FLASH Utility
The system BIOS resides on a flash read only memory (ROM) chip in
your system. The flash ROM can be updated with a very simple
procedure.
Update the Flash ROM with a BIOS flash diskette. The diskette contains
the latest version of the BIOS code. You can get the diskette from NECC
or download the BIOS from the NECC website. See Chapter 7 for
download information.
Update the BIOS from the BIOS flash diskette as follows:
1.
Write down the BIOS Setup parameters currently set on the system.
2.
Turn off the system.
3.
Put the flash diskette in drive A, and turn on the system.
4.
When the flash upgrade menu appears, choose Update Flash Memory
Area from a file.
