Flash Phoenix
BIOS 77.15
Startup functions on a computer's motherboard are controlled by software called the "Basic Input Output System" (BIOS). Phoenix is a brand of BIOS firmware that you can update using the official Phoenix-Award BIOSAgentPlus utility. This utility will scan the current software, download updates for the BIOS and allow you to "flash" the BIOS to install the updates to the Phoenix firmware.
Instructions
1. Navigate to the BIOSAgentPlus website and download the free utility (see Resources).
2. Double-click the BIOSAgentPlus utility to begin the scan. This will automatically scan the computer and report outdated firmware for the motherboard.
3. Click the "Download" icon to download updated BIOS files.
4. Unzip the .zip file that the BIOSAgentPlus program downloaded and extract the files to a location you can easily find.
5. Run Phoenix's "WinPhlash" program on the computer. This usually comes pre-installed on computers with the Phoenix BIOS and is found under the "Programs" folder of the Start menu.
6. Click the "Browse" button next to "Specify new BIOS."
7. Browse to the location of the .WPH BIOS file you downloaded using BIOSAgentPlus, then double-click the file to load it.
8. Click the "Flash BIOS" button and allow the program to update the BIOS files.
9. Reboot the computer when prompted.
10. Press the "Del" or "F1" key and save the CMOS settings if the computer prompts you on startup. The computer should now load with the updated Phoenix BIOS.
