BIOS Upgrade Instructions 5.1 Creating a Bootable Floppy You must use a DOS system to create the bootable floppy. 1)Place an unformatted floppy diskette in the floppy drive and format the floppy using the /S option. example: "format a: /s" 2)Alternatively, place a formatted floppy in the floppy drive and use the "sys" command. example: "sys a:" * If you are using Windows Me(Millennium Edition), you can not execute the "sys" and "format /s" commands. Please use Windows98(or Second Edition). 5.2 Making a BIOS Upgrade Floppy 1)Follow the instructions (above) for creating a bootable floppy to create a bootable floppy diskette. 2)Insert the bootable floppy into drive a:. 3)Extract the contents of the BIOS.EXE file onto the bootable floppy. Simply type the filename (with or without the extension),for example "BIOS.EXE". You will be prompted to confirm a folder in which to store the extracted files. The BIOS upgrade image are extracted in the specified folder. 5.3 Upgrading a BIOS 1)Note the settings of the SETUP parameters. Enter SETUP by hitting the F2 key during boot up. Write down the settings for each of parameters. At the end of the BIOS update process you should set the parameters to default values by hitting the F9 key, and then re-enter these values you have written down. 2)Place the bootable floppy containing the BIOS into drive a: of the system that you want to upgrade and boot the system while the floppy diskette is in the drive. 3)Boot the system from the floppy disk drive. 4)At this point you have a choice. Press 1 and ENTER to automatically update the system BIOS. This will update the system BIOS and reset the system. Press 2 and ENTER to update the User Binary and reset the system. 5)Check to make sure the BIOS version is the new version as the system reboots. 6)Enter Setup by pressing the F2 key during boot up. Once in Setup, press the F9 to set the parameters back to default values. Re-enter the values you wrote down at the beginning of this process. If you do not set the CMOS values back to defaults using the F9 key, the system may function erratically. Note: you may encounter a CMOS Checksum error or other problem after reboot. Try shutting down the system and booting up again. CMOS checksum errors require that you enter Setup, check your settings, save your settings, and exit Setup.
