Checksum 6287h 
Fixes detection error of DIMM #4.  
[Note] Please follow steps below to flash this new type BIOS of AX6B motherboards.

Procedure:

Download this zipped file. 
Run shareware PKUNZIP (http://www.pkware.com/) which supports 
miscellaneous operation systems to extract the binary BIOS file and the
flash utility. Or Winzip (http://www.winzip.com/) in Windows environment. 
Save "AX6B235.EXE" and "AX6B235.BIN" to a DOS floppy disk.
Reboot your system with this disk without loading any memory handler 
(suh as EMM386) or device driver to get as much free space as possible. 
If you have an EPROM writer, simply take the .BIN file to program your 
BIOS. 
Execute A:>AX6B235 and the program will do the rest of it. 
DO NOT turn off power during flashing process, until you are asked to!! 
Reboot system and press "DEL" to enter BIOS setup, load "BIOS SETUP 
DEFAULT", then SAVE and EXIT. Done!
