5.1.4 Using ASUS EZ Flash to update the BIOS

The ASUS EZ Flash feature allows you to easily update the BIOS without

having to go through the long process of booting from a floppy disk and

using a DOS-based utility. The EZ Flash is built-in the BIOS LPC chip so it

is accessible by simply pressing <Alt> + <F2> during the Power-On Self

Tests (POST).

To update the BIOS using ASUS EZ Flash:

1. Visit the system builder website to download the latest BIOS file for

your motherboard and rename it to P4S800-MX.ROM. Save the BIOS

file to a floppy disk.

2. Reboot the system.

3. To launch EZ Flash, press <Alt> + <F2> during POST to display the

following.

User recovery requested. Starting BIOS recovery...

Checking for floppy...

• If there is no floppy disk in the drive, the error message “Floppy not

found!” appears.

• If the correct BIOS file is not found in the floppy disk, the error

message “P4S800-MX.ROM not found!” is displayed.
