2.1.5 ASUS EZ Flash utility

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

accessible by pressing <Alt> + <F2> during the Power-On Self-Test (POST).

To update the BIOS using EZ Flash:

ﬁle for the motherboard.

2. Save the BIOS ﬁle to a ﬂoppy disk, then restart the system.

3. Press <Alt> + <F2> during POST to display the following.

Insert Disk then press Enter or ESC to continue POST

4. Insert the ﬂoppy disk

that contains the BIOS

ﬁle to the ﬂoppy disk

drive then press <Enter>.

The following screen

appears.

system boot failure!
