ASUS CrashFree BIOS 3 utility

The ASUS CrashFree BIOS 3 is an auto recovery tool that allows you to restore the BIOS file

when it fails or gets corrupted during the updating process. You can restore a corrupted BIOS

file using the motherboard support DVD or a USB flash drive that contains the updated BIOS

file.

The BIOS file in the support DVD may not be the latest version. Download the latest BIOS

file from the ASUS website at www.asus.com.
