mode. The method is :
1. Restart your computer.
2. Press F8 to show the multiboot menu as soon as the “Starting Windows
95...” message appears on the screen.
3. Choose 6 (Command prompt only).
4. Run “AMIFLASH” to write the updated content to your BIOS if
necessary.
Another method is: Create a bootable system floppy diskette by typing “FORMAT
A:/S” from the DOS environment without creating AUTOEXEC.BAT and
CONFIG.SYS, then save the AMIFLASH utility and the BIOS file to the diskette.
Note that you should have a BIOS file ready to update your BIOS chip if you really
want to change the original content of your BIOS.
Notice
: If the flashing of the BIOS content fails to boot-up, we recommend you
to refer to your nearest Technical support site for replacement or have a
qualified technician to do the updates for your system.
