(Page 4 of 4 )
By now, you should have finished creating the bootable USB flash drive with which you can/will flash your BIOS. This step-by-step guide was mostly written for the high number of requests that I’ve received since the first BIOS flashing how-to article was published. Having said this, hopefully, this guide also fulfills its purpose.
As mentioned earlier, this article is part of a bigger picture, mainly a 4-part article series of which it’s the second part. Be sure to stop by for the upcoming segments as well, because you won’t want to miss the next two parts either.
They will cover lots of useful techniques from hooking up your bootable flash drive with “live” on-the-fly operating systems such as Linux distros or Microsoft Windows XP/Vista. Then the final part will lead you through the process of creating a techie’s thumb drive jam-packed with nifty utilities and tools that can aid you throughout your troubleshooting endeavors. Working with flash drives is faster than burning RW CDs.
