POWER EXEC AND FLASH BIOS UPDATE
|
|
|
|
|
|
When updating the Power Exec's Flash BIOS, be sure that no devices are
|
|
attached to the Power Exec's parallel port. Certain devices, (e.g., parallel
|
|
port loopback plug), attached to the parallel port during the BIOS update
|
|
will cause the BIOS loader to fail and issue a beep error code, (Floppy disk
|
|
controller error) of 2 long and 3 short beeps.
|
|
|
|
If this error occurs, be sure to remove any device or loopback plug attached
|
|
to the Power Exec's parallel port and repeat the BIOS update. If the problem
|
|
persists, follow the corrective actions indicated in the AST Power Exec
|
|
Hardware Maintenance Manual (AST part number 001617-001).
