When you are ready to upgrade your BIOS, follow these steps:

Run the Setup program and make a note of your current
settings so you can enter them again later, if necessary.
Turn off the system.
Change the setting of jumper J12H1 on your main system
board so it is set to enable BIOS upgrades. See Chapter 4 for
instructions.
Insert the bootable diskette containing the BIOS upgrade
utility and the new BIOS file in drive A.
Turn on your system.
The system boots from the diskette and you see the BIOS
upgrade utility title screen. Press Enter.
You see the Main Menu. Select Update FLASH Memory

At the
next menu, select Update System BIOS.
You see the Enter Path/Filename screen. Selectthe
.BIO file you copied to the diskette.
10. The utility asks you to confirm loading of the new BIOS.
Select Continue with programming.
11. The utility upgrades your BIOS and you see a message
confirming the success of the operation. (If you receive an
error message or have other problems, see the next section
to recover your BIOS.)
12. Remove the diskette from drive A and press Enter to reboot
your system and verify that it starts correctly. (If you do not
have a hard disk drive, you will see a message asking you
to insert a bootable diskette; this is normal.)
