You can manage and update the BIOS setup of the DiGiMatrix system
using the ASUS EZ Flash and the ASUS Update utilities. The ASUS EZ
Flash feature allows you to easily update the BIOS without having to go
through the long process of booting from a diskette and using a
DOS-based utility. The EZ Flash is built-in the BIOS firmware so it is
accessible by simply pressing + during the Power-On Self
Tests (POST).
The ASUS Update utility allows you to download an updated BIOS file and
update the BIOS in the Windows
® operating system. See page 3-7 for details.
It is recommended that you save a copy of the motherboard’s original
BIOS to a USB flash disk or floppy disk in case you need to reinstall the
original BIOS later.
