5.1.1.3Perfoming a BIOS Recovery Boot

In the event of BIOS corruption, the following procedure may be used to perform a BIOS Recovery.

1.Obtain the BIOS update file package from Intel’s iBL or http://support.intel.com web site.

2.A file called “crisis.zip” is one of the files included with each STL2 BIOSrelease file package. Unzip the “crisis.zip” file to a directory on your hard drive.

3.Obtain a blank formatted floppy diskette (the floppy diskette should not be a bootable DOS diskette). Insert the blank formatted floppy diskette in the floppy drive.

4.From a MS-DOS prompt or from the MS-DOS prompt window, run the “crisdisk.bat” file from the directory you created on your hard drive. Follow the instructions on the screen to create the BIOS recovery floppy diskette.

5.Power off the STL2 system, unplug the power cord, and remove the chassis panel.

6.Remove the spare jumper from pins 11-12 on jumper block 1J15.

7.Reinstall the jumper on pins 9-10 (BIOS Recovery) of jumper block 1J15.

8.Insert the BIOS recovery floppy diskette into the diskette drive.

9.Reinstall the chassis panel, plug in the power cord(s), and power on the system.

10.The screen will remain blank while the BIOS Recovery is performed. A number of beeps will occur during the BIOS update. The floppy drive access light will not turn off when the BIOS recovery is completed. Allow four minutes for the BIOS recovery to complete. If a POST card is installed in a PCI slot during the BIOS recovery, you can tell that the BIOS recovery is complete when code “EC” is displayed. When the BIOS Recovery is complete, it is safe to power off the system.

11.Power off the system, unplug the power cord(s), and remove the chassis panel.

12.Remove the BIOS Recovery jumper from pins 9-10 and store the jumper on pins 11-12.

13.Replace the chassis panel, plug in the power cord(s), and power on the system.

14.Perform a CMOS clear following the BIOS recovery.
