2.2 BIOS update utility
USB BIOS Flashback
USB BIOS Flashback allows you to easily update the BIOS without entering the existing
BIOS or operating system. Simply insert a USB storage device to the USB port, press the
USB BIOS Flashback button for three seconds, and the BIOS is updated automatically.
To use USB BIOS Flashback:
1. Place the bundled support DVD to the optical drive and install the USB BIOS
Flashback Wizard. Follow the onscreen instructions to complete the installation.
2. Insert the USB storage device to the USB Flashback port.
We recommend you use a USB 2.0 storage device to save the latest BIOS version for
better compatibility and stability.
3. Launch the USB BIOS Flashback Wizard to automatically download the latest BIOS
version.
4. Press the BIOS Flashback button for three seconds until a ashing light appears, which
indicates that the BIOS Flashback function is enabled.
5. Wait until the light goes out, indicating that the BIOS updating process is completed.
