3.1.4 Updating the BIOS
The Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) can be updated using the AwardBIOS
Flash Utility. Follow these instructions to update the BIOS using this utility.
1. Visit the ASUS website (www.asus.com) and download the latest BIOS le for
the motherboard. Save the BIOS le to a bootable oppy disk or a USB ash
disk in FAT 16/12 format.
Save only the updated BIOS le in the disk to avoid loading the wrong BIOS le.
2. Copy the AwardBIOS Flash Utility (awdash.exe) from the Software folder of
the support DVD to the oppy disk or the USB ash disk with the latest BIOS
le.
3. Boot the system in DOS mode using the oppy disk or the USB ash disk you
created earlier.
4. Under the DOS mode, use <X:> (X stands for the name of the disk
assignment) to switch to the folder of the oppy disk or the USB ash disk
you saved the BIOS le and AwardBIOS Flash Utility.
5. At the prompt, type
awdash then press
<Enter>. The AwardBIOS
Flash Utility screen
appears.
