OWNER’S HANDBOOK 7/21

Upgrading the BIOS

If necessary, a BIOS upgrade file can be obtained from your
Mitsubishi Electric supplier. The upgrade file is in fact a self-
extracting archive containing BIOS files, recovery files, text files and
the Intel Flash Memory Update Utility. It will have a name such as,
for example,

10006bi1.exe

.

To upgrade the BIOS

1.

Start BIOS Setup and make a careful note of the existing
configuration settings. This step is essential because you will
need to re-enter these settings manually at the end of the
upgrade procedure.

2.

Use Windows (or MS-DOS) to create a bootable 1.44 Mbyte
diskette (that is, a formatted diskette containing MS-DOS
system files).

3.

Copy the BIOS upgrade file to an empty directory on the
computer’s hard disk

4.

Open an MS-DOS window, change to the directory
containing the BIOS upgrade file , and then execute it. The
contents of the upgrade file are extracted, including

license.txt

,

bioinstr.txt

and

bios.exe

.

5.

Read the software licence agreement contained in

license.txt

and the additional upgrade instructions contained in

bioinstr.txt

.

6.

Insert the bootable diskette you created at Step 2 into the
diskette drive.

7.

In MS-DOS, change to the directory containing

bios.exe

and

at the command prompt type

bios a:

and press <Enter>. The

diskette now holds the new BIOS files, the recovery files, and
the Intel Flash Memory Update utility.

8.

Reboot the computer with the diskette still in the drive. The
Intel Flash Memory Update utility screen appears.

9.

Choose

Update Flash Memory From a File

.

10.

Choose

Update System BIOS

.
