3 Updating the BIOS The BIOS Setup program can be used to view and change the BIOS settings for the computer. You can access the BIOS Setup program by pressing the key after the Power-On Self-Test (POST) memory test begins and before the operating system boot begins. This chapter tells you how to update the BIOS by either using the Intel Express BIOS Update utility or the Iflash Memory Update utility, and how to recover the BIOS if an update fails.
Intel Desktop Board D945GSEJT Product Guide Updating the BIOS with the Iflash Memory Update Utility You can use the information in this section to update the BIOS using the Iflash Memory Update Utility. Obtaining the BIOS Update File You can update to a new version of the BIOS by using the Iflash BIOS update file. The Iflash BIOS update file is a compressed file that contains the files you need to update the BIOS.
Updating the BIOS Recovering the BIOS It is unlikely that anything will interrupt a BIOS update; however, if an interruption occurs, the BIOS could be damaged. Table 24 lists the drives and media types that can and cannot be used for BIOS recovery. The BIOS recovery media does not have to be bootable. Table 24.
