Custom Splash Screen
During POST, an Intel
®
splash screen is displayed by default. This splash screen can
be augmented with a custom splash screen. The Intel Integrator’s Toolkit version 5
that is available from Intel can be used to create a custom splash screen.
NOTE
If you add a custom splash screen, it will share space with the Intel branded logo.

BIOS Recovery
It is unlikely that anything will interrupt a BIOS update; however, if an interruption
occurs, the BIOS could be damaged. Table 34 lists the drives and media types that
can and cannot be used for BIOS recovery. The BIOS recovery media does not need
to be made bootable.
