7.1.3 Upgrading AlphaBIOS
As new versions of Windows NT are released, it might be necessary to upgrade AlphaBIOS
to the latest version. Additionally, as improvements are made to AlphaBIOS, it
might be desirable to upgrade to take advantage of new features.
To upgrade from an earlier version of AlphaBIOS:
1. Insert the diskette or CD-ROM containing the AlphaBIOS upgrade.
2. Run the AlphaBIOS Setup program by restarting your system and pressing F2
when the boot screen is displayed.
3. In the main AlphaBIOS Setup screen, select Upgrade AlphaBIOS and press
Enter.
This menu option is used to upgrade to later versions of AlphaBIOS. When you
choose this option, the existing AlphaBIOS searches for an executable
AlphaBIOS update file; first on CD-ROM, then on diskette. Once the update file
has been found, AlphaBIOS executes it, and the firmware is upgraded.
4. After the upgrade is complete, the system either resets automatically or prompts
you to reset the system.
