Card Setup
Introduction
The ABS (Albatron BIOS Security) system provides your system with a recovery BIOS backup when
your onboard BIOS has been damaged beyond system boot capability.
Preparation and Setup
You should prepare a boot floppy disk and have it ready in case of such BIOS failures. Otherwise you
will have to find another computer to make the boot floppy disk from. When you make the disk, you
should visit our website and download the latest version of the BIOS file for your mainboard along with
the AWDFLASH.exe executable, placing both onto the floppy disk.

4. Insert the ABS Card onto the BIOSCN1 header on the mainboard. The ABS Card will fit over the
entire the header and can only be inserted in one direction.
