3.2 Updating the BIOS
To update the BIOS, you will need the new BIOS file and a flash
utility, AWDFLASH.EXE. Please contact technical support or your
sales representative for these files.
1. Save the BIOS along with the flash utility AWDFLASH.EXE to a
floppy disk.
2. Insert the floppy disk into a floppy drive and power-on the
system. Press the <Alt> and <F2> keys simultaneously. The utility,
which works only in DOS mode, will update the new BIOS file
to the programmable flash EEPROM that is on the mainboard.
The new BIOS will permanently replace the original BIOS content
after flashing.
