Chapter 4: BIOS setup

The ASUS CrashFree BIOS is an auto recovery tool that allows you to restore 

the BIOS file when it fails or gets corrupted during the updating process. You can 

restore a corrupted BIOS file using the motherboard support DVD or a removable 

device that contains the updated BIOS file.

•  Before using this utility, rename the BIOS file in the removable device into 

P5G41E.ROM.

•  The BIOS file in the support DVD may not be the latest version. Download 

the latest BIOS file from the ASUS website at www.asus.com.

•  The removable device that ASUS CrashFree BIOS support vary with 

motherboard models. For motherboards without the floppy connector, 

prepare a USB flash disk before using this utility.

To recover the BIOS:
1.  Turn on the system.
2.  Insert the support DVD to the optical drive or the removable device that 

contains the BIOS file to the USB port or to the floppy disk drive, if supported.

3.  The utility automatically checks the devices for the BIOS file. When found, 

the utility reads the BIOS file and starts flashing the corrupted BIOS file.

4.  Turn off the system after the utility completes the updating process and turn 

on again.

DO NOT shut down or reset the system while updating the BIOS! Doing so can 

cause system boot failure!

Ensure to load the BIOS default settings to ensure system compatibility and 

stability. Select the Load Setup Defaults item under the Exit menu. Refer to 

section 4.8 Exit Menu for details.
