BIOS Flash Procedure yte @BIOS Program to flash BIOS. Method 1: We use GA-7VTX motherboard and Flash841 BIOS flash utility as example. Please flash the BIOS according to the following procedures if you are now under the DOS mode. Flash BIOS Procedure: STEP 1: (1) Please make sure your system has installed the extraction utility such as winzip or pkunzip.
Page 63 (2) Select the "Quick (erase)" for Format Type, and pick both "Display summary when finished" and "Copy system files", after that press "Start". That will format the floppy and transfer the needed system files to it. Beware: This procedure will erase all the prior data on that floppy, so please proceed accordingly.
Page 64 STEP 3: Download BIOS and BIOS utility program. (1) Please go to Gigabyte website http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/index.html, and click "Support". (2) From Support zone, click the "Motherboards BIOS & Drivers". GA-8PE667 Ultra/Pro Motherboard - 6 0 -...
Page 65 (3) We use GA-7VTX motherboard as example. Please select GA-7VTX by Model or Chipset optional menu to obtain BIOS flash files. (4) Select an appropriate BIOS version (For example: F4), and click to download the file. It will pop up a file download screen, then select the "Open this file from its current location" and press "OK".
Page 66 (5) At this time the screen shows the following picture, please click "Extract" button to unzip the files. (6) Please extract the download files into the clean bootable floppy disk A mentioned in STEP 2, and press "Extract". GA-8PE667 Ultra/Pro Motherboard - 6 2 -...
Page 67 STEP 4: Make sure the system will boot from the floppy disk. (1) Insert the floppy disk (contains bootable program and unzip file) into the floppy drive A. Then, restart the system. The system will boot from the floppy disk. Please press <DEL> key to enter BIOS setup main menu when system is boot up.
Page 68 (3) Press "Enter" to enter "BIOS FEATURES SETUP" menu. Use the arrows to highlight the item "1st Boot Device", and then use the "Page Up" or "Page Down" keys to select "Floppy". AMIBIOS SETUP - B I O S F E ATURES SETUP ( C ) 2 0 0 1 A m e r i c a n M e g a t r e n d s , I n c .

Page 70 (3) It will pop up a screen and asks "Are you sure to flash the BIOS?" Press [Enter] to continue theprocedure, or press [ESC] to quit. Beware: Please do not turn off the system while you are upgrading BIOS. It will render your BIOS corrupted and system totally inoperative.
Page 71 STEP 6: Load BIOS defaults. Normally the system redetects all devices after BIOS has been upgraded. Therefore, we highly recommend reloading the BIOS defaults after BIOS has been upgraded. This important step resets everything after the flash. (1) Take out the floppy diskette from floppy drive, and then restart the system. The boot up screen will indicate your motherboard model and current BIOS version.
Page 72 (3) Use the arrows to highlight the item "SAVE & EXIT SETUP" and press "Enter". System will ask "SAVE to CMOS and EXIT (Y/N)?" Press "Y" and "Enter" keys to confirm. Now the system will reboot automatically, the new BIOS setting will be taken effect next boot-up.

Page 75 Halt On BIOS Defects : Disabled(Default), Enabled If the BIOS occurs a checksum error or the Main BIOS occurs a WIDE RANGE PROTECTION error and Halt On BIOS Defects set to Enable, the PC will show messages on the boot screen, and the system will pause and wait for the user’s instruction.
Page 76 BIOS) DualBIOS Technology FAQ GIGABYTE Technology is pleased to introduce DualBIOS technology, a hot spare for your system BIOS. This newest “Value-added” feature, in a long series of innovations from GIGABYTE, is available on GA-6OXET Series motherboard. Future GIGABYTE motherboards will also incorporate this innovation.
Page 77 I. Q: What is DualBIOS technology? Answer: DualBIOS technology is a patented technology from Giga-Byte Technology. The concept of this technology is based on the redundancy and fault tolerance theory. DualBIOS technology simply means there are two system BIOSes (ROM) integrated onto the motherboard. One is a main BIOS, and the other is a backup BIOS.
Page 78 III. Q: How does DualBIOS technology work? Answer: DualBIOS technology provides a wide range of protection during the boot up procedure. It protects your BIOS during system POST, ESCD update, and even all the way to PNP detection/assignment. DualBIOS provides automatic recovery for the BIOS. When the first BIOS used during boot up does not complete or if a BIOS checksum error occurs, boot-up is still possible.
Page 79 utility may be entered to manually change the boot sequence to boot from the backup BIOS. 2. During or after a BIOS upgrade, if DualBIOS detects that the main BIOS is corrupt, the backup BIOS will take over the boot-up process automatically. Moreover, it will verify the main and backup BIOS checksums when booting-up.

Moreover, if one well-performed system speed has been tested in EasyTune 4, user can "Save" this setting and "Load" it in next time. Obviously, Gigabyte EasyTune 4 has already turned the "Overclock" technology toward to a newer generation. This wonderful software is now free bundled in Gigabyte motherboard attached in driver CD.
