Intel Desktop Board DQ57TM Product Guide

Updating the BIOS with the ISO Image BIOS Update File or the Iflash Memory Update Utility

You can use the information in this section to update the BIOS using either the Iflash Memory Update Utility or the ISO Image BIOS update file.

Obtaining the BIOS Update File

You can update to a new version of the BIOS by using the ISO Image BIOS update file (recommended), or Iflash BIOS update file.

The ISO Image BIOS update file is a standardized image of a bootable CD-ROM that can be used to create a bootable CD that will update the BIOS.

The Iflash BIOS update file is a compressed file that contains the files you need to update the BIOS. The Iflash BIOS update file contains:

•New BIOS file (including the Intel® Management Engine Firmware Image)

•Intel® Integrator Toolkit Configuration File (optional)

•Intel Flash Memory Update Utility

You can obtain either of these files through your computer supplier or by navigating to the Intel Desktop Board DQ57TM page on the Intel World Wide Web site at:

http://support.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop

Navigate to the DQ57TM page, click “Latest BIOS and driver updates,” select “BIOS Update [TMIBX10H.86A],” and download the ISO Image BIOS Update or Iflash BIOS Update utility file.
