Error Message:
To start FMW, change to the “Flash” directory (if you are not already in
it). Type “Awdflash” at the DOS command line and press the <Enter>
key. The following screen will appear:
5.1 The Flash Memory Writer Utility Screen (Award)
Type in the whole file name, e.g. A61AW10.BIN, and confirm
that you want to program the BIOS. The utility will then ‘Blank,’ ‘Erase,’
and then ‘Program’ the flash memory on the mainboard with the new
BIOS file. You should choose “Yes” to save the original system BIOS to a
floppy diskette
before
you program the new BIOS. This leaves you with
a backup of your original BIOS in case you need to re-install it. This is
highly recommended. If you can not sucessfully program the BIOS file
for some reason, re-install your original BIOS from the backup file.
Always reset the CMOS with jumper JP1 after flashing to a new BIOS.
Warning:
If you do not successfully install a complete BIOS file
in the flash memory on the Mainboard, your system may not be able to
boot. If this happens, it will require service by your system vendor.
Follow the requirements and instructions in this section precisely to avoid
such an inconvenience.
