Upgrading to the Latest BIOS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.  Be sure you have downloaded the correct BIOS file.

2.  Note the settings of the SETUP parameters.  Enter SETUP by hitting
    the F2 key during boot up.  Write down the settings for each of
    parameters.  At the end of the BIOS update process you should set the
    parameters to default values by hitting the F9 key, and then
    re-enter these values you have written down.

3.  Follow the instructions (above) for creating a bootable floppy to
    create a bootable floppy diskette.

4.  Insert the bootable floppy into drive a:.

5.  Extract the contents of the BIOS file you downloaded, into a
    temporary directory.  You simply type the filename (with the
    extension), for example "10005AZ0.012". Three new files will be created:
    LICENSE.TXT, BIOINSTR.TXT (this file), and BIOS.EXE.

6.  Extract the contents of the BIOS.EXE file onto the bootable floppy.
    Simply type the filename (with or without the extension) followed by a:,
    for example "BIOS.EXE A:".

7.  Place the bootable floppy containing the BIOS into drive a: of the
    system that you want to upgrade and boot the system while the floppy
    diskette is in the drive.

8.  At this point you have a choice.  Press 1 and ENTER to automatically update
    the system BIOS.  This will update the system BIOS and reset the system.
    Continue at step 15.
    Press 2 and ENTER to manually update the system BIOS.  Follow steps 9 to 14.

14. Once the BIOS has been successfully loaded, remove the floppy
    diskette from the drive.  Hit ENTER at the prompt to reboot the
    system.

15. Check to make sure the BIOS version is the new version as the system
    reboots.

16. Enter Setup by pressing the F2 key during boot up.  Once in Setup,
    press the F9 to set the parameters back to default values.
    Re-enter the values you wrote down at the beginning of this process.
    If you do not set the CMOS values back to defaults using the F9
    key, the system may function erratically.

Note: you may encounter a CMOS Checksum error or other problem after
reboot.  Try shutting down the system and booting up again.  CMOS
checksum errors require that you enter Setup, check your settings, save
your settings, and exit Setup.
