HOW TO FLASH THE BIOS

 First download BIOS data and extract to your hard drive. Copy the files over to a floppy disk.  If you do not have a built-in floppy disk drive, you may use a USB floppy disk drive, or you can also create a bootable CD such as Bart's Recovery CD and copy the BIOS utility and BIOS ROM file onto the CD.

A. Under MS-DOS

1.  UPDATING SYSTEM BIOS

Make sure the AC adapter is connected to your notebook before you run this utility.

2-2.           Copy following files into Boot Disk:

                f82734.exe and   XXXXX.rom (System BIOS File)

 3-3.           Boot from the Boot Disk.  If you do not have a USB floppy drive, you can create a bootable CD using Nero or Easy CD Creator on a different computer.  At MS-DOS prompt  A:\> type:
