Reprogramming the BIOS
Use the Flash Programming Utility (FPU) to reprogram the system board’s flash EPROM with
a new BIOS. When run, the FPU first looks on the diskette in the floppy disk drive for a valid
BIOS. The FPU is an MS-DOS utility that will not run in the Windows NT environment. Use
the SYSUTIL diskette delivered with your system to boot the system into MS-DOS. The
system must be set to boot from the floppy disk drive (normally drive A) to use these utilities.
If necessary, refer to “Changing the System Boot Sequence” later in this chapter.
Reprogramming the BIOS erases all the parameter settings in the BIOS. If you customized
any of the BIOS parameters, record them before installing the BIOS.
Your system may have installed ISA option boards or PC Card devices that require specific
system resources such as interrupts (IRQs) or input/output (I/O) port addresses.
Reprogramming the BIOS erases the resource assignments for the ISA boards and PC Card
devices. After reprogramming the BIOS, you must run the System Configuration Utility
(SCU) to reassign those resources. Refer to “Assigning System Resources for Option Boards”
later in this chapter.
To reprogram the flash EPROM:
1. Connect to the Intergraph Bulletin Board Service (IBBS) via modem. Refer to the
Preface for instructions.
2. From the TOP menu, go to Intergraph Product Centers, Systems and Networking, File
Libraries, and Delivered Drivers; then select the appropriate operating system and
hardware platform.
3. Choose Find File to search for the
FLASHPROG
product; then download it to your system.

5. Insert a blank floppy diskette into the floppy disk drive.
6. At the MS-DOS command prompt, change to the directory containing the extracted files,
if they are not located in the current directory.
