BIOS update process
BIOS update process
During a BIOS update, one of the first status messages is "save old bios to backup file". Does anyone know where the backup is or what it is called?

Re: BIOS update process
In 'older' BIOS updates, the backup was written onto the floppy disk.
Not possible when you use a CD.
If done from within Windows, check for the latest entries with a matching timestamp anywhere on the HD.
