This package updates the basic input/output system (BIOS) on ThinkCentre 8084, 8085, 8126, 8147, 8148, 8149, 8174, 8175, 8176, 8177, 8178, and 8179 systems.
BIOS is programming that controls low-level hardware operations, including interactions with diskette drives, hard drives, and the keyboard. The BIOS is stored on a chip. Your computer uses flash BIOS, which can be updated through a program on a flash diskette so that you do not have to replace the BIOS chip to update the BIOS.
Note: Make note of any settings you have changed in the BIOS Configuration Utility. These settings may have to be re-entered after updating the BIOS.
