3 Updating the BIOS The BIOS Setup program can be used to view and change the BIOS settings for the computer. You can access the BIOS Setup program by pressing the key after the Power-On Self-Test (POST) memory test begins and before the operating system boot begins. This chapter tells you how to update the BIOS by either using the Intel Express BIOS Update utility or the Iflash Memory Update utility, and how to recover the BIOS if an update fails.
Intel Desktop Board D525MW Product Guide Updating the BIOS with the Iflash Memory Update Utility You can use the information in this section to update the BIOS using the Iflash Memory Update Utility. Obtaining the BIOS Update File You can update to a new version of the BIOS by using the Iflash BIOS update file. The Iflash BIOS update file is a compressed file that contains the files you need to update the BIOS.
Updating the BIOS Recovering the BIOS It is unlikely that anything will interrupt a BIOS update; however, if an interruption occurs, the BIOS could be damaged. Table 14 lists the drives and media types that can and cannot be used for BIOS recovery. The BIOS recovery media does not have to be bootable. Table 14.

A Board Status and Error Messages This appendix describes status and error messages generated by the Desktop Board’s BIOS. The BIOS indicates these error messages with front-panel Power LED blink codes, speaker beep codes, and by displaying text on the video monitor. BIOS Beep Codes The BIOS uses audible beep codes to signal status messages and error messages indicating recoverable errors that occur during the POST. The beep codes are listed in Table 15.
Intel Desktop Board D525MW Product Guide BIOS Front-panel Power LED Blink Codes The BIOS also blinks the front-panel power LED to signal status messages and error messages indicating certain recoverable errors that occur during the POST. The blink codes are listed in Table 16. Table 16. BIOS Front-panel Power LED Blink Codes Type Pattern Note BIOS update in progress Off when the update begins, then on for 0.5 second, and then off for 0.5 second. The pattern repeats until the BIOS update is complete.
