Flas h (BIO S ) Update Procedure
NOTE:
1. Prepare a bootable DOS diskette disk with AFLASH.EXE, MSG.DAT,
NOTE:
2. Insert the diskette and boot from drive A.
WARNING:
3. At the DO S prompt, type A:> AFLA SH VXXYYZZ.BIN then press Enter.
4. The program updates th e BIOS a ut omatically.
IMPORTANT: :
5. Wait for the update to complete (indicated by the beeps).
WARNING: :
6. Power off syst e m after the BIOS is completely updated.
The flash update procedure does not change the model number and
serial number information in BIOS.
VXXYYZZ.RN and VXXYYZZ.BIN files
The AFLASH.EXE a nd MSG.DAT are f l as h utility pr ograms. The
VXXYYZZ.RN file has t he BIOS checksum information. The
VXXYYZZ.BIN is BIOS source code binary file.
Do not boot with any memory related driver such as HIMEM.SYS,
EMS.SYS....
Verify the BIOS checksu m value shown on s creen is the same
as the one in VXXYYZZ.RN file.
Do not turn off the system power while the BIOS is programming,
or the flas h ROM will be destroyed.

BIOS-contained Model Number and Serial Number
The model number and serial number information is sto r ed in BIOS ROM and
displayed i n the “Model Information” of BIOS Setup ma in m e n u. If a service
repair is com ple ted by repl acing a new system board or a new BIOS ROM,
then you are required to input the original system's model number and serial
number into the new BIOS ROM.
Follow these steps to inpu t the model number and ser i a l number to BIOS:
1. Prepare a bootable DOS diskette with CHGDMI.EXE and MODEL.DMI
files.
2. Insert the diskette and boot from drive A.
WARNING:
3. At the DOS pro mpt, type A:>CH GD MI /W then press Enter. When the

Proceed to t he fol lowing for detai ls o n the parameters under each IDE drive
submenu.
Type This item specifies the number of cylinders, heads, and sectors, and the
size of a particular I DE drive. If no information appears opposite the
parameters, ther e is no drive installed in that channel.
Hard Disk Block Mode This function enhances disk per formance depending
on the hard disk in use. BIOS a ut omat ic all y detects if your hard disk supports
this feature.
Setting to Auto al lows data t ra nsfer in blocks (mult ipl e s ec tors) to increase the
data transfer rate. If your system does not boot after setting this parameter to
Auto, chang e the setting to Disabled. The default setting for this parameter is
Auto.
Advanced PIO Mode The advanced PIO mode feature improves system
performance by allowing the use of faster hard dis k dr ives. If your hard disk
supports this feature, yo u m ay set this p arameter to Auto (default), Mode 0,
Mode 1, Mode 2, Mode 3, or Mode 4 depending on th e hard disk requirements.
See the documenta tion that came with the hard disk.
If your hard disk does not support this function, set this parameter to Disabled.
Hard Disk Size > 528MB This enhan ced IDE feature works only under DOS
and Window s en viro nments. If set to A u to, wh ich is t he default, BIOS allows
you to use a hard disk with a capacity of more than 528 MB. This is made
possible through the Logical Block Address (LBA) mode translation. You may
be required to set this parameter to Disabled if you use other operating
systems.
To prevent data loss, set this parameter to Auto if you are using a hard disk
with more than 528 MB capaci t y t h at was pr eviously configured through the
LBA mode. If you use a hard disk configured through the user-spec ific cylinderhead-sector (CHS) mode, set this parameter to Disabled.

Hard Disk 32-bit Access Setting th is p ara meter to Enabled improves system
performance by allowing the use of the 32-bi t hard disk access. This enhanced
IDE feature only works under Windows 3.x, OS/2, Windows 95, Windows 98,
and Novell NetWare. If your soft ware do es not s upp ort th is fu n cti on, set this
parameter to Disab led. The d efa ult setting is Enabled.
DMA Transfer Mode Setting this DMA Transfer Mode parameter to Auto will
enhance perfor mance by maximizing the data transfer rate for this dr ive. If set
this parameter to Disable, the data transfer rate will be the most safe PIO mode

Disk Drive Control
There are two items under this parameter: Diskette Drive and Hard Disk Drive.
These items allow y ou t o wr i te-protect the floppy disk ette and hard disk drives.
The settings include:
Write Protect All Sectors Disables the write f unction all sectors of the
diskette or hard disk d rive.
Write P rotect B oot Sector Disables t he write f unct ion onl y on the bo ot sector
of the diskette or hard disk d rive.
Normal Allows the diskette or hard disk drive to function normally. This is the

READ THE FOLLOWING:
Human Error is a cause for concern when ap plied to check procedures. It
exists in every first time set of analysis procedur e s. It is therefore
essential for effective an d t im e-ef f i c ient s e rvicing that each stage of
every procedure be verif ied. (For exam pl e : When a sympt o m is found, or
when a symptom appears t o h ave bee n cured; the prece d ing steps
should be repe ated f o r accuracy o f analysis.)

To begin, note the f o llowing:
•
Disable t h e se ttin g of “Fast POST Mode” in BI OS Setup.
•
To disable or reset the power-on password, see “Power-On Password” on
page 11.
•
Disconnect all external cables and devices including speakers and
microphone from the sy s te m unit, exc e pt for the keyboard , mouse, and
monitor.
•
Power off the system unit (unplug the power cord) before moving it or when
replacing FRUs.
•
Remove all ada pter cards, except for the factory-installed mod em adapter
card and any other IBM Aptiva factory-i ns t alled adap ter cards.
•
Disconnect all drives except:

begin the diagnosis from the first failure that appea r ed. T he c au se of the first

CAUTION:
POST:
On Self Test (POST). The machine performs t he P O ST each time it is powered
on. Use this information throughout the diagnos t ic p roc e d u r es . The POST is a
series of system check s and initial izations t hat ver ify the correct operation of
the base system.
After a successful POST, the system attempts to load operating system. The
system can be customized for different startup (boot) methods by the BIOS
Setup Utility. “Startup Options” on page 21.
The system' s de fault st artup sequ en ce automat ically looks for the operating
system files in the hard disk if these files are not found in the diskette.
WARNING:
When you have deemed it necessary to replace a FRU, and have
done so, you must run a total system check to ensure that no other
activity ha s been affe cted by the chang e. T hi s s y stem check can be
done through the di agnostics program (Select Diagnos tics , then select
and execute All Tests from PC-Doctor).

Troubleshooting
Failing Parts or Assemblies:
a problem to one part or assembly. The last step of the specific check
procedure you are using indicates that a part or as s e mbly is failing. You should
inspect the part or assembly before you decide to replace it. It might be loose,
dirty, or in need of a small repair. The check procedures might lead you to two,
or even three, possible failing pa rts or assemblie s . The parts that might be
failing are listed in o r de r of the most probable failure. Also, the FRU parts are
defined as replaced units and are not repaired in the field.
Measuring Voltag es:
voltages on cable plugs and electronic board connectors. If you are asked to
measure voltag e a t sever al p l aces on a p l ug or connector, a chart next to or
near the instruction i nd i c ates the number o f the pl ug or connector, the pin
numbers you should measure, the signal nam e, a nd the correct voltage for the
condition you are measuring. Measure the voltage only at the pins listed in the
chart. Remember t o set the mete r o n the correct scale an d to put the meter
leads in the correct position for the voltag e you are a sked to measure.
NOTE:
Use frame ground as the ground ref e re n ce. Attach th e black (ground)
lead of me t e r to fr a me ground, except where specified otherwise.
Some check procedure steps instruct you to measure
