Embedded Firmware Submenu

Use this submenu to enable or disable firmware updates at startup. Normally, you do not need to modify these settings, as the factory default settings provide the most compatible and optimal configuration possible.

• Current Firmware Version—This item displays the firmware version currently installed.
• Available Firmware Version—This item displays the firmware version available.
• Embedded Firmware Programming Mode—This setting specifies whether firmware updates are performed at startup. When enabled, the BIOS checks to see if an older version of the firmware is currently installed and provides the option to update the firmware. When disabled, the BIOS does not check the firmware. The default value is Enabled.
