Upgrading the BIOS
Your computer’s BIOS is stored on a flash device, making it
easy to upgrade the BIOS by running a utility from a diskette,
hard disk, or network. You can use the BIOS upgrade and
recovery utility to do the following:
0
Update the flash BIOS from a file on disk
0
Copy the current BIOS code from the flash device to a disk
file to provide a backup if the upgrade cannot be finished
0
Compare the flash BIOS to a disk file to verify that the
versions are the same and ensure that the system has the
correct BIOS version.
If you need to upgrade your BIOS, the BIOS upgrade and
recovery utility and your new BIOS file will be available
through the following sources:
Call the EPSON Connection at l-800-922-8911 (in the
United States) or l-800-GO-EPSON (in Canada) and ask for
technical assistance. The technical support staff will help
you download the file from the EPSON Bulletin Board
System.
Call CompuServe to access the Epson America Forum. See
page 8 of the Introduction in this manual, if necessary, for
instructions on contacting CompuServe.
Once you obtain the utility and the new BIOS file, you can copy
them to a bootable diskette to upgrade your system. If you
want to run the utility from your hard disk or a network drive,
you must remove any installed memory managers before you
perform the upgrade.
