2.1.4 Updating the BIOS
The Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) can be updated using the
AwardBIOS Flash Utility. Follow these instructions to update the BIOS using
this utility.
1. Download the latest BIOS le from the ASUS web site. Rename the le
to M2N-VMDH.BIN and save it to a oppy disk, CD ROM or a USB ash
disk in FAT 16/12 format.
Save only the updated BIOS le in the oppy disk to avoid loading the
wrong BIOS le.
2. Copy the AwardBIOS Flash Utility (awdash.exe) from the Software
folder of the support CD to the oppy disk, CD ROM or a USB ash
disk with the latest BIOS le.
3. Boot the system in DOS mode using the bootable oppy disk, CD ROM
or a USB ash disk you created earlier.
