The BIN format is a type of disc image file often used for software distribution of programs intended for the Windows operating system. Each BIN file (along with the similar ISO file format) holds all files needed to successfully burn a CD or DVD. Some BIOS manufacturers even issue their BIOS firmware updates in BIN or ISO format, which you can then simply burn to a CD and use to quickly update your BIOS.
Instructions
1. Put a blank CD into your computer's burner. Close out of the "Autoplay" window that opens in Windows 7 automatically.
2. Right-click on your BIN BIOS update file. Click "Burn Disc Image."
3. Select your burner from the "Disc Burner" menu in the window now open on your monitor. Click "Burn" to burn your BIN BIOS upgrade file to the CD.
4. Restart your computer with the newly burned CD still in the drive. Your computer will boot off of the CD, launching the BIOS upgrade utility.
5. Tap the "Y" keyboard key to update your BIOS' firmware. Do not restart or turn off your computer while this process is taking place. When the process is finished, your computer will automatically restart on its own. Take the CD out of your burner and enjoy your newly updated BIOS.
