How to Update the BIOS in an Asus Laptop
In this video, I show you how to update the BIOS of an Asus laptop - specifically, the Asus VivoBook 15 model M515. However, the procedure will be the same for all recent Asus laptops. There are several methods to update the BIOS, but this tutorial will focus on a utility called EZ Flash 3 that resides in the BIOS itself. One major benefit in using this manual method is that it doesn't depend on a BIOS upgrade program running in Windows, so you don't need to worry about Windows compatibility nor do you even need to run Windows as your operating system.
BIOS updates can introduce new hardware support or more importantly, fix security problems such as the Meltdown and Spectre vulnerabilities. ASUS also recommends updating the BIOS for certain motherboards if you're looking for Windows 11 support. #ASUS #BIOSUpdate

    Macrium Reflect did not work for me. Said there were bad sectors and it was impossible. No suggestions about what to do. Not even saying if the problem was on the source or the receive disc. Used another program (EaseUS Partition Manager) worked perfectly. It cost money but it works.

    Very very detailed walk-through. Love the tone and abit of humor. Fast forward to 2024 a see alot of people replacing the internal itx logic to something way faster but that defeats the purpose. I wonder if I install openmediabox it would be any faster as it requires min 1gb ram. I have a few kiosk demo screens with 15' lcd + intel Atom logics with 1gb ram + 4GB CF card.

    I upgraded mine about 5 years ago to Windows Server. From memory I used a USB Stick with automated install. I installed some Drive Pool software. At the time I was sure tha max drive was 4TB though so it is great that you have managed to get more. Your solution is better as it uses native Windows pooling. My battery is dead now so the clock keeps slipping out of sync. Going to replace the battery to squeeze a few more months out of it but starting to think of a replacement. Great device. Glad I got it all those years ago.

    @machelvet9594 2 місяці тому

    2:26 For some reason I couldn't delete my partitions. If your goal is to get an empty disk in order to use it for some other purpose, then the easiest way at this point (2:26) is to type: "clean" and press enter. This will clean up the selected drive. There are two things you have to be absolutely sure about: 1. Make sure that you have selected the disk you want to "clean" (here is how 2:16). 2. DO NOT "clean" the disk with your running OS!
