Appendix C BIOS Flashing User Instructions
When your motherboard needs to be upgraded with new features or to fix some
compatibility problems of a BIOS, you will need to use this BIOS flash utility.
This utility is provided by Award Software, and it’s easy to flash by yourself. But
you have to read all the information within this section before flashing.
Before you can flash the BIOS you need to first go into the
pure DOS
environment
by rebooting your system and going directly into DOS. Basically,
there are two ways to flash your BIOS. One is to directly type the full line
commands that are described in this section. The utility will then flash your BIOS.
When you finish the flash operation, you will see the screen as in Figure C-2.
The other method is to just type awdflash then press enter, the Flash Memory
Writer V6.66 screen will show up, please refer to Figure C-1. You need to type
“NEWBIOS” (the file name or you can use another name if you choose) into the
“File Name to Program”, then press enter. When you finish the flash operation,
you will see the screen as in Figure C-2.
