ASRock Rack Instant Flash is a BIOS flash utility embedded in Flash ROM. This con-
venient BIOS update tool allows you to update system BIOS without entering operat-
ing systems first like MS-DOS or Windows

®

. With this utility, you can press the <F6> 

key during the POST or the <F2> key to enter into the BIOS setup menu to access 
ASRock Rack Instant Flash. Just launch this tool and save the new BIOS file to your 
USB flash drive, floppy disk or hard drive, then you can update your BIOS only in a 
few clicks without preparing an additional floppy diskette or other complicated flash 
utility. Please be noted that the USB flash drive or hard drive must use FAT32/16/12 
file system.
