2. Please take the following actions to solve problems caused by power shortage or other
non-preventable malfunctions during BIOS updating that lead to update failure. First, it is
strongly suggested that you format a disk that can boot your computer before you update
your BIOS. If the above mentioned problem occurs during BIOS updating you will be
able to use this disk to automatically execute a BIOS update. The content of the disk
should be the following:
(1) Startup system files (COMMAND.COM, MSDOS.SYS, IO.SYS ...)
(2) AWDFLSH.EXE
(3) The NEWBIOS file which can be download from ABIT web site.
(4) AUTOEXEC.BAT, which has the following content:
A:\AWDFLASH NEWBIOS /PY /SN /CC /CD
For example, to update the BM6 BIOS version to FZ (BM6_FZ.BIN), you need to
type:
A:\AWDFLASH BM6_FZ.BIN /PY /SN /CC /CD
3. If you try to flash a version of BIOS that is for the incorrect motherboard model the
following message will appear:
"The program file's part number does not match with your system!"
