read the custom defaults (if you set them). If not, the BIOS uses the factory
default settings.

but want to continue to enter new changes.
FLASH UTILITY
The system BIOS resides on a flash read only memory (ROM) chip in the system. The flash
ROM can be updated with a very simple procedure.
Performing an update is done with a BIOS flash diskette. The diskette contains the latest
version of the BIOS code. You can obtain the flash diskette from NECCSD or, if a modem
is available, the latest BIOS can be downloaded from the NECCSD Bulletin Board Service
(BBS). See “NECCSD Bulletin Board Service” in Chapter 4 for the procedure for logging
onto the BBS to download information.
Update the BIOS from the BIOS flash diskette by using a configuration server such as
Intel’s LANDesk Configuration Manager or proceed as follows.
