6.Type the 7-digit serial number of the computer you are servicing, then press Enter.

7.Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the flash (BIOS/VPD) update procedure.

Flash recovery boot block jumper

Attention:

If an interruption occurs during a Flash/BIOS upgrade, the BIOS might be left in an unusable state. The Boot Block jumper enables you to restart the system and recover the BIOS.

To perform a Flash/BIOS recovery using the recovery jumper, use the following procedure.

1.Power-off the computer and remove the cover.

2.Move the system board recovery jumper to the clear position. Refer to “Identifying parts on the system board” on page 23 or the label inside the computer for more information.

3.Place the cover back on the system.

4.Place the BIOS flash recovery diskette in the floppy disk drive.

5.Restore power to the system by plugging in the power cord.

6.During the recovery process, there will be a sequence of short beeps. This sequence of beeps will be followed by a single long beep and then silence from the system speaker. During this process there will be no video. After the last long beep, hold the power button in for approximately ten seconds to turn the system off.
