Updating your System BIOS
The BIOS version installed on your system appears on the screen while booting the workstation. The following
procedure describes how to update a workstation to the certified BIOS version required by your application.
NOTE Before attempting to update the system BIOS, make sure the SATA Emulation option is properly set,
otherwise your optical drive is not detected.
To update the BIOS on your workstation:
1 Download the latest version of the DKU from Autodesk and extract the tar file into a temporary directory.
2 Go to the /Utils/BIOS subdirectory of the DKU directory.
In the BIOS directory there is a subdirectory for each platform supported by the current version of your
Visual Effects, Finishing, and Colour Grading application.
3 Go to the directory that corresponds to your hardware platform.
The directory contains an .iso disc image file for each supported BIOS version, as well as a README text
file that describes each file, and provides information on updating the BIOS.
4 Burn the correct .iso file to a CD and place it in the DVD-ROM drive on the workstation.
5 Reboot your workstation and press F10 to enter the system BIOS.
6 Optional: Press F8 to select a language.
7 In the Storage menu, select Storage Options, and set SATA Emulation to IDE. This option allows the
BIOS to be updated from a CD.
8 Press F10 to confirm the change.
9 In the File menu, select Save Changes and Exit.
The workstation reboots.
10 Press F10 to enter the BIOS again.
11 In the File menu, select Flash System ROM.
