3.2.3 ASUS CrashFree BIOS utility

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

le when it fails or gets corrupted during the updating process. You can restore a corrupted

BIOS le using the motherboard support DVD or a removable device that contains the BIOS

le.

• The BIOS le in the motherboard support DVD may be older than the BIOS le

published on the ASUS ofcial website. If you want to use the newer BIOS le,

download the le at support.asus.com and save it to a removable device.

• The removable devices supported by ASUS CrashFree BIOS utility vary with

motherboard models. For motherboards without the oppy connector, prepare a USB

ash disk before using this utility.
