Technology s patented DualBIOS technology you can reduce the possibility of hangs during system boot up and or loss BIOS data due to above reasons This new technology will eliminate valuable system down time and costly repair bills cause by BIOS failures 33 Dual BIOS Introduction III Q How does DualBIOS technology work Answer 1 DualBIOS M technology provides a wide range of protection during the boot up procedure It protects your BIOS during system POST ESCD update and even all the way to PNP detection assignment DualBIOSTM provides automatic recovery for the BIOS When the first BIOS used during boot up does not complete or if a BIOS checksum error occurs boot up Is still possible In the DualBIOS utility the Auto Recovery option will guarantee that if either the main BIOS or backup BIOS is corrupted the DualBIOSTM technology will use the good BIOS and correct the wrong BIOS automatically DualBIOSTM provides manual recovery for the BIOS DualBIOS technology contains a built in flash utility which can flash your system BIOS from backup to main and or visa versa There is no need for an OS dependent flash utility program DualBIOSTM contains a one way flash utility The built in one way flash utility will ensure that the corrupt BIOS is not mistaken as the good BIOS during recovery and that the correct BIOS main vs backup will be flashed This will prevent the good BIOS from being flashe

25. d IV Q Who Needs DualBIOS technology Answer 1 Every user should have DualBIOS technology due to the advancement of computer viruses Everyday there are new BIOS type viruses discovered that will destroy your system BIOS Most commercial products on the market do not have solutions to guard against this type of virus intrusion The DualBIOS technology will provide a state of the art solution to protect your PC Case Vicious computer viruses may wipe out your entire system BIOS With a conventional single system BIOS PC the PC will not be functional until it is sent for repairs Case ll If the Auto Recovery option is enabled in the DualBIOSTM utility and if a virus corrupts your system BIOS the backup BIOS will automatically reboot the system and correct the main BIOS Case III A user may override booting from the main system BIOS The DualBIOS utility may be entered to manually change the boot sequence to boot from the backup BIOS 34 6VXD7 Motherboard 2 During or after a BIOS upgrade if DualBIOS detects that the main BIOS is corrupt the backup BIOS will take over the boot up process automatically Moreover it will verify the main and backup BIOS checksums when booting up DualBIOSTM technology examines the checksum of the main and backup BIOS while the system is powered on to guarantee your BIOS operates properly 3 Power Users will have the advantage of having two BIOS versions on their mainboar
