BIOS Upgrade Instructions

-------------------------



The temporary directory should contain the following four files:

	README {this file}

	BIOS.EXE 

	LICENSE.TXT 

	MK_BOOTZ.EXE 



If all these files are not present, try extracting the downloaded

BIOS file again.





Upgrading to the Latest BIOS

-----------------------------





1.  Be sure to verify that the correct BIOS has been downloaded.  

2.  Enter BIOS SETUP upon boot up by pressing F2. 

3.  Write down all settings that are unique to the system. These

	settings will be needed later to reconfigure the system.

        Press F10 to exit BIOS.

4.  Create a bootable floppy diskette.

    a.	If you have an unformatted floppy, place the floppy in 

	drive a: and type "format a: /s".

    b.	If you have a formatted floppy, place the floppy in drive a: 

	and type "sys a:".

    c.	Extract ‘bios.exe’ to the bootable floppy:

	i.   In a DOS environment: Type "bios a:".

	ii.  In a non-DOS environment: Create a new directory. 

	     Move 'bios.exe' into the directory. Double click on 

	     'bios.exe'. Copy all the files in the directory 

	     except 'bios.exe' to the bootable floppy.

5.  Place the bootable floppy containing the new BIOS into drive 

	a: of the system to be upgraded and boot the system.

6.  When prompted that the BIOS has been successfully loaded, 

	remove the bootable floppy and reboot the system.

7.  In an AMI environment a checksum error will occur, press F1 

        to enter setup.

    In a Phoenix environment, press F2 to enter setup.

8.  On the first screen within SETUP, check the BIOS version to 

	ensure that it is the new version.

9.  In SETUP load the default values, by pressing the F9 key.

     If you do not set the values back to defaults the system 

     may function erratically.

10.  If the system has unique settings, re-enter those settings 

	now. Press F10 to save the values and exit Setup.
