOS

1. Prepare the motherboard support DVD and a USB flash drive in FAT32/16 format and single

partition.

2. Download the latest BIOS file and BIOS Updater from the ASUS website at http://support.asus.com

and save them on the USB flash drive.

• NTFS is not supported under DOS environment. Do not save the BIOS file and BIOS

Updater to a hard disk drive or USB flash drive in NTFS format.

• Do not save the BIOS file to a floppy disk due to low disk capacity.

3. Turn off the computer and disconnect all SATA hard disk drives (optional).
