The Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) can be updated using the built-in
Flash Memory Writer utility or using a bootable floppy disk with the
executable Flash Memory Writer Utility (AWDFLASH.EXE). Follow these
instructions to update the BIOS using this utility.
Save only the updated BIOS file in the floppy disk to avoid loading a
wrong BIOS file.
1. Download the latest BIOS file from the ASUS website (www.asus.com).
Rename the file to C3V.BIN and save it to the bootable floppy disk
you created earlier.
2. Insert the disk that contains the new BIOS file into the floppy drive.
3. Reboot the computer.
