screens. An AMI BIOS identifi cation string is displayed at the left bottom corner of

Flashing the wrong BIOS can cause irreparable damage to the system. In no event
shall the manufacturer be liable for direct, indirect, special, incidental, or consequential
damage arising from a BIOS update. If you have to update the BIOS, do not shut down
or reset the system while the BIOS is being updated to avoid possible boot failure.
