Using Your Mainboard – 2.12
Flashing The BIOS
This mainboard uses the Award BIOS. The BIOS is stored on
a programmable flash memory chip on the mainboard. Updates
to the BIOS can be installed by installing a new BIOS file on the
flash chip, which replaces the existing one. You do this using
software that comes on the Support Disk. There is an explana-
tion of how to install a BIOS update in a ‘readme’ text file in-
cluded with the program.
Bus Master Drivers
This mainboard comes with software drivers, for various Op-
erating Systems, that enable the PCI controller to operate in ‘Bus
Master’ mode. The drivers are on the Support Disk. The included
‘readme’ file has information on the drivers and installation in-
formation.
