Chapter: BIOS Settings Load Fail-Safe Defaults 5.10 Load Fail-Safe Defaults If this option is chosen, the last working setup is loaded from flash. Working means that the setup setting has already led to a successful boot process. At the first setting of the BIOS setup, safe values are loaded which lets the board boot. This status is reached again, if the board is reprogrammed with the corresponding flash-program and the required parameters.
Exit Without Saving Chapter: BIOS update 6 BIOS update If a BIOS update becomes necessary, the program “AWDFLASH.EXE” of the company Phoenix is used for this. It is important, that the program is started from a DOS environment without a virtual memory manager such as for example “EMM386.EXE”.
