3 Programming the Flash ROM
The Megaplex system uses Flash EPROM to store the system BIOS. The
advantage of Flash EPROM is the EPROM chip does not have to be replaced to
update the BIOS. You can actually reprogram the BIOS, using a ROM file
supplied by American Megatrends.
Programming the Flash EPROM
Step
1
Turn power off. Make sure the computer has a working speaker.
2
Remove the computer cover.
3
Insert the floppy disk with the S770P.ROM file in drive A:.
4
Before DOS boots, press and hold down the <Ctrl> and <Home>
keys to reprogram the Flash EPROM-based AMIBIOS. The
bootblock code immediately reads the A: drive, looking for the
new BIOS information.
5
When the flash ROM has successfully been programmed, the
computer will reboot.
6
Replace the computer cover and reboot.
