cardwiz directory, type cardwiz. Press Enter.
BIOS Update Utility (BUU)
The BIOS Update utility updates the ROM BIOS version of the system. This software
utility updates the Flash ROM installed on the system board. The utility identifies and
saves the currently installed BIOS version before installing the new version.
To receive the latest BUU diskette (in the U.S. only), call the Technical Support Center at
(800) 388-8888 or download the BUU by logging onto NEC's Electronic Bulletin Board
System (BBS) and perform the procedures described in the following subsections.
To use the BIOS Update utility, the system configuration must be set to 640 KB of base
memory with the programming voltage enabled.
Precautions
The BIOS Update utility diskette saves the old BIOS version. Make sure the diskette is not
write-protected. If attempting to use a diskette that has updated another unit, a message
warns that the original BIOS may not be restored. If updating more than one system, first
make a copy of the original diskette for each system before using the diskette.
NOTE: Most applications, such as
communications software, are not PCMCIA
aware. Make sure the card is inserted and ready
before using an application.
