This section describes how to use and update the Windows NT ARC firmware.
This firmware is provided on your Alpha SDK and firmware update compact disc
and is required to install and boot Windows NT on the following Alpha
motherboard systems: AlphaPC 164, EB164, AlphaPC 64, EB66+, EB64+, and
EB66.
The Windows NT ARC firmware initializes the system and enables you to install
and boot Windows NT. Depending on the type of motherboard you have, the
firmware resides in either a flash ROM or a UVPROM. Updating to the newest
firmware allows you to take advantage of new functionality.
The following table lists the minimum ARC firmware version required for
running Windows NT. To determine if your firmware requires updating,
compare the minimum firmware version for your system with the version
displayed in the firmware menus.
