Below are the steps for easy flashing procedures: (applies for Award BIOS ONLY)
1. Download new BIOS upgrade zip
file from AOpen's web site. For example, MX3SPU102.ZIP.
2. Run shareware PKUNZIP (http://www.pkware.com/
) which supports miscellaneous operation systems to extract the binary
BIOS file and the flash utility. Or Winzip (http://www.winzip.com/
) in Windows environment.
3. Save the unzipped file into a bootable floppy disk. For example, MX3SPU102.BIN & MX3SPU102.EXE
4. Reboot the system to DOS mode without loading any memory handler (such as EMM386) or device driver. It needs around
520K free memory spaces.
5. Execute A:> MX3SPU102 and the program will do the rest of it.
DO NOT turn off the power during FLASH PROCESS until you are asked to!!
6. Reboot system and press <Del> to enter BIOS setup
, Choose "Load Setup Defaults", then “Save & Exit Setup”. Done!
Warning: The new BIOS upgrade will permanently replace your
original BIOS's settings and PnP information when flashing. You
may need to reconfigure your BIOS setting and re-install
Win95/Win98 as well as your add-on cards, so that your system
can go back to work as normal.
