Update Bios Asus Eee Pc X101ch Netbook

The Asus Eee PC X101CH is you can buy for $270 thanks to a Cedar Trail processor, fanless design, decent build quality and instant-on software. But the netbook has a few drawbacks for power users. For instance, it’s nearly impossible to upgrade the RAM.

Just bought a ASUS Eee PC 1015 Netbook. Here are the specs: ASUS Eee PC 1015PEB-BK603 Refurbished Netbook - Intel Atom N450 1.66GHz, 1GB DDR2, 160GB HDD, 6-Cell, 10.1' SVGA, Windows 7 Starter, Black. I've downloaded Ubuntu 11.10 and made a bootable USB pendrive using unetbootin. I thought that by hitting F12 or F1 at startup, I should get a boot menu. Isaac goiz duran. But as soon as I hit the power button, it opens a screen called 'ASUS Express Gate Cloud'.

My hope is to be able to get to a boot menu, boot to the pendrive, and have Ubuntu set up a dual boot with Winoows 7 Starter & Ubuntu 11.10. I tried both holding down and tapping, with ESC and with F2, and neither worked. Then I thought-- perhaps these functions are meant to work AFTER the Express Cloud utility appears, when one selects to go from there to the OS. So I tried pressing ESC there, and found that it makes the screen flash to something that looks like a DOS sort of screen, but as soon as I let go of the ESC button, it boots right up into Win 7 Starter. I tried going to the ASUS website in search of the manual, but looked throughout the website including the support section, and could not find where the manuals are located.

Translations: Upgrading the BIOS (Firmware) of your Eee Disclaimer: The following instructions are tested on some EeePC models. To see a list of models and there upgrade results scroll down to the 'Tested Models' section. If you have experience with an unlisted model or additional experience with a listed model, please edit the page and add your notes. • Download the BIOS image from. Make sure you select the right model. You can optionally use, but this archive does not always have the newest BIOS revisions.

• Prepare an USB drive formatted with FAT16 filesystem. Note that a SD card won't work, unless you insert it in an USB card reader. To format it using FAT16, use mkdosfs -F 16 (tip from twb). If you get an error, you may need to run *fdisk on the USB drive and shrink the partition you're using (16 MB partition seems to work). Yes, it really does need to be FAT16. The simplest way is to use the USB key installer as descibed in. If the updater gets stuck while reading the firmware update file you should try to format the whole USB key as FAT16 without partitioning it, using e.g.

Mkdosfs -F 16 /dev/sdb without a partition number. • Open the downloaded file. It should contain a file named like 701-ASUS-0801.ROM. The 701 part corresponds to the EeePC model.

Copy that file in the root directory of the USB key, and rename it to 701.ROM. Again, 701 corresponds to the model.

If your model is 901, then the download file should contain version.ROM and it should be renamed to 901.ROM when copied on the USB key. • Reboot and press Alt+F2 during the boot. The BIOS updating program will start searching for USB drives, then for a suitably named ROM file. Follow the instructions on the screen. Tested Models 700 (a.k.a. 2G Surf) Model: Download 700-ASUS-0401.zip, extract 700-ASUS-0401.ROM and rename 700.ROM.

Copied 700.ROM to a USB stick. (FAT32 formatted 8GB non-partitioned USB stick was used). Boot the 700 and press Alt+F2. Insert the USB stick and the BIOS update proceeds automatically. Try not to look at it for the several minutes that it appears to be doing nothing.

Once prompted, press the power button. Upon reboot it will request to press F2 to go into setup, as it detects the change in BIOS.

Press F10 to save changes and proceed to normal boot. Successfully updated BIOS from 0207 to 0401. 701SD Model: Got hold of 701SD-ASUS-0602.zip, unpacked it to 701SD-ASUS-0602.ROM, renamed that file to 701SD.ROM. Copied 701SD.ROM to a FAT32-formatted 1G (no need to create neither FAT32-type nor 16MB-sized partition) noname USB-stick.
