Type in the whole file name, e.g. 1854v100.BIN, and confirm that you want
to program the BIOS. The utility will then Blank, Erase, and Program
the flash memory on the mainboard with the new BIOS file. You should
choose Yes to save the original system BIOS to a floppy diskette before
you program the new BIOS. This leaves you with a backup of your original
BIOS in case you need to re-install it. If you cannot successfully program the
new BIOS file for some reason, re-install your original BIOS from the backup
file. Remember, always reset the CMOS after flashing to a new BIOS (see
page 17).
Warning: If you do not successfully install a complete BIOS file in the flash
memory on the mainboard, your system may not be able to boot. If this hap-
pens, it will require service by your system vendor. Follow the instructions in
this section precisely to avoid such an inconvenience.
