Updating the BIOS

CAUTION

The AUTOEXEC.BAT file provided with the update files updates the BIOS. Do not interrupt the

process or the system may not function.

1. Boot the computer with the BIOS update diskette in drive A. During system boot, the

AUTOEXEC.BAT file provided with the update files will automatically run the BIOS update

process.

2. When the update process is complete, the monitor will display a message telling you to remove

the diskette and to reboot the system.

3. As the computer boots, check the BIOS identifier (version number) to make sure the update

was successful. If a logo appears, press

<Esc> to view the POST messages.

Recovering the BIOS

It is unlikely that anything will interrupt the BIOS update; however, if an interruption occurs, the

BIOS could be damaged. The following steps explain how to recover the BIOS if an update fails.

The following procedure uses recovery mode for the Setup program. See page 58 for more

information on Setup modes.

NOTE

Because of the small amount of code available in the boot block area, there is no video support.

You will not see anything on the screen during this procedure. Monitor the procedure by listening

to the speaker and looking at the diskette drive LED.

1. Turn off the computer, disconnect the computer’s power cord, and disconnect all external

peripherals.

2. Remove the computer cover and locate the configuration jumper block (see Figure 18).

3. Remove the jumper from all pins as shown below to set recovery mode for Setup.
