2-6 Chapter 2: BIOS setup
To update the BIOS using EZ Flash 2:
1. Visit the ASUS website (www.asus.com) to download the latest BIOS le for
the motherboard.
2. Save the BIOS le to a oppy disk, then restart the system.
3. You can launch the EZ Flash 2 by two methods.
(1) Insert the oppy disk/USB ash disk that contains the BIOS le to
the oppy disk drive or the USB port.
2.1.3 ASUS EZ Flash 2 utility
The ASUS EZ Flash 2 feature allows you to update the BIOS without having to go
through the long process of booting from a oppy disk and using a DOS-based
utility. The EZ Flash 2 utility is built-in the BIOS chip so it is accessible by pressing
<Alt> + <F2> during the Power-On Self Tests (POST).
This function can support devices such as USB ash disk, hard disk,
or oppy disk with FAT32/16/12 format only.
Do not shut down or reset the system while updating the BIOS to
prevent system boot failure!
