Appendix B Flash BIOS
programming
The Raptor AT offers the optional FLASH BIOS. When installed, you
will be able to update your BIOS without having to replace the
EPROM. The AMIBIOS will read the new BIOS file from a floppy
disk, replace the old BIOS and reboot your computer.
When updating your BIOS, make sure you have a disk with the correct
BIOS file (its size should be 256K).
Rename the file to "AMIBOOT.ROM". Turn your computer off. Move
Jumper JP2 to 2-3. Insert the disk in Drive A:, Turn the computer on
while pressing <CTRL><HOME>. Your computer will show no
screen, but will beep to indicate what is being done.
If the programming is successful, you should hear 4 beeps and your
computer will reboot with the new BIOS.
Please never turn the power off while reprogramming a FLASH BIOS.
Do not forget to move Jumper JP2 back to 1-2 after turning off.
Refer to the table on the next page for beep errors.
