Appendix III: ABS (Albatron BIOS Security) Card Setup

Introduction

The ABS (Albatron BIOS Security) system provides your system with a recovery BIOS backup when your onboard BIOS has been damaged beyond system boot capability.

Preparation and Setup

You should prepare a boot floppy disk and have it ready in case of such BIOS failures. Otherwise you will have to find another computer to make the boot floppy disk from. When you make the disk, you should visit our website and download the latest version of the BIOS file for your mainboard along with the AWDFLASH.exe executable, placing both onto the floppy disk.

Onoboard BIOS Recovery Procedures

1.Make sure your system is turned off.

2.Set the jumper cap on the ABS_JP1 header located on the ABS Card to the “Rescue BIOS” position (figure 1).

3.Remove the jumper caps (on pins 1-2, pins 3-4) from the mainboard BIOSCN1 header (figure 2).

4.Insert the ABS Card onto the BIOSCN1 header on the mainboard. The ABS will fit over the entire BIOSCN1 header and can only be inserted in one direction.
