BIOS Update Procedure
Use this procedure to reprogram the computer's BIOS.
The computer contains the latest version of BIOS available
when manufactured, but later revisions might be available.
There are two reasons for replacing the BIOS.
1. To have a more recent version of BIOS that adds
features that enhance the computer's performance.
2. To reinstall the BIOS on a computer in which the
BIOS has become corrupt.
After you select this option, the current BIOS version will
be displayed. You will be asked if you want to overwrite
the current BIOS version. If you answer Yes, the
computer will look for the BIOS image file on drive A and
install it.
Note: Always operate the computer on AC power when
updating the BIOS.
