Updating the BIOS with the Iflash Memory Update Utility  
With the Iflash BIOS update utility you can update the system BIOS from a diskette or other 
bootable media.  The utility available from the Web provides a simple method for creating a 
bootable flash memory update diskette that will automatically update your BIOS. 
Obtaining the BIOS Update File 
You can update to a new version of the BIOS by using the BIOS update file.  The BIOS update file 
is a compressed self-extracting archive that contains all the files you need to update the BIOS.  The 
BIOS update file contains: 
•  New BIOS files 
•  BIOS recovery files 
•  Intel Flash Memory Update Utility 
You can obtain the BIOS update file through your computer supplier or by navigating to the 
Desktop Board D975XBX page on the Intel World Wide Web site at:  
Navigate to the D975XBX page, click “[view] Latest BIOS updates,” and select the Iflash BIOS 
Update utility file.
