Intel740 Flash ROM Update Utility (VFLASH) v1.4
This utility allows the flash ROM video BIOS devices on Intel740-
based graphics adaptors to be updated.
The VFLASH utility supports the following flash devices:
Intel N28F010
Intel N28F001BX-T
Atmel AT29C010A
SST SST29EE010
Using the flash update requires:
1. The flash utility, vflash.exe
2. The raw image file of the new Video BIOS, e.g. vb206.dat.
The utility must be run from DOS.
To run the utility from the DOS prompt:
1. Copy the vflash.exe file and any video BIOS images (usually ending
in a ".dat" extension) to a floppy disk or to your hard drive.
2. Boot your system to a DOS command prompt. This can be done one of
two ways:
a. If you are in Windows 95 or Windows 98, choose "Shut Down..." from
the Start menu, then choose "Restart in MS-DOS mode".
b. If you are just booting the system, press [F8] as soon as "Starting
Windows 9x..." appears at the top of the screen. When the menu
appears, choose "Command Prompt".
3. Run the program vflash.exe from the location you saved it to.
4. You will be prompted for the name of the video BIOS image. The screen
will blank during flash update and you will be required to reboot the
system for the changes to take effect.
If you are using a non-DOS based operating system, such as Windows NT,
you must run the utility from a bootable floppy disk as described below.
To run the utility in DOS from a bootable floppy disk:
1. You will need to create a bootable floppy disk using the "sys a:"
command from DOS.
2. Copy the files "vflash.exe", "autoexec.bat", and any video BIOS
images that you wish to install (ending in ".dat") to the floppy disk.
3. Restart the system and it will automatically boot up and run the flash
utility.
4. You will be prompted for the name of the Video BIOS image. The screen
will blank during flash update and you will be required to reboot the
system for the changes to take effect.
