Recovering the BIOS (Crisis Mode)
If for some reason the BIOS is corrupted and the standard flash cannot be
used, use the BIOS Recovery Mode (exceptional BIOS recovery operation)
to restore the BIOS.
The following recovery operation is also documented in the flash.txt file
which is supplied with the downloaded BIOS files.
To restore the BIOS:
1 Copy the BIOS files on to the floppy disk.
2 Rename the file AI11xx.rom to
amiboot.rom.
3 Shut down the PC Workstation.
4 Power off the PC Workstation and remove the power cord and cables.
5 Remove the cover.
6 Set switch 1
to the DOWN position.
7 Insert the floppy disk into the floppy disk drive.
8 Reconnect the power cord and switch on the PC Workstation.
9 The PC Workstation boots from the floppy disk, then flashes the BIOS.
However, it should be noted that during the flash process, the screen
remains blank. MaxiLife will display a message on the LCD panel
“RECOVERY MODE”.
10 The recovery process is finished when there are four beeps.
11 Power off the PC Workstation. Remove the floppy disk from the drive.
Remove the power cord.
12 Set switch 1
back to the UP position.
13 Replace the cover, reconnect the power cord, then reboot the PC
Workstation.
