Realmode is the same as DOS. Be very careful about updating your bios. If you use the wrong update, or if you do it incorrectly, or if you have a power failure, you will end up with a very heavy paperweight.

BIOS Updates are usually in the form of a bootable diskette. Put the floppy in the drive, reboot, & FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS EXACTLY.
