FLASH UTILITY

This chapter briefly discusses Award Flash utility in order to guide you through updating
your old BIOS.  The file name we use to program here is test.bin, and the file name to
save old BIOS is 675.BIN.   Please note that those file names are not absolute.  They are
only examples to let you have a more clear understanding of the updating process.

How to Begin

1. Please type “awdflash” and press the ENTER key to begin the updating process.

2. Once you enter, you will see a main menu displaying:

3. Move the cursor to “File Name to Program:  “

4. Type the program name “test.bin”, and then press the ENTER key.

5. At the bottom of the menu, you will be requested to answer:

“Do You Want to Save BIOS (Y/N)?  “

The following manual is intended to guide you through the process of both “No” and
“Yes” cases respectively.

If  “No”

If you do not wish to save the old BIOS:

1. Please type “N”, and then press the ENTER key.

2. Then you will be requested to answer:

“Are You Sure to Program?  “

3. Answer “N” if you do not want to program, and then it will exit.
