Recovering from a POST/BIOS update failure

Attention

If an interruption occurs during a POST/BIOS update (flash update), the computer might not restart correctly. If this occurs, perform the following procedure commonly called Boot-block Recovery.

Note: If your computer has no internal diskette drive, an optional USB diskette drive must be connected to use the BIOS flash diskette.

1.Turn off the computer and any attached devices, such as printers, monitors, and external drives.

2.Unplug all power cords from electrical outlets, and open the computer cover. See “Opening the cover” on page 68.

3.Locate the Clear CMOS/Recovery jumper on the system board. See “System board locations” on page 68.

4.Remove any cables that impede access to the Clear CMOS/Recovery jumper.

5.Move the jumper from the standard position (pins 1 and 2) to pins 2 and 3.

6.Insert the POST/BIOS update (flash) diskette in the diskette drive.

7.Close the computer cover and reconnect any cables that were disconnected.

8.Reconnect the power cords for the computer and monitor to electrical outlets.

9.Turn on the computer and the monitor.

10.The recovery session will take two to three minutes. During this time, you will hear a series of beeps. After the update session is completed, the series of beeps ends. There will be no video, and the system will automatically turn off.

11.Open the computer cover, and move the Clear CMOS/Recovery jumper back to the original positions (pins 1 and 2).

12.Remove the POST/BIOS flash diskette from the diskette drive.

13.Close the computer cover and reconnect any cables that were disconnected.
