To update the software, follow these steps, which are explained in the remainder of this guide:
1. Identify your Slate's model, product category, and series or family. Prepare for a system BIOS
update by identifying the BIOS version currently installed on the Slate.
If your Slate is connected to a network, consult the network administrator before installing any
software updates, especially system BIOS updates.
NOTE: The Slate's system BIOS is stored on the system ROM. The BIOS initializes the
operating system, determines how the Slate will interact with the hardware devices, and
provides for data transfer among hardware devices, including the time and date.
