By flashing your motherboard, you agree to accept the possibility of BIOS flash failure. If you motherboard is working and is
stable, and there are no major bugs that were fixed by a latter BIOS revision, we recommend that you DO NOT try to upgrade
your BIOS.
By doing so, you are taking a risk of BIOS flash failure. If you indeed intent on upgrading, PLEASE BE SURE to use the right
BIOS revision for the right motherboard model.
AOpen Easy Flash is a little different than traditional flash method. The BIOS
binary file and flash routine are linked together
and you simply run a single commend to complete the flash process.
Caution: AOpen Easy Flash BIOS programs are designed to be
compatible with the Award BIOS. At the date of this note, AOpen
Easy Flash BIOS programs are not available for AMI BIOS. AMI
BIOS appears mostly only on old 486 boards and some early
Pentium boards. Please be sure to view the README compressed
inside the BIOS package before upgrading, and follow upgrade
instructions carefully. This will minimize the chance of flash
failures.
