8.4 Core BIOS Download
Before downloading a BIOS, please check the following:
Make a bootable diskette which includes the following files:
» DELEP200.exe
» Phlash16.exe
» core BIOS (SM200_xxx_FLASHABL.ROM)
Rename the SM200_xxx_FLASHABL.ROM file to bios.rom
IMPORTANT: Do not use boot disks created in a Windows operating system. If you do not have an MSDOS 6.22 disk
available, you can download a boot disk from www.bootdisk.com.
Notes:
Disable the EMM386 or other memory managers in the CONFIG.SYS of your bootdisk.
Make sure that the PHLASH16.exe program and the BIOS to be downloaded are in the same path and
directory!
Boot DOS without config.sys and autoexec.batpress F5 while starting the DOS boot.
Is the empty disk space, where the PHLASH16.exe is located, larger than 64kB (for safe storage)?
Is the floppy disk not write-protected?
Start the DOWNLOADING process:
1. Start the system with the bootable diskette. If you do not have a bootable diskette or floppy drive you can
start in DOS mode by pressing the F5 key to disable the autoexec.bat and config.sys.

Warning If you do not run DELEP200.exe, the system will be destroyed during the BIOS upgrade!
