The ASUS CrashFree BIOS 3 is an auto recovery tool that allows you to restore the BIOS le
when it fails or gets corrupted during the updating process. You can restore a corrupted BIOS
le using the motherboard support DVD or a USB ash drive that contains the updated BIOS
le.
• Before using this utility, rename the BIOS le in the removable device into
P8H77VL.ROM.

BIOS le from the ASUS website at www.asus.com.
