This section tells you how to update BIOS using the Q-Flash utility. As described in the "Before you
begin" section above, you must prepare a floppy disk having the BIOS file for your motherboard and
insert it to your computer. If you have already put the floppy disk into your system and have entered
the Q-Flash utility, please follow the steps below to flash BIOS.
Steps:
1. Press arrow buttons on your keyboard to move the light bar to "Update BIOS from Floppy" item in
the Q-Flash menu and press Enter button.
Later, you will see a box pop up showing the BIOS files you previously downloaded to the floppy
disk.
If you want to save the current BIOS for backup purpose, you can begin Step 1 with "Save
BIOS to Floppy" item.
2. Move to the BIOS file you want to flash and press Enter.
In this example, we only download one BIOS file to the floppy disk so only one BIOS file,
8GE800.F4, is listed.
Please confirm again you have the correct BIOS file for your motherboard.
