F Upload New Firmware
Step 1. Insert the disk containing the new firmware into the appropriate
disk drive on your computer.
NOTE:
This example shows
uploading new firmware directly from
the floppy disk. For a faster upload
(and less potential for file corruption),
copy the new firmware to your local
hard drive and upload the new
firmware from your hard drive.
Some firmware is in self-extracting compressed files (files with
.exe extensions). If you have firmware in such files, from
Windows Explorer double-click on the file you want and select
a directory on your local hard drive where you want to access
the uncompressed files. Be sure that these uncompressed files
have an .s19 extension.
