This guide book describes the step-by-step instructions of installing device drivers and utilities necessary for the P6300

Series Notebook PC to work with different operating systems.

THE PREPARATION

To Flash the BIOS

Newer version of BIOS includes feature and bug fix of all the previous version. Unless specified in description, you

just need to download latest BIOS image file from ASUS web site at http:\\www.asus.com.tw and upgrade to the latest

version. These BIOS image files are customized for ASUS P6300 Series Notebook PC only. You can not and should

not use them on other vendor's products.

• Make a DOS boot diskette without AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files. Copy the

PHLASH.EXE, PLATFORM.BIN, and unzipped BIOS image(ex.0404.ROM) files to this

diskette.

• Turn the system off, then boot the system using the boot diskette you just created. Then type

PHLASH/MODE=3 0404.ROM(say if you wanna to update to rev. 0404) and press [ENTER].

• It will now update the flash BIOS. If flash memory has been successfully programmed, it will

ask you to press any key to restart the system. Please press any key to restart your system. If

system cannot restart itself, power off the system, then restart it.

• Assuming that you have successfully flashed the BIOS. After the system reboots, hit [F2] to

enter the CMOS Setup. At this point, go to "Load Setup Defaults" field at "Exit" sub-menu.

Then save and exit Setup. If screen resolution has shrunk after you restart P6300, please reset

your display resolution to 1024*768 and color to 16 bit.
