3.1.3 ASUS EZ Flash 2 utility
The ASUS EZ Flash 2 feature allows you to update the BIOS without having to go
through the long process of booting from a floppy disk and using a DOS-based

+ during the Power-On Self Tests (POST).
To update the BIOS using EZ Flash 2
1. Visit the ASUS website (www.asus.com) to download the latest BIOS file for
the motherboard.
2. Save the BIOS file to a floppy disk or a USB flash disk, then restart the
system.
3. You can launch the EZ Flash 2 by two methods.
(1) Insert the floppy disk / USB flash disk that contains the BIOS file to the
floppy disk drive or the USB port.
Press + during POST to display the following.
(2) Enter BIOS setup program. Go to the Tools menu to select EZ Flash2
and press to enable it.
You can switch between drives by pressing before the correct file
is found. Then press .
4. When the correct BIOS file is found, EZ Flash 2 performs the BIOS update
process and automatically reboots the system when done.
• This function can support devices such as a USB flash disk or a floppy disk
with FAT 32/16 format and single partition only.
• DO NOT shut down or reset the system while updating the BIOS to prevent
system boot failure!
