Chapter 2: BIOS Setup

5. To run AFLASH, at the DOS prompt type:

A:\AFLASH

then press

If the word “unknown” appears after Flash Memory, the memory chip is either
not programmable or is not supported by the ACPI BIOS and therefore, cannot
be programmed by the Flash Memory Writer utility.

6. Select 1. Save Current BIOS to File from the Main menu and press .

The Save Current BIOS To File screen appears.

7. When asked to enter a filename to save, type a filename and the path. For

example,

A:\XXX-XX.XXX

, then press .

4. Reboot the computer from the floppy disk.

BIOS setup must specify “Floppy” as the first item in the boot sequence.

The AFLASH.EXE utility works only in DOS mode. It does not work with
certain memory drivers that may be loaded when you boot from the hard
drive. It is recommended that you reboot using a floppy disk.

DO NOT copy AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS to the disk.
