erased by the SoftPaq.  Before proceeding, make certain the diskette is not 
write protected, does not contain viruses, and does not contain data or 
critical files.

3. From the drive and directory into which the Sofpaq was downloaded, execute 
the downloaded file and follow the on-screen instructions.

4. After the diskette has been created, you may delete the self-extracting file 
downloaded in step 1.

5. To install the video BIOS update, insert the floppy diskette into the A: 
drive of the workstation to be updated and restart the computer.  The computer 
will boot from the diskette.

6. Follow the on-screen instructions.

7. Once the video BIOS update is complete, remove the diskette and cycle power 
to the workstation.
