2.1.3 ASUS BIOS Updater

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

also allows you to copy the current BIOS le for 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.

FAT16/32 on a single partition.
