Compaq 8100 BIOS Flash Q&A White Paper - Page 11

Restart, Cancel

Page 11 highlights

If Next is selected, the BIOS flashing process will begin, and the user is warned not to interrupt the flashing process. Interrupting the flashing process can corrupt the BIOS image. If the BIOS does not update successfully, the business PC would enter flash recovery when rebooted. After the flash process has successfully completed, the PC will be automatically restarted or immediately if the user selects Restart before the timer expires. The user can select Cancel to avoid the restart, but this is not recommended since the updated BIOS image will not be in effect until the PC reboots.
