Updating or recovering the BIOS

Lenovo might make changes and enhancements to the BIOS. When updates are released, they are available
as downloadable files on the Lenovo Web site at http://www.lenovo.com/drivers. Instructions for using the
BIOS updates are available in a TXT file that is included with the update files. For most models, you can
download either an update program to create a system-program-update disc or an update program that
can be run from the operating system.
This chapter provides information about updating the BIOS, and how to recover from a BIOS update failure.
