ASUS CrashFree BIOS 3 utility

The ASUS CrashFree BIOS 3 is an auto recovery tool that allows you to restore the BIOS file

when it fails or gets corrupted during the updating process. You can restore a corrupted BIOS

file using the motherboard support DVD or a USB flash drive that contains the updated BIOS

file.

Recovering the BIOS

To recover the BIOS:
1.

Turn on the system.

Insert the support DVD into the optical drive or connect the USB flash drive that

contains the BIOS file to a USB port.

The utility automatically checks the devices for the BIOS file. When found, the utility

reads the BIOS file and enters ASUS EZ Flash 2 utility automatically.

The system requires you to enter BIOS Setup to recover BIOS settings. To ensure

system compatibility and stability, we recommend that you press <F5> to load default

BIOS values.

DO NOT shut down or reset the system while updating the BIOS! Doing so can cause

system boot failure!

Press <Tab> to switch to the

Drive

field.

Press the Up/Down arrow keys to find the USB flash disk that contains the latest BIOS,

and then press <Enter>.

Press <Tab> to switch to the

Folder Info

field.

Press the Up/Down arrow keys to find the BIOS file, and then press <Enter> to perform

the BIOS update process. Reboot the system when the update process is done.

• Before using this utility, rename the BIOS file in the removable device to

P8H61-M-LX2-R2-ASUS-0402.CAP

• The BIOS file in the support DVD may not be the latest version. Download the latest

BIOS file from the ASUS website at

www.asus.com.
