Updating the BIOS with the ISO Image BIOS Update File

The ISO Image BIOS update allows for the update of an Intel® Desktop Board BIOS to the latest production release regardless of the operating system installed on the computer's hard drive and without the need to remove the BIOS configuration jumper. It requires a blank CD-R, a read/writeable CD drive, and software capable of uncompressing and writing the ISO image file to CD.

The image is bootable and automatically launches a script to update the BIOS via the Iflash utility.

CAUTION

Do not interrupt the process or the system may not function properly.

Follow these instructions to upgrade the BIOS using the ISO Image BIOS file:

1.Download the ISO Image BIOS file.

2.Using software capable of writing an ISO image file to CD, burn the data to a blank CD.

NOTE

Copying the ISO Image BIOS file to CD will not work. The completed CD should contain multiple files and a directory.

3.Insert the CD that was created in the CD-ROM drive of the computer to be upgraded and boot the system.

4.When the "Press ENTER to continue booting from CD-ROM" prompt appears, press the Enter key. The system will boot from the hard drive if no key is pressed within 15 seconds.

5.At the "Welcome to the Intel Desktop Board BIOS Upgrade CD-ROM" page, press any key to confirm the BIOS upgrade operation.

6.Wait for the BIOS upgrade process to complete.

CAUTION

DO NOT POWER DOWN YOUR COMPUTER before the update is complete. The update may take up to 5 minutes.
