AOpen MX6B EZ
The following sections are not a must to install this motherboard, they are list here for your
reference.
Eliminate "?" Marks in Win95
Win95 can not recognize this chipset, because it was released before Intel 440ZX/BX. You can run
AOchip.exe from AOpen Bonus Pack to eliminate the "?" marks.
installing Bus Master IDE Driver
There is no need to install Bus Master IDE driver to support Ultra DMA/33 hard disk. If you need
this driver, you can find it in the AOpen Bonus Pack CD disc or our web. Run setup.exe directly to
install this program.
Warning: Installing this Bus Master IDE driver may cause Suspend to Hard Drive failure.
How to Upgrade BIOS?
AOpen Easy Flash is more user friendly than traditional flash method. The BIOS binary file and
flash routine are combined together and you simply run a single file to complete the flash process.
1. Get new BIOS upgrade program from AOpen's web site. For example, 6BEZ200.EXE. It is
recommended to save it to a bootable DOS floppy diskette for error recovery.
2.
Reboot the system to DOS mode without loading any memory handler (such as EMM386) or
device driver. It needs around 520K free memory space.
3.
Execute A:> 6BEZ200
DO NOT turn off the power during FLASH PROCESS.
4.
Reboot the system by turn off the power after flash is completed.
5. Reload the "BIOS SETUP DEFAULT' and reconfigure other items as previous set. Save & Exit.
Done!
Note: The upgrade of new BIOS will permanently replace your original BIOS content after flashing.
The original BIOS setting and Win95/Win98 PnP information will be refreshed and you probably
need to re-configure your system.
Note: If you encounter BIOS flash fail, use PCI VGA card to check if it can be boot from floppy and
flash again.
