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.
