AFU (AMI Firmware Update) is a package of utilities used to update the system BIOS under various operating systems. Note: AFU only works for APTIO with SMI FLASH support. Compatible with Aptio 5. The package includes: - AFUWINx64 5.15.04.0098 - AFUWINGUIx64 5.15.04.0098 - AFU User Guide To run, extract all of the files from the folder with the name corresponding to the desired operating system. Usage (applies to AFUWIN, AFUEFI and AFUEFI64... for usage of AFULNX see help files provided in their folders): ------------------------------------------------------------------ AFUEFI <BIOS ROM File Name> [Option 1] [Option 2] Or AFUEFI <Input or Output File Name> <Command> Or AFUEFI <Command> BIOS ROM File Name The mandatory field is used to specify path/filename of the BIOS ROM file with extension.

(*2)If AFU is running on Linux OS and Windows OS, AFU will show this command. (*3)If BIOS Module support, AFU will show this command. (*4)If BIOS project has NVRAM preservation mechanism, AFU /N command cannot fully clear NVRAM data region. To use a command of generic AFU on the Specific platform, please refer to the help menu (/?) in generic AFU. Rules - Any parameter encolsed by < > is a mandatory field. - Any parameter enclosed by [ ] is an optional field. - <Commands> cannot co-exist with any [Options]. - Main BIOS image is default flashing area if no any option present. - [/REBOOT], [/X], and [/S] will enable [/P] function automatically. - If [/B] present alone, there is only the Boot Block area to be updated. - If [/N] present alone, there is only the NVRAM area to be updated. - If [/E] present alone, there is only the Embedded Controller block to be updated. - All options are case-insensitive and have no order.
