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 (awdash.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.
