The Update menu

The Update menu allows you to update the motherboard BIOS and the BIOS boot logo with the ASUS designed update utilities.

ASUS Update

The ASUS Update is a utility that allows you to manage, save, and update the motherboard BIOS in Windows® OS. The ASUS Update utility allows you to update the BIOS directly from the Internet, download the latest BIOS file from the Internet, update the BIOS from an updated BIOS file, save the current BIOS file or view the BIOS version information.

Updating the BIOS through the Internet

To update the BIOS through the Internet:

1.From the ASUS Update screen, select Update BIOS from Internet, then click Next.

2.Select the ASUS FTP site nearest you to avoid network traffic.

Tick the two items if you want to enable the BIOS downgradable and Auto-BIOS backup functions.

3.Select the BIOS version that you want to download, then click Next.

When no updated version is detected, a message is displayed informing you that there is no new BIOS file from the BIOS server.

4.Click Yes if you want to change the boot logo, which is the image appearing on screen during the PowerOn Self-Tests (POST). Otherwise, click No.

5.Follow the onscreen instructions to complete the update process.
