Using “AMIFLASH.EXE” to update the BIOS

Update the BIOS using the AMIFLASH.EXE utility in DOS environment.

1. Visit the IWILL website (

http://www.iwill.net

) to download the latest BIOS file for your

motherboard. Save the BIOS file to a bootable floppy disk.

2. At the DOS prompt, type the command line:

AMIFLASH /

where “filename” means the latest (or original) BIOS file that you copied to the bootable floppy

disk. The screen displays the status of the update process.

The BIOS information on the screen is for reference only. What you see on your screen

may not be exactly the same as shown.

DO NOT shutdown or reset the system while updating the BIOS! Doing so may cause

system boot failure!

3. When the BIOS update process is complete, the utility returns to the DOS prompt.
