BIOS Update Procedure
Sometimes, you may need to update your BIOS to the latest version. For flexibility
and ease of use, Award Flash Utility updates your BIOS through software, without the
need to remove chassis cover or change any hardware.
Follow the procedure below when you need to update your BIOS:
1. First, you need to have the latest BIOS file and Award Flash Utility (Program name:
AWDFlash.exe) from the manufacturer's website. If necessary, contact your local
dealer for help.
2. Download these two files into your hard disk. It is strongly recommended to put
these into the same directory (i.e.: C:\utility\flash\).
3. If you are using Windows ME, perform shutdown operations and restart your
computer in MS-DOS mode or command prompt.
4. Change the directory to the location where the BIOS file and Utility are placed. For
example, if the files are located in C:\utility\flash\*.*, type the following command in
DOS prompt:
cd c:\utility\flash
5. Press <Enter> key then, type:
AWDFlash <filename of the BIOS file>
6. Press <Enter> key.
7. Your BIOS is now updated. Reboot the system to have the new BIOS executed.
