Typical Motherboard
Flashing the BIOS is the process of updating the BIOS on a motherboard to the latest version released by the manufacturer. Traditionally, flashing the BIOS required downloading the new BIOS to a floppy disk and updating from the floppy in the BIOS. However, with many ASUS motherboards, ASUS has provided a BIOS updater software that can be run within the Windows environment without a floppy.
