Some BIOS updates may be packaged in compressed files called ROMPaqs. ✎ The BIOS initializes the operating system, determines how the computer will interact with the hardware devices, and provides for information transfer among hardware devices, including the time and date. The computer system BIOS is stored on the system ROM. Some download packages contain a file named Readme.txt, which contains information regarding installing and troubleshooting the file. (Readme.txt files included with ROMPaqs are provided in English only.) You can also access software updates by obtaining the Support Software CD (purchased separately).
