Appendix D:Updating the FLASH ROM BIOS
To update the FLASH ROM BIOS you must:
• Download the BIOS update from the web site.
• Unzip the files onto a bootable Floppy Disk.
• Reboot your computer from the FDD.
• Use the flash tools to update the flash BIOS.
• Restart the computer booting from the HDD.
1. Using your web browser go to
www.clevo.com.tw
2. Choose Download from the menu bar at the top of the page.
3. In the
Download Driver section select the model of your computer (LP300 series) and the driver type (BIOS).
4. Select
GO.
5. Click on LP300xxx.zip. to download the BIOS files
Unzip the file you have just downloaded on to a bootable floppy disk.
(The files you should see on this disk are: PLATFORM.BIN, PHLASH.EXE & LP300.XXX)
With the bootable floppy disk containing the BIOS files in your Floppy Drive, restart the computer.
As the computer boots from the floppy disk:
1. Make sure you are not loading any memory management programs such as HIMEM by holding the F8 key as you
see the message “
Starting MS-DOS”. You will then be prompted to give “Y” or “N” responses to the programs
being loaded by DOS. Choose “N” for any memory management programs.
2. You should now be at the DOS prompt: DISK A:\>
3. If you have chosen to extract the zipped files to the floppy disk (A:) type the following command at the DOS
prompt:
Phlash LP300.XXX
4. Remove the floppy disk from the drive.
Your notebook is now running normally with the updated BIOS.
