Flash Writer Utility

The AMI Flash Writer Utility is now included in the AMIBIOS, and so it is
simpler to upgrade the BIOS of your mainboard. The system BIOS is stored on
a flash EEPROM chip on the mainboard which can be erased and repro-
grammed by following the directions below.
1. From the DOS prompt, rename the BIOS file that you have downloaded to
"amiboot.rom" and copy it on to a floppy disk.
2. Insert the floppy disk with the BIOS upgrade into the A: drive.
3. Turn the power off.
4. While holding the <Ctrl> and <Home> keys, turn the power on. The system
will begin to read from the A: drive, and write the BIOS information contained
on the floppy disk in that drive to the EEPROM chip. When the BIOS has been
totally reprogrammed, the system will reboot with the new BIOS in operation.
5. If the system does not reboot in three minutes, power down the system, wait
a few seconds, and then turn the power back on again. You will be prompted to
press <F1> to run Setup. You may check your settings at this time, or simply
save and exit the program.
