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

restore the BIOS file when it fails or gets corrupted during the updating

process. You can update a corrupted BIOS file using the motherboard

support CD or the floppy disk that contains the updated BIOS file.

before using this utility.

• Make sure that you rename the original or updated BIOS file in the

floppy disk to
