FLASH Utility

The system BIOS resides on a flash read only memory
(ROM) chip in your system. The flash ROM can be updated
using the following procedure. Before starting the BIOS
update, NEC recommends that you first contact NEC CSD
for assistance (see Chapter 6 for contact information).
Update the Flash ROM with a BIOS flash diskette. The
diskette contains the latest version of the BIOS code. You can
get the diskette from NEC CSD or download the BIOS from
the NEC CSD website or Bulletin Board System (BBS). See
Chapter 6 for download, website, and bulletin board system
information.
Update the BIOS from the BIOS flash diskette as follows.
1. Write down the BIOS Setup parameters currently set on
your system.
2. Turn off the system.
3. Put the flash diskette in drive A, and turn on the system.
4. When the flash upgrade menu appears, choose
Flash Memory Area from a file
5. When the menu asks you to enter a path/filename, use the
arrow keys to select the ".bio" file and press
6. The utility asks for a confirmation that you want to load
the new flash into memory. Select

7. After the upgrade completes, remove the diskette.
8. Reboot the system and start the Setup program. Press
to reset the BIOS defaults. Use the recorded Setup
selections you made at the beginning of this procedure to
set the parameters.
