ASUS EZ Flash 2 utility

The ASUS EZ Flash 2 feature allows you to update the BIOS without having to go through
the long process of booting from a floppy disk and using a DOS-based utility. The EZ Flash 2
utility is built in the BIOS chip so it is accessible by pressing <Alt> + <F2> during the Power-
On Self Tests (POST).
To update the BIOS using EZ Flash 2:
1. Visit the ASUS website at www.asus.com to download the latest BIOS file for this
motherboard.
2. Save the BIOS file to a floppy disk or a USB flash disk, then restart the system.
3. You can launch the EZ Flash 2 in two ways:
(1) Insert the floppy disk / USB flash disk that contains the BIOS file to the floppy disk
drive or the USB port.
Press <Alt> + <F2> during POST to display the following.

and automatically reboots the system when done.
