Hello
I followed MSI's guide for socket A= K7TM(Pro): MS-6340 motherboard micro-ATX.
I launched the win98 boot floppy diskette. OK.
- I enter C:\test\AWFL789.EXE and it started the photo* attached.
- What is this "FILE NAME TO PROGRAM" to update the BIOS to V4.7 ?
- What exactly to write into the empty slot ?

"7. When you get the A:\ prompt, type the following sequence:
C: <enter>
cd\test <enter>
C:\test> awdfl783m BIOS file
(to save or not to save old BIOS is the user’s decision)
8. Reboot your system when prompted"

Whatever file name you want - I would suggest something like "MS6340.430" because you are saving the old version of the BIOS file.

This is assuming you are booting from floppy, so that there's somewhere to actually save the file to.
