Make a note of the path to the location on your hard drive where the BIOS update will be downloaded. You will need to access this path when you are ready to install the update.

NOTE: If you connect your device to a network, consult the network administrator before installing any software updates, especially system BIOS updates.

BIOS installation procedures vary. Follow any instructions that are displayed on the screen after the download is complete. If no instructions are displayed, follow these steps:

1.Open Windows Explorer by selecting Start > My Computer.

2.Double-click your hard drive designation. The hard drive designation is typically Local Disk (C:).

3.Using the hard drive path you recorded earlier, open the folder on your hard drive that contains the update.

4.Double-click the file that has an .exe extension (for example, filename.exe). The BIOS installation begins.

5.Complete the installation by following the instructions on the screen.

NOTE: After a message on the screen reports a successful installation, you can delete the downloaded file from your hard drive.
