Use a CD to update your BIOS.
The BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) is a built-in program that comes with a computer's motherboard. You can use the BIOS to configure almost any hardware component installed on your computer. Update the BIOS by creating a BIOS update CD and using it with the CD/DVD drive on your computer.
Instructions
1. Download the BIOS update file from your motherboard manufacturer's website. Also, download the Caldera DR-DOS ISO image (see Resources). This is a program similar to MS-DOS that can be used to back up the BIOS.
2. Download and install UltraISO (see Resources). After installing, open UltraISO. Click the "Open File" icon, select the Caldera DR-DOS ISO image and click "OK." Use the pane at the bottom of the UltraISO window to go to the location where you saved the BIOS update file. Drag the update file into the center pane. Click "Save" to create a new image containing both the BIOS update file and the Caldera DR-DOS boot files.
3. Download and install Nero. Open Nero and select the "CD-ROM (Boot)" option when prompted. Click on the radio button next to "Image File" and select the image file that you created using UltraISO. Insert a blank CD, click "New" and then click "Burn" to create a BIOS update CD.
4. Restart your computer and press the "F10" key. Select your CD/DVD drive and press "Enter" to boot from it. Follow the onscreen instructions to update the BIOS on your computer.
