The Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) can be updated using the AwardBIOS
Flash Utility. Follow these instructions to update the BIOS using this utility.

Save only the updated BIOS file in the floppy disk to avoid loading the wrong
BIOS file.

the support CD to the floppy disk, CD ROM or a USB flash disk with the latest
