le for the motherboard and rename the same to WDG2WSP.ROM.

to the oppy disk drive or the USB port.
Press <Alt> + <F2> during POST to display the following.
This function can supp ort devices such as USB ash disk, or oppy
disk with FAT 32/16 format and single partition only.
Do not shutdown or reset the system while updating the BIOS to
prevent system boot failure!
4. When the correct BIOS le is found, EZ Flash 2 performs the BIOS
update process and automatically reboots the system when done.
