Creating a Bootable Diskette

Each update diskette created must be made bootable with ROM-DOS

Ver. 6.22 or MS-DOS Ver. 6.22.

Note: It is recommended that the target system be booted with

the Resource CD that accompanied the product. However, the

process for making the diskettes is the same for all the compatible

versions of DOS. ROM-DOS Ver. 6.22 is included on the Resource

CD.

1 Insert and boot to the Resource CD.

2 Exit from the menu to a DOS prompt.

3 Insert a diskette into the floppy drive.

4 At the DOS prompt, for an unformatted diskette, type:

format a:/s

or, for a formatted diskette, type:

sys a:

5 Press Enter.

Software Update Package

1 Download the software update.

2 Print, review, and follow the instruction file (it supercedes any

other instructions).

Note: Be sure to record the current custom BIOS settings. They

will be cleared and reset to their default values during the BIOS

update portion of the operation. You will need these settings to

configure your computer at the end of the update procedure. To

record the current custom settings, boot the computer and press

F2 when you see the splash screen. Write down the current

custom settings in the BIOS Setup program.
