3.6  BIOS Updates 
The BIOS can be updated using either of the following utilities, which are available on 
the Intel World Wide Web site: 
•  Intel
®
 Express BIOS Update utility, which enables automated updating while in the 
Windows environment.  Using this utility, the BIOS can be updated from a file on a 
hard disk, a USB drive (a flash drive or a USB hard drive), or a CD-ROM, or from 
the file location on the Web. 
•  Intel
®
 Flash Memory Update Utility, which requires booting from DOS.  Using this 
utility, the BIOS can be updated from a file on a hard disk, a USB drive (a flash 
drive or a USB hard drive), or a CD-ROM. 
Both utilities verify that the updated BIOS matches the target system to prevent 
accidentally installing an incompatible BIOS. 
 
NOTE 
Review the instructions distributed with the upgrade utility before attempting a BIOS 
update.
