IV. BIOS SOFTWARE

1. Save Current BIOS to File

This option allows you to copy the contents of the Flash memory chip into a file in

the \FLASH directory. This gives you a backup copy of the original motherboard

BIOS in case you need to re-install it. In such cases where the data on the chip get

lost or corrupted, you can reprogram the chip using this backup copy. We strongly

recommend that you perform this procedure.

a backup file created by the “Save Current BIOS to File” option. This will not

update the Boot Block if the Boot Block is different. You will be prompted with the
