Updating the BIOS

The Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) can be updated using the AwardBIOS

Flash Utility. Follow these instructions to update the BIOS using this utility.
1. Download the latest BIOS file from the ASUS web site. Rename the file to

m2nsli.bin

and save it to a floppy disk CD ROM or a USB flash disk in

FAT 16/12 format.

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

BIOS file.

2. Copy the AwardBIOS Flash Utility (awdflash.exe) from the Software folder of

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

BIOS file.

3. Boot the system in DOS mode using the bootable floppy disk, CD-ROM, or

USB flash disk you created earlier.

4. When the A:> appears, replace the bootable floppy disk with the floppy disk

containing the new BIOS

file and the Award BIOS

Flash Utility.
