2.1.5 ASUS EZ Flash utility
The ASUS EZ Flash 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 utility is built-in the BIOS chip so it is accessible by pressing
<Alt> + <F2> during the Power-On Self-Test (POST).
To update the BIOS using EZ Flash:
1. Visit the ASUS website (www.asus.com) to download the latest BIOS file for
the motherboard.
2. Save the BIOS file to a floppy disk, then restart the system.
3. Press <Alt> + <F2> during POST to display the following.
Insert Disk then press Enter or ESC to continue POST
4. Insert the floppy disk that
contains the BIOS file to the
floppy disk drive then press
<Enter>. The following
screen appears.
5. When the correct BIOS file is found, EZ Flash performs the BIOS update
process and automatically reboots the system when done.
Do not shutdown or reset the system while updating the BIOS to prevent system
boot failure!
