4.1.4 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. Download the latest BIOS le from the ASUS web site. Rename the le to
m2nsli.bin and save it to a oppy disk CD ROM or a USB ash disk in
FAT 16/12 format.
Save only the updated BIOS le in the oppy disk to avoid loading the wrong
BIOS le.
2. Copy the AwardBIOS Flash Utility (awdash.exe) from the Software folder of
the support CD to the oppy disk, CD-ROM, or USB ash disk with the latest
BIOS le.
3. Boot the system in DOS mode using the bootable oppy disk, CD-ROM, or
USB ash disk you created earlier.
4. When the A:> appears, replace the bootable oppy disk with the oppy disk
containing the new BIOS
le and the Award BIOS
Flash Utility.
