Updating the BIOS

The BIOS is code transmitted onto your system’s microprocessor, or central processing unit
(CPU). As indicated in this chapter, you use the BIOS Setup Utility to configure your system’s
software and hardware features. Use the BIOS Update Diskette, for your specific model, to
update your NEC Versa system BIOS.

Note

You only need to update the BIOS if NEC CSD makes significant improvements or

fixes to the current system BIOS. Your authorized NEC CSD dealer or NEC CSD Support
Services representative can help you determine this.

To update the system BIOS you must:

n

Obtain the BIOS Update

n

Prepare the BIOS Update Diskette

n

Enable the BIOS Flash Switch Setting

n

Perform the BIOS Update

n

Disable the BIOS Flash Setting

Obtaining the BIOS Update

If you are informed that the default BIOS needs an update contact the access the support web
site to obtain a copy of the BIOS update.

Preparing the BIOS Update Diskette

Before using the BIOS update diskette you must make the diskette BIOS flash ready. Refer to
the readme.txt file on the diskette before using the diskette.

Follow these instructions to prepare the BIOS Update Diskette.

1.

Scan your hard drive for any computer viruses.

2.

Unlock the write protect notch on the diskette, if necessary.

3.

Insert the diskette into the file bay drive.

4.

Type a:install (where a: is the floppy diskette drive) at the DOS prompt and follow the on-
screen instructions.

Install.bat copies the DOS system files from your hard drive onto the BIOS Update Diskette
to make it BIOS flash ready.

The system prompts you when the process is complete.

5.

Scan the BIOS Update Diskette for computer viruses.

The diskette is ready for use.

6.

Follow the instructions later in this chapter, “Enabling the BIOS Flash Switch.”

Enabling the BIOS Flash Switch

Before performing the BIOS update, be sure to enable the BIOS flash switch. Set switch 5 to
“ON” before performing the BIOS update.
